Nice hotel near water but room is plain. Bathroom shower design can only get in one way so you can easily walk in with totally soaked by cold water or hot water. Also, the shower head is designed for very tall people. My husband is 6’1, and he can’t even adjust it.

For the price of a golf view room (which was across the parking lot and the street over looking the garbage lot as well (if you get the end unit) and bright and early Friday morning the truck comes to pick up!

The property is nice. It’s right on the river. However, what you look at is cranes and lots of construction equipment. The view from the hotel is not nice at all. The thing that really upset me was the prices at the hotel for food. A soft pretzel was $25. Come on. That is totally outrageous. The most ridiculous thing about the hotel was there was no dresser in the room. It was crazy. I had to put my clothes in the small drawer of the night stand. Good thing we only stayed for 3 nights and didn’t have a lot of extra clothes with us. The room was very nice and the bed was comfortable. We paid $995 for a 3 night stay. That is a lot of money and you would expect at least a place to put your clothes and free breakfast.

⸻ We stayed at this lovely inn while celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and had a wonderful experience. The room was very clean and the whole place had a peaceful, quiet atmosphere—perfect for a relaxing getaway. It’s also in a great location, just a short drive or walk to downtown St. Joseph, which made exploring the area super convenient. The staff were warm and welcoming throughout our stay. The only minor downside was that the pool could have been a bit cleaner, but overall we had no complaints. We’d absolutely stay here again!

First Class Experience

Great experience: our room was ready early and was clean, spacious, nicely decorated and comfortable, we loved the balcony. Staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. We found the menu at Planks disappointing but what we eventually ordered was delicious. The best amenity is the free shuttle service to downtown St. Joe and excellent drivers, Dave and Tom.
