    Mark,
    My wife and I stayed there 3 years ago. We ( by your description) luckily passed on the "all inclusive" option opting to use Gates Lodge's restaurant. This dude hasn't a clue as to what is at least basically needeed to attract new and returning guests. AND, my description of our experience there is NOT exxagerated. We did have holes (larger) under the carpet and the place does look like Sanford and Son's place. I think we'll stay in town where the Savages ( yes, wild folks ) stay.

    I have been well-treated by the folks at the Woodland-Motorlodge (http://woodland-motel.com/) . I would recommend you get a place off the highway if available as the highway which goes by it becomes well traveled by the break of day. The Savages have a place reserved there also. They're the quiet Savages BTW unless you pick on Jean.

    Brad,
    "And people wonder why we book a year in advance at Gates...." At our tender age, we are reluctant to buy green bannanas much less book Gates THAT far in advance.

    PS: But in this case, I wish we had made earlier reservations. We've aways enjoyed Gates even when Castwell would order the last two orders of Perch Dinner ( for himself) and we had to opt for deep fried minnows.

    My I Suggest Pointe North of Grayling Motel. Rusty suggested it to me. It was Clean and comfortable.
