The Hidden Gem is Back Excited this wonderful, hidden gem is back up and running brilliantly. Years ago I hosted seminars here and it became a special place for family and friends. Check it out! Kudos to Trina-Sales Mgr, Ryan-Desk, Servers Carol & Dawson (bar too). The food is delicious. Try the salmon or the fish & chips with walleye. The views cannot be beat!

Amazing view and staff The room was great (a couple of minor issues, but excellent for a soft open) with an amazing view of Lake Michigan. The staff was quite friendly and knowledgeable. Each one went out of their way to acknowledge us. We only had the opportunity to have one meal at Nolan's, but the food ans service were both good.

Beautiful views and outstanding food I can not say enough about the view of the beach, just breathtaking! The rooms are spacious, clean and updated. I would highly recommend having a Nolan burger at the restaurant, exceptionally delicious and cooked perfectly!

Well worth the wait! My family has been wanting to stay at this hotel for 4 years. Covid hit, so we held off on traveling. We were devastated when we learned that the hotel closed , and over joyed when we heard it reopened! I cannot speak highly enough of the kindness of the staff at this hotel. The view is absolutely amazing, and the meal we had at nolans was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back, and be back monthly if possible! This hotel is a hidden treasure, and the amount of potentialthis property has is exciting. Extra special thank you to Michael , the bar tender at nolans for being so kind and going above and beyond to make our night special. Highly recommend this hotel!

A Great Anniversary Trip! We came to Illinois Beach Hotel to stay for our anniversary. We called a few weeks ahead of time to ask for some special requests, and despite the fact they were still getting ready to open, they went above and beyond to fulfill everything we asked after. The views from our room were spectacular, and you can’t beat the location right on the beach, in a beautiful state park - especially for the reasonable price point. Nolan’s was fabulous, and we were able to get a romantic table set aside for us overlooking the water. The manager was kind and accommodating, and shared with us all of the new, exciting things in store for the future of the hotel. Overall, it was an unforgettable weekend, and we will be back soon!
