Super comfortable
One of the most comfortable beds ever!! I will say it’s odd that I can get far better prices online than at the hotel (in person). Someone in charge should resolve that else I would have stayed another night.

The stay at the Sugar Beach Resort was great. The service was very good and the room had a great view of Lake Michigan. We will make sure that we stay there in the future trips to Traverse City.

Expedia really dropped the ball with our reservation. Ended up costing us quite a bit of additional money to transfer to the room we did in fact book, despite what was said when speaking with customer service. The hotel did all they could to make our stay pleasant and transfer smooth despite Exerian's mess up. Will not be using again and would not recommend.
