Came here for dinner in July about 6:30 PM. Restaurant seats patrons until 8 PM. Our party of 5 was seated by 7 & the whitefish dinners were gone by that time. 3 of us ordered the perch sandwich, 1 ordered a caesar salad & 1 just dessert. The dessert (raspberry schaum torte came immediately! We waited over an hour... More

Second Story Restaurant is the kind of place I could imagine my late grandparents frequenting a long time ago (I'm 48). The menu is quite large but the offerings are very basic, not terribly imaginative. Many entrees come with "salad bar". The salad bar is very small and includes things like 3-bean salad, cottage cheese, canned fruit, and fluffy gelatin... More

We spent 2 nights at Ephraim Shores Motel in late August. We were very pleased with the motel and staff. And the location is great. We had a side balcony and the view of the Bay was perfect. The restaurant was also good. We would highly recommend it. More

We ate at the 2nd Story "restaurant" and the food was dry and tasteless. The seating was tight against one another, and the staff were not prompt nor helpful. It felt like we were imposing on them to have our order taken. I would not recommend this restaurant. I did not stay in the motel. More

The pool and hot tub were very nice and very clean, which we used daily after our days out. The room was large and very clean. The outside play area was great, our daughter used it a... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Ephraim Shores Motel & Restaurant in July 2011. We were previously staying in Sister Bay but wanted to stay another night in Door County. Because our hotel was booked, I found Ephraim Shores online (plus it looked really nice driving by a few times). I was very pleased with our stay. The front... More

The only thing I liked about my stay was the private chairs across the street by the water to watch the sunset. Also Jan was very nice and went out of her way to help when we registered earlier in the day. When we came back around 5pm I didn't like the service then. The lobby and the hallways smelled... More

Overall this hotel for me was all about the view. The room was fine..just nothing to write home about. I guess I would call it average for the price per night. Best part was the view and the balcony. More
