When it comes to naming a classic Michigan hotel, The Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island is an obvious favorite. But the Great Lakes State is home to plenty of other wonderful places to stay, and the Ramsdell Inn is among the most unique. You’ll find it difficult to leave this charming hotel once you settle in — and it’s easy to see why.
The Ramsdell Inn is located at 399 River Street in Manistee.
