This is a really nice property extremely reasonable and with lovely views of the lake. The room was really nice, but some of the hallways are a little tired.
We really liked being on the beach of Lake Huron. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They helped us figure out some fun things to do on Mackinac Island and how to get there using the shuttle bus.
Easy check in. Though dated, the facilities are clean and adequate. Bed was a little hard. Walking distance to a great Mexican restaurant.
Beautiful view of Lake Huron and Mackinac Island.
Staff were very nice and helpful. Room was clean and location/view was great. The beds and pillows were not very comfortable but our worst experience was with the room above ours. Sounded like they were coming through the ceiling when they walked across the floor which they seemed to do constantly every night and again at 2 am. We would stay again for the location and view but maybe ask for 3rd floor!
