Peerless view, great location, quiet, spacious cabin, lovely setting. We stayed 2 nights for price of one in February just to get away into the country. We could have stayed in the cabin the whole time. It is very near Pere Marquette State Park. Large living room with dining, large bedroom and bathroom. Couch was also foldout. Cabin was neat... More

My wife and I just stayed at Tara Pt. Inn & Cottages last week on a Thursday nite. What a great place to take your spouse for a romantic, relaxing stay. Next time we will definitely stay longer! We stayed in the Red Bud #2 cottage which is the middle building of the 3 cottage buildings. The setting is incredible!!... More

Just spent a quick one night stay at Tara Point in a cottage for an anniversary getaway. It was delightful to say the least. The cottage was very nicely decorated, loved the porch overlooking the fantastic view, very spacious bedroom and bathroom (also everything was clean up to my standards, which are quite high). The surroundings are amazingly peaceful -... More

Tara Point is very peaceful. The view was incredible!!! Here is the good: Big comfy bed, nice bathroom with whirlpool tub, very close to all Grafton's fun. Some of the not-so-good: The breakfast was a bit of a dissappointment, our housecleaner didn't leave a liner for the bathroom, the staff didn't seem overly friendly, there could be some improvement on...

My husband and I have stayed here many times over the past twenty years. Though we have always enjoyed our stays here, it saddens us that the original owner's children have not put the same attention, love, care, money and passion that their parents did in to Tara Point. It appears to just be a money making opportunity to them... More
