The Foothills Cafe & Motel

"We came here after camping in glen arbor and the food was exactly what we wanted! Excellent breakfast food and service. The avocado toast was amazing. Very cute diner. We will have to come back at stay at the motel!"

"Very quaint, well-kept motel. We had a nice, quiet stay. We had no complaints and would recommend it to anybody traveling through the area!"

"This place is every bit a slice of Americana as you expect from a little roadside motel like this. But with very little effort could be a million times better. No AC but also no ceiling fans and the smell of smoke outside is a bit too much to leave the windows open. The rooms are huge and they at least have clean, white sheets on the beds. A little effort in the layout/upgrade department could make it a great value. Our TV didn’t turn on but til we realized it was well past most peoples bedtime. Not much of a drive to all the major things in town but out enough to be quiet and secluded. Clean enough but just clearly has not been updated in 20 years. We wanted to do the classic diner breakfast but honestly the prices were not classic diner breakfast prices."

"Shirley and Paul made sure I had everything I needed. It's a quaint old fashioned place that has everything you need and nothing you don't. The rooms were clean and conveniently located near the Sleeping Bear Dunes park, where I happily went kayaking and fishing. Would love to visit again. The diner was awesome, and highly recommend the omelettes!"

"Very nice place to stay, it is an older Motel but clean and very friendly owners. Beds were comfortable and rooms were clean. We just stayed there one nite 10/10/21 to 10/11/21. We had breakfast at the cafe on the property and that was very good. We went for the colors but we were a little early. Some colors but not peak. We had dinner at Art's in Glen Arbor, what a busy place for October, we ate outside the weather was perfect and so was the food. Good trip all the way around."
