I grew up skiing at Indianhead, and was surprised to see that there was summer lodging, had a very reasonable price. So we called and spoke to a very helpful person. She had actually left for the day, but returned just to confirm our reservation. We were surprised when we arrived to see that we were the only car in the parking lot. The room was clean and perfect for our needs. We even went to the sauna and hot tub as a bonus. We would definitely come back.
The Lodge was phenomenal during off season. We had storms hitting and needed a room for the night, the staff was friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was amazing. The room was nice and bed was super comfortable. Highly recommended!
Bug Infested! To start I have never written a review of a business before but I have to share because of how poorly a manager handled my overnight experience last night. When we checked in the room about 30 beetles and flies were mostly in the bathroom were present. My family didn’t want to stay there as it was 80 degrees in the room and at the time the AC wasn’t working and only 1 of 3 windows operated . They said it was the only room open and could not move us. The night time staff member who was nice got the AC running for me and vacuumed up about 10 beetles. Throughout the night I kept killing more insects and the temp didn’t decrease with the small AC unit. I had a poor nights rest and I complained to the Saturday opening manager who said it’s the U.P. and the insect problem can’t be solved. Also stated the AC units can keep the rooms at 60 degrees. That never happened overnight. I hope the owner/ownership group read this and train the management on customer service

Consider visiting during weekdays to potentially avoid crowds and higher prices compared to weekends
Pack earplugs or white noise machines if sensitive to noise due to thin walls in the lodge rooms
Bring your own toiletries including shower products for better comfort during your stay
Take advantage of the pool and hot tub after a day of skiing for relaxation
Reviews
Jackson Creek Summit at Snowriver Mountain Resort, formerly known as Indianhead, has received mixed reviews from visitors. While some appreciate the new high-speed lift and comfortable rooms, others express concerns about rising ticket prices, lack of evening skiing, and customer service issues. The lodge is praised for its convenient location near the ski hill and amenities like a pool and hot tub. However, there are complaints about room conditions such as drafty windows, noisy walls, and inconsistent housekeeping practices.

I have always said this is the best hill in the Upper Peninsula, but my one star review is due to the actions new ownership has taken against the community and region. Immediately, the new ownership and management blocked snowmobile trail access and refused to negotiate with the club (even through the club’s attempts to purchase land to re-establish this trail), closing a vital link of trail between the surrounding communities and greater region. In some weird twist of virtue signaling, they removed all nods to Native American culture and heritage, like ski run names and the name of the resort itself. Beyond that, lift ticket prices have become egregious, customer service has tanked, and the feel of the lodges has nearly lost its friendly warmth and charm. As a skier who has spent hundreds of days on this hill, I will now take my money elsewhere. Nice high speed chair though 🤡
This place used to be the best place around to ski and snowboard at. Nice new management had taken over they have cut off locals from so much access to something our community has always had access too. Affordable skiing, swimming, snowmobiling. The new owners are not members of our community only greedy money hogs and I hope people from out of town decide not to come due to their inability to support locals and their community. Horrible horrible management. It is so sad for our area that used to have so much fun at the hills and for it to be cut off of them in the name of money. Greedy people. Don’t come here unless you want to get ripped off
