We weren’t even able to check in because no one would answer the door or the phone! I could hear it ringing and there were lights on and vehicles out front but no answer. We had been on the road for hours and were happy to arrive. The pictures of this motel are very misleading. It’s a dump and I’m actually grateful they didn’t answer the door because I read other reviews online and apparently there are many issues with this property.

Just terribly dated rooms. No air conditioning, musty smell, toliet seat hanging on by one hinge
Looked like the rooms havent been upgraded since the 70s. Parking is vague, with locals helping themselves to paying customers spots. Mattresses were super thin, hardly like a real bed mattress. Overpriced for $85 a night.

Clean, friendly, 60s vibe
Posted 19 Aug 2018 on HotelsFirst let me say we were not expecting a high class hotel. I was returning to Houghton Lake after nearly 50 years to an area where my family vacationed through the 60s (the resort now long gone). I wanted a place right on the lake and within walking distance to some restaurants, and I also wanted a place that would give me a sense of connection to the past. Korbinskis fit the bill. The vibe of the room was clearly something from days gone by which was fine with me, but others might not appreciate the worn look. Everything was clean. The managers were very nice and even let us check in early. While the rooms are outdated at best, the outdoor areas are pretty and flower-filled with chairs and picnic tables and an artesian spring. There's a small but nice beach area with toys. The lake is very shallow for a long way out so it's good for kids to have fun wading. We could walk to a few restaurants and a produce market, and if we had stayed longer we could have rented a boat at the marina. If you want a modern room, look elsewhere. If you want a bit of old 60s kitsch that's clean and friendly, this is your place.

Did not stay - had to cancel because no air conditioning needed for health reasons. Difficult to get phone answered. Rude on phone.
