Top Traverse City Hotel Reviews

ParkShore Resort

ParkShore Resort

8/10 Good
"The property is very nice; so is the staff. The location was good. The room was comfortable. The hot breakfast was yummy. There were minor issues regarding cleanliness and room care. Also, the pool was chilly. The biggest negative was that the hot tub was only lukewarm and with very minimal jet propulsion, so that was very disappointing. (It is the off season so maybe that played a part, not sure). The ducks outside the door were very noisy in the morning (but cute). They appeared to be looking for food as the came right up to me on the deck. I wouldn’t likely swim in the water in warmer weather given the number of ducks in it. The attached restaurant had good pizza and excellent service. Overall I liked the hotel and enjoyed our stay. "
