This property is a case of great location, but subpar facility. It's interesting because it appears they updated the rooms not long ago, but failed to follow that up with the rest of the facility and staff. Each front counter staff I dealt with was indifferent at best, rude at worst. The vending machines wouldn't accept cards or cash, coins only. The breakfast options showing in the pictures no longer are available though there is a room called "breakfast room" with advertised hours. The hot tub was dirty, the pool needs serious maintenance. The only saving grace here is you are right on the coast of Lake Huron, you can see both the island and the bridge. We will not be returning.

Don't waste your money.
Nice view. We booked 4 days but left early due to noise. They were doing some type of construction. Room was also next to elevator..very noisy. Female front desk really didnt care that we left a day early. We lost the money we had already paid...just couldn't handle another day there.

The room was roomy for my husband and I. We enjoyed having a deck overlooking the lake. My husband enjoyed watching the sunrise each morning. The hotel is clean and staff was friendly. The hotel could stand to be updated, but it was fine. The only negative was that the bathroom smelled pretty musty (perhaps the shower curtain?).

Great value for the price.However they need to put some money into the place. The pool definitely needed attention. Badly needed to be painted. Hot tub chemicals were definitely off not balanced, I owned a pool service company and I know what it should have looked like. Very dirty. Smoke alarm in our room was open, showing no battery. Walls in the room showed where pitures used to hang by the headboard and needed painting. Door jam on balcony was peeling badly.

Beautiful sunrise
We were visiting Mackinac Island and staying in Mackinac City was a more affordable option. The hotel was nice, convenient to the ferry and walkable to the downtown area and restaurants. No food on site. Breakfast would be a nice option to get before the ferry. Our room was good sized and walked out to beach area and a beautiful sunrise. Room could have used some updates but was otherwise good.
