Every room is cleaned with care and furnished to feel like home — not a hospital corridor. Soft linens, reliable hot water, and a view that makes you want to stay a little longer.
A cozy retreat with a plush queen bed, work desk, and all the essentials for a restful night on the road.
Plenty of room for the whole crew. Two double beds, extra storage, and a layout that keeps everyone comfortable.
Your four-legged friend is welcome here. Spacious room with easy outdoor access and a warm welcome waiting.
Rapid River Motel isn't a chain with a logo and a policy manual. We're a family-run motel right off US-131, and we treat every guest like they're coming home.
Fresh linens, hot showers, and beds that actually let you sleep. We take pride in the details that matter.
Right off the highway with easy pull-in parking. Close to Frankfort, Leland, and all the trails and lakes of Grand Traverse County.
You'll be greeted by name, not a headset. We know our regulars and we remember the new faces too.
Quality lodging shouldn't cost a fortune. We keep our rates honest so you can spend your money on the fun stuff.
Situated on US-131 in the heart of Mancelona, we're an easy drive from Traverse City, Frankfort, and the scenic Beauty Belt. Pull in without the stress of back roads.
