What guests say
8.5 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 336 guest reviews
Empire Lakeshore Inn earns consistently strong marks for its spotless, modern rooms and unbeatable proximity to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and surrounding attractions, with the vast majority of guests saying they would return. The main friction points are the relatively high nightly rate for a no-frills property that lacks a pool or breakfast, occasional noise bleed through thin walls, and a handful of minor maintenance niggles. Overall sentiment is warmly positive, with cleanliness and location standing out as near-universal highlights.
