Great staff at the desk and housekeeping did a great job each day cleaning up. Just a short walk to the beach and lighthouse. Also a short walk to shops and dining. Donuts in lobby each morning were great. Would love to come back. About 35 minutes to Sleeping Bear Dunes entrance.

We stayed at Harbor Lights Resort during a few stints my husband worked at the local hospital last month, February. We've come across this resort many times during the summer as well and the location is gorgeous!! Its proximity to local restaurants the beach and shops is perfect!! We were so happy with the customer service, the room, the amenities, nice kitchen, bathroom fireplace. Its a great place to stay we give it a 12 out of 10. We stayed in the 1 bedroom suite. We will definitely be back!!
