Main Street Motel Front

Perfect Location, Beautiful Flowers & Very Clean
“We were welcomed upon check-in and felt more like family arriving than a hotel visitor. The grounds were beautiful and the flowers were absolutely gorgeous! The location was perfect, away from traffic and great for walking around to shops and dining. The rooms are individually decorated and the cleanest hotel room we’ve ever seen! We would highly recommend!”

Why stay anywhere else?
“This little family owned motel is the essence of the quaintness of the entire town. The room was meticulously clean and the decor was very tasteful. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous- the best in Door County. We can’t wait to come again. BTW- you won’t find better customer service either!”

Sweet location!!
“Saw this motel online with great reviews so booked a room for 4 nights. Our first visit to Door County. The location was amazing!! We loved walking just down the street to view the sunset each night at the park. We loved walking on Cottage Row street along the lake. The room overlooked Main Street. We enjoyed the patio to relax, have a glass of wine. Room had a coffee maker and refrigerator. Beds were comfortable. Easy walk to many restaurants and shops. Great location to go all over the peninsula! We will be back.”

Fish Creek-Fish Creek
Founders Square Fish Creek

Lovely location!
“We’ve stayed in Ephraim previously, and chose Fish Creek this time based on the previous reviews of this motel and in order to change things up a bit. What a great decision! The location is ideal, within walking distance to all the Fish Creek shopping and dining options (in fact, if you enjoy walking, you can easily walk, as we did, from the Main Street Motel to the Hilltop Shops and back, no problem!). Additionally, the property itself is extremely well-maintained. Our room was very clean, the grounds are immaculate, and the staff was very kind. We would absolutely stay here again!”

2 Nights in Fish Creek
“Great location! Next door to a Fish Boil and walking distance to all shops and restaurants. 1 Block to the shore to watch the sunset. MainStreet Motel is beautiful, well kept inside and out. Very, Very clean. The room was perfect, comfortable and quiet. We will stay here again.”

“Cleanest place I’ve ever stayed, and I have stayed there at least 10 times. Immaculate rooms, best location (within walking distance to numerous shops, restaurants, beach, grocery store, and more). Lovely landscaping, outdoor chairs, tables and lounge chairs. In the middle of town and yet surprisingly quiet. Prices SO reasonable. A clear winner.”

“My husband and i stayed her for a long weekend. We both loved this Motel! Squeaky clean, comfortable, and updated. Right in the center of restaurants, the lake, and the shops. The owners were amazing too. We will definitley be staying here again!”

Two Queen Room

“We stayed here for three nights and it could not have been better. Leave your car at the hotel and walk down Main Street to the restaurants and shops lining the several blocks. Then walk a block to the west and enjoy the sunset over the water in the evening. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with a nice area outside to relax.”
