Birchwood Lodge

Really lovely stay at Birchwood. Location is perfect and walking distance from many shops and restaurants - even a supermarket. Room was very spacious and super clean.

Stayed in one of the village homes, 2 bed 2 bath. As everyone else says, location is great, easy walk to downtown and very quiet. The home we were in was good size but the shower cabinet in the second bathroom is tiny. I know these privately owned condos but if the owners are renting them out as part of Birchwood lodge, there should be some standard expectations. The door on that bathroom also didn’t lock. Given they have a washer and dryer in those units, they should also provide laundry tabs and dryer sheets. Not sure what the situation is with housekeeping as I thought at check-in it said it was daily up until 3pm and if anything was needed after that, to call front desk. They did come in on the first day we were there, didn’t show up the next day and then I was called the next two days to see if I wanted them to come in. When they did show up, it was 3 people and they spent probably less than 10 minutes in the unit. Only went into both bedrooms and bathrooms, did nothing in the kitchen, didn’t brush or vacuum any floor space. Tennis court is in serious need of repair. Huge cracks on the surface which causes an issue. I know that would be an expense and the use of the court generate any income, but if you have it, maintain it.

The rooms were really clean, there was a kitchenette, and cups and silverware in the little kitchenette. They have a very clean snd heated indoor and outdoor pool and hot tub. A 1/2 block walk to the beach for great sunsets and swimming, downtown sister bay with all the restaurants, coffee shops, ice cream, shopping and outdoor bars. Located along a bike trail near mini golf and go-carting. Wonderful trip and location!

We have stayed at Birchwood Lodge 25ish times since 2020. The lodge is well maintained, clean, up-to-date, and has many room types from which to choose. Whether you are a single twosome, a group of couples, a family, or a large group in town for an event, I believe Birchwood will have a configuration that works for you. It is at the entrance to Sister Bay, which makes it optimal to walk into town for food, drink, to shop, or hang at the beach/marina. We especially appreciate this location Just for these reasons. But Above All, we Love the staff at this establishment!!! The general manager is the friendliest, most professional person (hi, Roman!)...and it reflects throughout the staff. I have had awesome greetings & conversations with Many of the professionals that work here. I always feel welcomed & cared for. I sincerely cannot recommend a stay here enough.

Boyfriend and I are repeat guests and stayed over Labor Day. The best thing about this place is the location -- walking distance to everything (gym, groceries, church, marina), yet far away from all the weekend music in downtown. The air conditioner is quite loud when it runs, but sleeping with the windows open wasn't much better, as there was quite a bit of traffic noise from the road. As others have mentioned, the decor could use some updating, but the kitchenette features are great -- we made every meal here for our 5 day stay. Large fridge, but definitely needs a freezer to re-freeze packs for the cooler. Could also use some towel bars near the sinks (had to drip water across the floor to reach towels on the far opposite wall), and either USB ports or outlet extenders by the beds, as there was no place to plug in and charge a phone. Grills out back were great, but none of the directions for use mention checking if the gas line switch is open. I certainly had no idea about this, the young gal at the desk didn't know, and when she called Roman, he didn't suggest it either. Fortunately, another repeat guest was able to help out. Would love it if the sauna and jacuzzi stayed open until 10 pm on weekends (closes at 9), and can't wait until they update the locks, as the old fashioned keys are a bit of a pain to carry in a slim wallet. Overall a really good stay, and we will be back.

First time staying at Birchwood and it exceeded expectations. Everything was clean and very well kept. Location is perfect - walking distance to everything in Sister Bay yet far enough away from all the noise. Would definitely stay here again.

On the plus side, this hotel has a good location close to downtown. Pools and sauna were nice. However, our room needed updating. We had a window unit for air conditioning. Updating needed, flooring, paint, blinds. Most of all lighting. Our room was very dark.

We really enjoyed our stay at Birchwood Lodge. The location at the south end of Sister Bay was very convenient, but out of the way of the traffic and noise along the shore, with spacious and quiet grounds. Both indoor and outdoor pools were a plus. The room was spacious and interestingly arranged, with the king bed separated from the living room by wall. The mini-kitchen was adequate, although a real coffee maker would have been nice. One of the more attractive features is the cleanliness! So clean and fresh that it appeared to have been recently renovated. All due to a cadre of cleaners sweeping over the site every morning. We'll come again.

We've stayed at Birchwood Lodge a few times now but it has been years (probably 8) since we stayed last. Everything is still the same as before. No new updates since. Its starting to get a little outdated. The room had a little smell to it but not bad. They could replace the beds. None of us slept well the 2 nights we stayed here. We also stayed at 3 other places on this trip and we all slept better at the other hotels. The pull out sofa was not comfortable at all. The light above the whirlpool was not working. The mini fridge didn't have a freezer portion so we couldn't re freeze our freezer packs for our cooler. The price was ok for peak season in Door County. We would stay again as we haven't found anything better for the price.
