Discover Stompy Stan’s Secret: A Cozy Stay & Adventure Await at Sunshine Motel & Cabins!
Stompy Stan’s Hidden Paradise: Your Gateway to Upper Peninsula Magic
Deep in the heart of Michigan’s untamed Upper Peninsula, where Lake Superior’s waves whisper against sandy shores and the Porcupine Mountains stretch toward the sky, a legend walks among the pines. His name? Stompy Stan, the Sunshine Motel Sasquatch—a friendly giant who, along with his curious son, discovered the most welcoming retreat in Ontonagon: Sunshine Motel and Cabins.
One crisp spring morning, as sunlight dappled the forest floor, Stompy Stan led his little one on an adventure beyond their usual trails. The scent of pine and wildflowers guided them to a clearing where something extraordinary stood—a row of charming, rustic cabins, their porches bathed in golden light. Laughter filled the air as families roasted marshmallows by the fire pit, while others planned their day’s adventures over steaming cups of coffee.
"This… this feels like home," Stan rumbled softly.
From that day on, the gentle giant and his son became the motel’s most elusive guests—peeking through the trees as visitors explored nearby waterfalls, napping in hidden clearings as hikers passed by, and even (legend says) helping lost travelers find their way back to the Sunshine Motel’s warm embrace.
Now, you’re invited to step into Stan’s world—where adventure and relaxation meet under the towering pines.

Unexpected Encounters: Springtime with Stompy Stan, the Sunshine Sasquatch
What did I expect? It's the U.P.
What I didn't expect was encountering a hiking Bigfoot in Michigan's Upper Peninsula! The lush trails near Lake Superior and the Porcupine Mountains are a dream destination for hikers and nature lovers. But during a recent spring outing, my friends and I stumbled upon something truly extraordinary—a Bigfoot named Stompy Stan.
We set out from the Sunshine Motel and Cabins in Ontonagon, the ideal base for exploring the area. As we wandered through the blooming trails, we spotted a massive figure near the edge of the path. At first glance, it looked like another hiker dressed unusually for the mild weather.
As we drew closer, the truth was unmistakable. Standing at least nine feet tall and clad in his signature red-and-black flannel shirt was Stompy Stan, the Sunshine Sasquatch. Without hesitation, the creature waved cheerfully, then continued his hike, stepping lightly over the underbrush with incredible ease. The surreal image of Stompy Stan moving through the woods like a seasoned trekker left us speechless.
Back at the Sunshine Motel and Cabins, locals shared stories of similar sightings, cementing Stompy Stan’s legendary status in the region. Whether you believe or not, the Upper Peninsula offers unmatched adventure, stunning scenery, and maybe even a friendly encounter with a mythical creature.
Plan your stay at the Sunshine Motel and Cabins this spring, and experience the magic for yourself. Who knows? You might just meet our resident Sunshine Sasquatch, Stompy Stan!
