Ephraim Shores Motel & Restaurant

Good value, clean rooms.  Right by the lake, great spot right in front to see the sunset.  Right next to Wilson's :) I was happy

Stay here at least twice per year.  Nice rooms with a view of the harbor - right across the road.   Private viewing area at the water's edge - to watch the sunset.  Nice, clean rooms.  Great Wifi.  Convenient parking.  An enjoyable stay -- as always.

The waterfront view is FANTASTIC!  You can also sit out on the patio (reserved for patrons of the motel only!) RIGHT by the water to hang out any time, but I do think that Ephraim is the BEST place to see the sunset!!

I have stayed here twice now, once with my mom and sister and once with my husband-- both with waterfront rooms (and the second time with the whirlpool room--comfortably seats two =))) and the beds are huge and comfortable--everything is clean--in my opinion, it really is the best location to stay in -- Ephraim is RIGHT in the middle of Door County and you're also close to Wilson's and Ephraim Town Hall where you can see American Folklore Theater in the fall ("Guys and Does" was HILARIOUS!!!)--

The ONLY qualms I have are that the coffee provided in the rooms is not very good and the Second Story Restaurant's omelettes were kind of watery and I'm not sure if they used real eggs and also, my sister accidentally left something in our room and called to ask if they could send it to her.  They agreed to, but sent it COD!  We thought that was tacky!

But, I will definitely return again--I cannot express how beautiful the waterfront view is--and how cute and clean and comfortable the rooms are!!!!  Also, they have many colorful, pretty pictures in the hallways and a gameroom with a pool table, a Gold Wings motorcycle pinball machine, a racing car video game machine and a couple of other games--plus a nice pool!!!  And the people at the front desk are very friendly and helpful in giving you directions and feedback about places to go in the area!!!
