This property is a hidden gem and you can tell it's a labour of love for the amazing owners. We stayed for 3 nights while driving around Lake Michigan and although one of the longer stays of the trip it wasn't long enough.

The owners are wonderful, the couldn't be more helpful. We arrived early, they looked after our bags so we could drive in for the Cherry Festival in town, they even put our stupidly heavy bags in our upstairs room which they absolutely didn't need to do. Each and every interaction we had with them was great.

The room itself was great, very comfortable, very safe. They had an amenities closet should we have needed anything and we slept really well, The property is exceptionally well maintained, the rooms beautifully decorated, it's kind of like the best of a Route 66 motel combined with the vibe of a boutique hotel. It's not a new building so don't expect 2020's style, flawless finishes, but it has, as I said, been immaculately remodelled and taken care of. I have absolutely no doubts that if we'd encountered a problem, the owners would have taken care of it.

We loved the area so will surely be back sometime soon and this will be where we stay

The owners pay attention to the details! This renovated 1957 motel is a gem, filled with delightful retro touches and a comfy bed. Located close to town, we borrowed the bikes to get to Front St. shopping and enjoyed the neighborhood route. The owner recommended dinner at the Farm Club and Stella’s—both were exceptional!

It is a lovingly, but modernly restored roadside motel. From the moment you see it on the road, it invites you in. Cute pastel colored doors and fun black and white awnings welcome you.

Motel Sierra is pure joy! Every corner bursts with 1950s charm—bright blues, turquoise, and sunny yellow details, all brand new yet true to the era. You can feel the love for the 1950s culture in every detail. The rooms are small but impeccably clean, with bedding and mattresses exactly as you’d expect for this category. They’ve just added new bikes, and we were lucky enough to be the very first guests to try them! Riding the amazing yellow bike drew compliments from kids and adults alike. While the bikes are free, leaving $20 shows appreciation and helps support the community spirit that makes this place special.

Great for our quick trip to TC

Was a great place for our short stay with a pet. It’s obvious lots of hard work went into the updates and details of this motel. Super cute and fun retro decor. Extremely clean room and linens. Very comfortable bed (but wished I had brought a pillow, those only get 2-stars). Wonderfully quiet for relaxing and resting (thick walls and door, I am a light sleeper and I heard nothing outside).

The Sierra Motel is so charming! The property is entirely renovated but with a hip, mid-century modern vibe! The owner was engaging and warm and our stay couldn't have been any better! I highly recommend this poperty!

Super cute remodel! It fit our needs for our stay. Everything was clean and well thought out. The only thing I had an issue with is the mattress which was very firm and not comfortable at all. I think easier access to the ice machine would be helpful. Otherwise it's a great place to stay!

This property was so stinking cute! The pictures were exactly what we seen when we walked in. Even though the space was small, it wasn't cluttered and they utilized the area appropriately. We would definitely stay in the Sierra Motel again!
