"Incredibly amazing once again! I have been traveling for a few months all over the US. As a southern girl the last place I'd expect to land is the Upper Peninsula, and I'm so glad I did! Because of the beautiful story about Carla & Dougs start, 45 years ago, (ask them it's an inspiring story! ) their extremely kind heats, willingness to assist me with everything & offering insightful advice; I fell in love with them & Baraga! This is my second trip with them inside of a month, I've officially begun making arrangements to call this future winter wonderland home. All it took was sincere acts of kindness to make this once foreign place feel like home. This place is representative of their story, their life and the community. It's special, charming, cozy & warm. Its NOT like those ridiculously overpriced outfits and I personally am glad! I've never slept better than right here. It's welcoming inviting and a long standing piece of history over looking the beautiful bay! Stepping back in time here at Carlas Lakeshore Motel has been magical & appreciated. I admire them both and will absolutely see them again! Thank you Carla and Doug for continuing to be so kind, for remaining in business for 45 years growing more and succeeding! Thank you for your absolutely perfect mom & pop motel! You both changed my future in a positive way. This world needs more people like you both. :-)"
