Balcony offered a great view. It was wonderful listening to the waves and seeing the sun in the morning. The jacuzzi tub was awesome. Best I have ever had.
The bed was not the best. I would give it 3.5 stars. The room was nice and clean and the staff were overall friendly.
We love this hotel and have great experiences everytime!

The room was really clean, loved the hot tub. There were kids running in the halls though, not the hotels fault but it was a bit disturbing. It’s too bad parents don’t parent like they should.
I really enjoyed my stay at Bayshore Resort! One night here and you'll understand how they earn a perfect 5 star rating from nearly every guest. Pay a little extra for a room that overlooks Grand Traverse Bay - worth every penny to wake up to a view like that.
Great stay, from front desk check in to room to comfy beds, to free shuttle, Beautiful bay view. Just amazing. Fun courteous staff working there. Thank you

The whole stay was amazing. The room, the beds so comfy, staff, walk out to the beach. The arcade room!!!
Bayshore is beyond excellent. BUT if you want shiny new, soft gray and the latest
stone countertops….pay more and enjoy at one of the newest “latest and greatest” lodging venues off the TC runway.
Bayshore is solid five star in all areas. It is just comfortable. And, right on the Bay w/a beach. I love to watch the Michigan black squirrels bury nuts in the sand.
Bayshore is nestled next to the brand new TC Senior Center and next to that the Maritime Academy. What’s not to like?
