Pets can not be left in the room unless in a dog kennel and are not allowed on the beds. If you show up with a pet for a room that does not allow pets you will forfeit your room and one nights lodging fee.

SNOWMOBILES YOU WILL NEED A MICHIGAN TRAIL PERMIT, ALSO A WISCONSIN PERMIT IF RIDING IN WISCONSIN

Michigan trail permits are $35.00

Wisconsin permits are $35.00

In Ironwood snowmobiles may not operate between 1:00 am. And 6:00 am. On city streets. What this means is you have to be back to the motel by 1:00 am.

If you stay in Ironwood and ride to Wisconsin you will need a Michigan ORV Permit.

You have to wear a helmet to ride a ATV in Michigan it's the law.

We do have a few rules for ATVers.

1. Because the towels get so dirty (will not come clean from the iron ore) you have to bring your own towels to use.

2. We have rags you can use do not use our towels to clean up mud.

3. There will be a hose in the back yard that you can use to hose down your wheeler and yourself so we can keep the mud out of the parking lot and the rooms.

4. There will be plastic on the floor in the rooms so you can put your dirty riding clothe and boots on so as to keep the carpet, furniture and room clean. The iron ore and mud from the trails is very hard to get off the carpets etc. I'm sure you do this at home.

5. If you need we will have garbage bags available to store your dirty clothe and boots in to help keep the rooms clean.

6. Please remove your riding clothe and boots outside before entering the rooms.

7. You have to park your atv's on the grass as not to get the parking lot dirty.

We are not trying to be a pain in your back side but as you know it is very hard to get the mud etc. out of carpets and such. Thanks Sam and Anne

In summer there is lot's of waterfalls to visit through out the area the best along the Black River Scenic Byway. Copper Peak the largest man made ski jump in the world standing 240 feet above ground with a vista of 3 states. Then there is the shoreline of Lake Superior with its sandy beaches where one can look for agates. The best places to get to the beach's are Black River Harbor and Little Girl's Point. Don't forget the Porkie Pine Mts. State Park just 50 miles away, with the famous vista of Lake of the Clouds. They also offer many miles of hiking trails. Mt Bikers we offer many miles of backwoods road to enjoy and the area is starting to add MT Bike trail systems. Golfers we have 4 courses to choose from one North of Bessemer is very nice and new it's 9 holes, a little short but narrow. Then there are two 18 hole courses one in Ironwood Gogebic Country Club and Eagle Bluff in Hurley. Our newest golf course is Sky View at White Cap Mountain, from what I have heard it will be one of the best courses in the Midwest when its totally finished. It's a must play if you are a avid golfer and in the area it will take your breath away.

In the winter we offer a large parking area for snowmobile trailers along with a heated workshop in case you have to work on your sled. You can ride from your door to the trails. Our area offers a 1000 miles of groomed trails down railroad grades and through beautiful woods. The big plus about our area verses other areas how easy it is to get to the trails, food, gas, etc. Most other areas leave you scratching your head as how to get some place. The other big thing our area does not do is close up at 9:00 PM. and leave you stranded to find food or a drink. Trail permits available at the office along with trail maps. I'm an avid Snowmobiler so I can help with planning a ride if you so desire, I also help the local snowmobile club.
