The hotel is in a great location for boarding the ferry to Mackinac Island- you can walk to the ferry. It’s also very close to all the shops and restaurants in Macinaw City, again, you can walk there. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Room had plenty of space. That was the best part. Got to snuggle the bride while our many belligerent progeny quarreled on the other queen beds. It is really hard to find a place that will take 4 unruly children.

Liked the patio that faced the lake and access to the beach. Very clean. Walking distance to all the shops. Beachfront access was steps away.

Honestly no complaints. I’ve stayed at many different properties in Mackinaw City, and this hotel was by far the most pleasant. Very clean and beach is well kept.
