Stayed for just one night on a weekend in October. Took a drive to the UP to see the fall colors. This hotel is right on the channel with great views up and down the channel. There was a nice outdoor seating area behind the hotel and right along the channel. There were also multiple docks with benches and grilles.... More

This is right on the water in Houghton and so close to Michigan Tech. It is right in town by everything. The rooms are nice size and clean. The breakfast is good also. We did not go swimming, but the pool indoors, large and very clean. There are places to sit outside the hotel by the water to enjoy the... More

The room was clean and quiet, the parking a bit tight (the hotel was fully booked), the views from the deck made breakfast really nice, the location a bit hidden from the road, the check in person and the check out person were both rude and not concerned with guest satisfaction. If you make it in and out OK, the... More

This motel was clean and comfortable. It's location on the channel in Houghton is beautiful. The breakfast room overlooks the water with a very nice view. My only complaint was a rather unhelpful clerk when I checked in. The people around the next morning were much friendlier. More

Yeah its a Super 8, and the rooms aren't like boutique or anything, but the location is awesome!!! Right on the water, and they have several little docks that you can sit and enjoy the views. They also have a nice deck that you can eat breakfast on if you want. We walked to dinner at Library Brewery (would also... More

My husband stays in Houghton on business frequently. We came along for the ride. We stayed in room 118 (which is the largest). The view was beautiful! There is a trail right in front of the window, but people were nice enough not to stare into the rooms. The price was right and the room was clean and spacious. We... More

I made a reservation here for a short family trip. When calling a month before our arrival to extend our reservation for another two nights, the clerk was unable to find my original reservation and had to rebook the entire stay. Not a big deal, but odd. When we arrived, we were given a "non-smoking" room that absolutely reeked of... More

This is a clean, tidy, budget motel in a great location, right on the water. It's a good deal for the price. Nothing fancy, but you're only minutes from downtown Houghton, good restaurants, and area parks. Nice, hot jacuzzi spa and sauna near the indoor pool. More

Super place to stay for attending Mich. tech. Graduation. View of the ski hill as well as the Portage Canal made Super 8 the perfect choice. More

You can't beat the price for the location. Right on the water, and walking distance to both down town and MTU campus. There is probably much nicer places to stay but you need to consider the price. We've stayed here a couple of times, all we're looking for is a bed in a clean room and great location. The only... More
