STAYING AT MICHILLINDA IS PARADISE! TO HEAR THE LAPPING
OF THE WAVES OF LAKE MICHIGAN
AND THE WIND WHISTLING THROUGH THE TREES IS SO ZEN
AND SO DELIGHTFUL!!!
ALMOST EVERY UNIT HAS A DIRECT
VIEW OF AND/OR OVERLOOKS THE LAKE. THERE ARE CHARMING ACCOMMODATIONS WITH MANY
DIFFERENT CONFIGURATIONS!
THE STAFF IS FABULOUS ~ EXTREMELY COMPETENT AND SO HELPFUL, FRIENDLY, & PLEASANT.
THE GROUNDS ARE TENDERLY TENDED TO UTMOST PERFECTION;
OFFERING MANY VARIETIES OF SENTINEL TREES, FLOWERING
BUSHES, SHRUBS, AND FLOWERS!
A TRUE OASIS. HARD TO LEAVE!
Love the location and access to the beach, shopping and dining.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
View is great no hair dryer rooms are not private ( hear everything from adjoining rooms cobwebs on nightstand lights one paper cup in room for coffee I love the view looking over Lake Michigan
This property far exceeded my expectations, it has beautiful views, a small swimming beach, sand dunes for viewing, a clean pool, sitting areas with lake views, and overall spacious. Can’t wait to stay again!
This place is not a 5-star upscale hotel. But, if you have found this place, then you know that is not what you are looking for!
We stayed in Annex 29 which is on the 3rd floor of the Annex building. They do not have an elevator so be prepared for the stairs. The one attached picture was the view out of our larger room. That is why you are staying here! Also, there were no TVs inside our suite. Just the more reason to go outside! (I do not know if the cabins had TVs or not.) If you opt for the individual cabins, it did not look like you would have to deal with stairs at all.
The other picture was from their deck at sunset. It was very peaceful and relaxing.
The entry road is lined with tall trees and just sets the mood. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. They have plenty of outdoor activities along with an outdoor pool.
What an awesome location! Beautiful views just steps away from our room!
We stayed in the chalet- it was quiet & comfy. Plenty of space for 4 adults + 2 teens. One bed was not so comfy- sank right in. 2 small bathrooms, 2 small coffee pots (w/ coffee/cups/creamer provided), & 2 little fridges. Outdoor steps had a couple areas that looked like they needed some attention soon.
Staff was great. Super easy checkin/out.
They have so many things to do- tennis, pool, playground, volleyball, basketball, etc.
Charcoal grills available & 1st floor of chalet is a public kitchen & gaming area open on weekends. It is very noisy upstairs in the chalet when people are coming/going or playing pool.
Wood fire pizza guy comes on Wed. $12 for a pizza. There was also a cornhole tourn. We walked over to nearby Duck market a lot thru a little path in the woods. They have about anything you’d need plus hot foods (chili dog, walking taco, breakfast sandwiches), & ice cream!
There is a great deck overlooking water/sunset. Very peaceful & amazing sunsets! There was a small beach area now since water levels are currently low but it’s kinda rocky. I highly recommend nearby Duck Lake park!
Met some other guests who have been coming back to stay every year for 20+ years!
Can’t wait to go back!!
Really great place! Clean, comfortable, friendly, and outstanding sunset views over the Big Lake. A food/drink option on property would be great, and a partition on the shared balcony for privacy too, but overall this was a great stay!
We had a one night stay with our family of four, and I wish we had booked at least one more just to spend a day on e property. This is a gorgeous spot next to Lake Michigan. It’s secluded yet close enough to town that you can go out for a nice meal and pick up any supplies you may need. The room was plenty big enough for us and our two young children with a walk out patio and excellent view of the lake. The room was exceptionally clean. The bed was very comfortable and the kids said they slept great on the pull out couch. The property is a gem, set back from the main road and the driveway lined with antique lanterns. Overall this was an exceptional place for our stay!

We’ve stayed at the Michillinda Lodge twice in the last few years and it’s a great and unique old property. Great views of Lake Michigan, great little covenience store (that has almost everything) within walking distance, close to golf and Whitehall/Montigue, and lots of family friendly activities. Our room was good - bathroom in our room was REALLY tight on toilet/shower placement and toilet seat was unsteady. This was a very minor issue in our room abd everything else was great!
Awesome view of the Lake. Very well maintained and I will love to go back.

Our first night was horrible We tried to go to sleep at 11 at night but there were people who worked there and stayed there we found out the next day above us that stayed up till like 1 in the morning Impossible to fall asleep The owners the next day moved us to a much quieter space The grounds are Beautiful Our daughters rented cabins E and F Our youngest daughter is in a wheelchair so cabin was accessible with ramp and she had her own personal ramps so good for her to get in and out of Beautiful for grandkids to play on playground Amenities were just right for An Awesome Weekend🙏💙
The lodge is beautiful and peaceful. It is super family-friendly! No TVs which means you're out doing activities and enjoying the beautiful setting. We did not want to leave! If we're ever on the westside of Michigan will definitely stay again.
