Guest Tips

The best way to look at it is to use the motel as your cheap home base for a casino weekend. The world-renowned Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort sits just a 7-minute drive from Wolds Motel. Sleep at the budget-friendly motel, and you could save a fortune over what you’d spend your time (and saved cash) enjoying on 24/7 gaming, concerts, and fine restaurants at the casino complex.

To make your stay more comfortable, here’s the smart tip to come prepared. With the motel being so very basic in its nature, your own high-quality pillow, your own extra towels can make quite a difference. Also, be sure to take full advantage of that in-room refrigerator and microwave. Stop by one of the big grocery stores in town- Meijer, Ric's Food Center- breakfast items, drinks, and snacks to get you through. It's a huge cost savings over fast food and much more variety.

The downtown center of Mt. Pleasant isn’t far so you can go check out all the quirky stores there and then grab a meal at some local joint. It is recommended trying one of Max & Emily’s gourmet sandwiches, with a hearty combination only found at a deli that’s been cherished by locals. for an entertaining night, catch a classic movie or live performance at the historic Broadway Theatre. All of those options give visitors a way better taste of what the community’s really about versus the fast food joints by the hotel.

In the meantime, for the tourist who wants to spend some time outdoors, there is the Deerfield Nature Park. It’s situated only a 15-minute drive from the inn. Covering an area of 600 acres, this facility contains miles of hiking trails that cut through areas along the Chippewa River, a disc golf course, and historic bridges. It’s very interesting and free to have a look at the beauty of central Michigan with so many commercial attractions in the city.
