We had an amazing stay! This is an older motel with lots of charm - exactly what we're looking for when we come to the beautiful U.P. of Michigan! There's a few things that need minimal work but the owner is on it!! The grills provided were a huge plus for us! A fire pit, (wasn't advertised but is available) cleaning lady is SUPER friendly & helpful, as is the staff at the gas station -convenience store literally steps away! The bathrooms are very small but again, not a problem for us. The beach is beyond beautiful and endless! ⚠️ The aroma of the pasties wafting in the air each morning brings on a ferocious appetite! Fred, the owner is just out of this world WONDERFUL to work with!!! The entire area is just beautiful and has the friendliest people ever!!! We booked 2 rooms for 3 days, 1 for one day and extended one of the two bedrooms (which is actually two bedrooms with doors that close) for an extra night to continue exploring. AuTrain has MUCH less traffice than Munising or Marquette (which are both beautiful & worth venturing to) that we had a much quieter, more relaxed visit with everything and more to offer than the more populated areas. I'd suggest lock boxes with codes for keys for those arriving late. Wasn't a problem for us but an elderly woman was a little confused. Also, book direct - not through expedia, etc. Better rates & GREAT service! Thank you, Fred & ALL the staff at AuTrain Motel for an absolutely wonderful stay!!! We'll definitely be back!!!
