Everything was really quite perfect. The only criticism that I can offer is that the TV though it’s a huge TV and it’s beautiful. It doesn’t have reception good enough that when you’re trying to watch something every couple of minutes it has to stop and reboot so I would only say that the TV service you either take it out or you get a service that people can watch full movies and TV shows without waiting Every two minutes to see or hear what you were watching thank you you

We spent two nights at The Birchy. Absolutely loved it! Bed was so comfortable. The room was very clean and spacious. The view of the lake was beautiful. It was quiet and check-in/out was easy. We will definitely stay there again!

Loved that it was so close to Marquette without being downtown. The view of the lake was beautiful! The only drawback was our room was never serviced. So no fresh towels. Our stay was 4nights.

The pool is empty and not being repaired. No beach access, either. I told them it was a problem becase we would have picked a different motel. She said. "Sorry." Most rooms have a balcony or patio. Ours had neither.

Nice bed!

The bed was incredibly comfortable. The lake view room had a better view of the highway than the lake. The highway and the air conditioner were loud. The birches in the picture are only visible from the parking area. Very clean and comfortable.

Nice place. Clean. Odd because there's no human contact. Not what I'm used to in the U.P. Also, if the establishment says it has a pool, it should be in working order. (Not sure I would have stayed had I known it wasn't even filled with water. Annoying, and false advertising.) Other than that, a really decent place,if not a little overpriced for what you get....more like a hostel. Good to know it's in Marquette for future stays. Fix the pool, or take it off your ads. 5 yr old wasn't happy

Pretty updated space. Love the waterview. Nice easy check-in process. Wish there was vending and more shower pressure. The window air-conditioner was a little loud, but all and all pretty much a perfect night for tge price point

The Birchy is a unique property & close to beaches & dining. Pretty view of lake from balcony . Beds were extra extra comfy & the modern design & little touches like huge thick towels & travel sized quality shampoos & bath products . The room was spacious & has a good size smart TV ... loved it ! Looks like they thought of everything!

The pictures are deceiving. This property is not maintained, the room was dinghy, pool was empty with weeds growing around it, there was no “adventure” gear except bicycles, towels were worn, bathroom door was broken, and overall it was a dump. The only positives were the location and fast response when we asked for more towels and to have the bathroom door fixed. It is a beautiful property on Lake Superior, but very neglected. I would not stay here again.

The birchy is a very nice modern facility that gives you great access to downtown Marquette and the surrounding area. The room was very clean. The bed was very comfortable. The ice machine was very helpful. I loved having Thimbleberry bushes in the parking lot. That made my day. The bikes that they had available were very nice although I was very nervous. Crossing the very busy highway that is in the front yard. Overall, I give the facility two thumbs up. We will be back.
