Ephraim Shores Resort

This resort is the perfect location to be as this is basically the center of Door County of you're on the area to explore the northern section of Door County. We ended up getting last minute deal for a room (Deluxe Suite) which consisted of a hot tub we didn't use. The bathroom and shower was nice and roomy. We had rather see that there was a small table and chairs for 2 instead. The balcony was nice, but you'd be sitting in front of the air conditioner which would have hot air blowing on you. The WiFi was spotty at best. Even cell towers were spotty in that area of the hotel which was far back (north east) of the hotel, so one would not have much service to do business on mobile devices.

We have stayed in many many hotels around the US and I have to rate Ephraim Shores Resort, as one of the nicest hotels I have stayed in. Very clean, pool and hot top amazing. Service top notch. If you are thinking about heading to Door County, I recommend this resort. You will not be disappointed. I just wished I could stay longer.

Ephraim Shores Resort is a wonderful resort. Great location to everything in Door County. The staff is very friendly and the rooms are very clean. Beautiful sunsets across the street on bay of Green Bay. We have stayed here every time.

The hotel is kept up very well and clean. Everything worked. Our room had a view of the water and the sunset. Had a nice lanai outside the patio door. We had a kitchen room with refrigerator, cook top, microwave and table. The front desk people were very friendly and helpful. The pool was kept warm and clean. Likewise the hot tub was perfect. Ice and arcade games were just outside of the indoor pool. You can walk to a number of local restaurants and there's a really nice restaurant up on the 2nd floor above the lobby with great views of the bay.

Consistently and very family friendly. I've stayed multiple times, as did my parents, daughter, and granddaughter. This trip my great-grand was along making five generations to stay at Ephraim Shores.

Positive: The room was large and quiet despite being next to the highway. They had a small restaurant above the lobby, with great views of the lake offering delicious meals and great service at a very good price. Negative: We would have preferred softer pillows.

We enjoy staying at Ephraim Shores. It was our 2nd time there. Rooms are a nice size and clean. Service is great! Very nice indoor pool and whirlpool, and they have their own beach area across the street. Also they have a very nice restaurant on the 2nd floor. Great location!

This is a message plus an apologies to the owners and managers of Ephraim Shores resort. I made a huge mistake in this review. We had originally set up to stay at this wonderful place, Ephraim Shores Resort, but for unknown reason Booking.com booked us at the Eagle Harbor Inn. The review was actually for Eagle Harbor in which we had unfortunately had to stay in. We were very disappointed with the size of the room. Kind of tiny! Maybe 10x10 or less, extremely cramped space. No amenities at all. No coffee maker, no mini fridge. Please do not stay there. In case you are in Ephraim, please make sure to stay at the Ephraim Shore Resort, it's highly recommended and make sure to have lunch or dinner at their restaurant above the Hotel, great foo, excellent price and an impeccable service. Again sorry for the confusion, I'm getting old and mess up every now and then.

We just finished our third stay at Ephraim Shores Resort. What can I say, they have it all, great service, beautiful location, convenient, sparkling clean room, good food, lake view, and friendly people. We have already booked our stay for next year, and are very much looking forward to it. Thank you E.S.R. John and Joanne Ferraro

Another visit, another fine time. Clean, comfortable king room, indoor pool, lovely view of the Green Bay. You have to try the restaurant great food, fantastic service, nice owner

Great spot to stay right on the water in Ephraim. The rooms are always clean, spacious and the beds are comfortable. The staff are very friendly. The best part is the water view and the dock that guests have access to. Bring a couple of drinks and walk down to the water to see a sunset you won't regret. We've done take out on purpose to eat down by the water.

Great location on the shore of the harbor. Clean, quaint, friendly staff. We're already planning our next trip.

What a wonderful time. 1st time here was in middle of August; thought that was the best time but I have to say now is better than then. Came for fall festival and my birthday in late October. Best time ever to come, you can experience the trees as they turn to a magnificent array of color. The staff could not have been more friendly. Buffy and Lana were the friendliest I have ever encountered; ready to help anyway they can. Highly recommend, you must come.

Enjoyed our stay! Beautiful location right across the road from Lake Michigan. Will definitely be back.

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!!!

We are back for our 6 th year in a row. love the staff and clean rooms. nice view always good parking. The 5 Milers

Delightful stay. Clean, comfortable room with beautiful view. Kind staff at the desk. We will be back!

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

Perfectly clean. We had a queen size suite with a view. Nice and quiet. The rooms are well supplied. Nice sitting area on the water for guests. We had a first floor room that walks right out. Very nice. The rooms looked exactly like the web site so you know what you are getting. The staff was friendly and helpful. Cable TV and free Wifi. No DVD player. We didn't try the restaurant.

What a gem!!! We rented a 1 bedroom apartment with a full kitchen and found it to be spotless and fully furnished. Maid service was outstanding. Bathroom was fully updated. Our unit was second story with a private balcony that faced the water and the sunsets were breathtaking. The room rate was very reasonable as I reviewed several locations in the same area that offered less space for a significantly higher rate. Several excellent restaurants and activities within walking distance.

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.

This place must have 4 1/2 stars for its accommodations, but definitely not for the food. It is a small restaurant above the lobby. The decor is aged and the table cloths are vinyl. The food is lax diner quality.
