Overall, this is a great spot to put down anchor for a day or two, or three! And right nearby, Manistee itself is a great little town to explore. For our last stay in September, we used the resort as a springboard for points north: Traverse City, and the Leelanau Peninsula with its beautiful vistas and many wineries. We have stayed at the Little River Casino Resort twice. For example, if you like to eat late (or early), The Willows restaurant offers steak and eggs from midnight to 4:00 am for $2.99! And there is a hotel package that includes a free breakfast for two. They can be a bit pricey-but not unreasonable-depending on what you order, but there are a lot of deals that will help bring down the cost. It is definitely tolerable for us overly-sensitive-to-smoke folks. There is some hint of smoke in the restaurant areas, but only a hint. The rooms would rate a AAA 3-star for sure. The rooms are in tip-top shape, clean and inviting. We had no trace of smoke in our room or the hotel corridors. There is smoking in the casino, but not in the remainder of the resort. During the week, you can get room rates as low as $59.00 just for joining the player's club. I am now disputing all the charges with my cc.Even if you are not casino people (which we are not), this is a great base for exploring northwest Michigan. The casino has not only over charged me, but they overcharged the converence leader as well. To date no one has returned my calls, not Autumn, not her supervisors. Waited and waited and waited, no credit has been made, I have called 6 times explained the situation and assured that someone would call me right back. I was told it would take about a week to correct.

I contacted the conference leader and she went personally to the resort, gave them her cc and was charged $805.09 for 6 nights. When I check my account a week later, I had still not been refunded. That seemed reasonable, she then proceeded to charge me for the one night and I went on my way. She assured me that she would make sure it was corrected. When the clerk tried to credit me back it would not allow her to do so. When I checked out Saturday morning, I gave my card to the front desk and got a bill back for the entire week. I opted to stay an additional night at my expense. I was at the casino in June for the rug hooking school, to which the rug school paid for my room Sunday - Thursday.
