This place was a little older, but very clean and nicely decorated. Great location. Just across from the beach and within walking distance to the whole downtown. The walls were very thin,but the place was very quiet. Cleanliness is extremely important to me and this place was immaculate. More

We recently stayed in the suite at By the Bay. This was our first trip to Fish Creek and wanted something in the middle of town, and unfortunately we couldn't find much available. I loved the location of this motel (downtown and across from fish Creek beach) but we had to rent the suite at $205 a night and it... More

The rooms are very clean but there are no phones, hair dryers, shampoos, etc. Very old-fashioned in appearance. The air-conditioning struggled to work & our friends who had the room next door did not sleep all night. Their AC sounded like a 747 on take-off! It was awful. When they complained to the woman who owns this establishment she shrugged... More

This cute place is directly across from the beach in Fish Creek so if you have kids, it is especially ideal....think of it.... All you have to do is cross the street. No sand in the car!! The rooms are large. The owner is extremely nice!!!! Great find in Door County!!! More

We have stayed at By the Bay several times and always try to stay there on our visits, quite often it is already booked :( Always clean, always friendly, and a great location. Try and book your room early and request a room in the front for best morning view of the bay - Love it an miss it! More

Premises were very clean and neat, rooms smelled fresh and were decorated very nicely. We really enjoyed our stay at By the Bay, found it by wandering on one of our trips to the area. PERFECT location, right across from the beach, had a great view too! The owners John and Mary were very helpful as to the area. VERY... More

Not the most spectaular motel, but the location definitely makes up for it. Within walking distance to everything. Large rooms. Large balcony. Owners are very friendly. Furnishings are outdated and there is no coffee pot in the room, but I can live with that. More

When we couldn't get a last minute reservation at the Main Street Motel, our favorite Fish Creek motel, we booked at By The Bay as it looked similar and had similar rates. We agree that Mary was very helpful and friendly, and the location is ideal. Also appreciated the refrigerator in the room. But something in the room set off... More

Stayed at this motel for a week end in Fish Creek. It has a great location, near Peninsula Park, shopping, and a small public beach. You can park at the motel and walk almost anywhere. We stayed in a first floor room and there is a small area with tables and chairs where you can sit outside and enjoy the... More
