Bayshore is beyond excellent. BUT if you want shiny new, soft gray and the latest stone countertops….pay more and enjoy at one of the newest “latest and greatest” lodging venues off the TC runway. Bayshore is solid five star in all areas. It is just comfortable. And, right on the Bay w/a beach. I love to watch the Michigan black squirrels bury nuts in the sand. Bayshore is nestled next to the brand new TC Senior Center and next to that the Maritime Academy. What’s not to like?

Great off-season rate. We really enjoy the location and the shuttle which will drop us off on Front Street and save the hassle and cost of parking.

Upon check in we knew it was going to be a great stay. The staff were very kind and even gave us a free upgrade! We got a beachside room with a jacuzzi. The amenities were great, we had somewhere to safely park our car and eat a great breakfast in the morning. This included mini omelettes, cereal, oatmeal, waffles, bagels sausage etc. It was great to grab a coffee and walk by the beach even in the cold. The room was very clean. The only downside was the shower was pretty small and the pillows were not the best but otherwise we had a great experience. The indoor pool and jacuzzi looked well kept and great for the winter months. Overall 10/10 experience.
