Called ahead to ensure the pool area was open and told everything was functioning. Both slider were closed and the pool area was filthy. Algae growing on the floor and cloudy water. Entire hotel has an off putting smell and floors are filthy. Staff is friendly but seem inconvenienced to be there.

Room 104 had a horribly squeaky bed, noticed after unpacking. Had a uv light with (for rock hunting) and the bathroom was just disgusting. Gaps in molding adds to the not updated in 25 years feel. The 2nd room was nicer, 116. Overall dated. Both tvs didn’t work but not a huge deal. Nice view!! Exterior patio door had locks removed and was using a metal pole for a lock. Right outside 126 is a weird cubby like area with a single chair, clearly where an ice maker was, broke, and couldn’t afford to replace. Entire facility felt damp. Staff was friendly but I can’t imagine this hotel surviving much longer. Super disappointed. I asked first night for money back and we didn’t want to stay, but they offered to switch rooms. I have heavy regrets as this was on a much needed burnout vacation.

Cleanliness was lacking!

Before we could settle in, we drove to the nearest Walmart for a vacuum and was glad I had clorox wipes and lysol spray. I can handle the outdated rooms but the cleanliness was lacking for sure! AC unit and surfaces were covered in dust (layers/years of it), fridge was dirty and sticky (inside and out), and stairways and light fixtures were covered in spiderwebs and bugs. The beds were not very comfortable but thankfully didn't have bedbugs so we tolerated for rest. Also, security was lacking - exit/emergency doors were never locked or had security cameras. During the little interactions we had with staff - they were friendly and professional. The room was very spacious but bathroom was very small with shorter ceiling.

The slides at the waterpark are closed, 5 tubes in the lazy river so it was hard for the kids to get a turn. The pool was drained but not roped off kind of scary with kids running

We've stayed in Mackinac city a few times and this was by far one of the best hotels. Clean beach and chairs, attentive staff and clean rooms.

Evening staff was polite and helpful. Morning staff was not. He treated us like an inconvenience. Room had a damp smell to it. Hallway and arcade area smelled like cigarette smoke. Water slides were not working and should have been closed off. No towels in the water park/pool area. No beach towels either.

Let’s start with the water park. Broken windows that are covered in cardboard. The two big water slides. Not turned on. The lazy river has 8 tubes. The pool area could be cleaner. The room. Old and smells old. The bed was comfortable and bedding was clean. It is on the beach. Which is nice. We left for the day and when we got back are room wasn’t touched. Around 7 pm. The maid comes to our room after she put everything ahe had her back pack on and was ready to leave. I said why wasn’t our room cleaned earlier. I was busy. She said I had a busy day. For wash we paid. This room should of been cleaned. When I talked to the front desk. Nothing was said. It’s as if I was talking to myself. So when we opened the patio door. There is a screen on the door to protect you from the bugs. The screen is taped with scotch tape. I’m like seriously. This hotel has a lot of people in it. Maybe reinvest some of the profits in the hotel. I would not recommend this hotel. They should be ashamed of themselves for how they leave there hotel. All I wanted was I paid for. You can hear everything through the floors and walls also.
Scotch tape on the screen.   Everything in the hotel is fixed this way.

The hotel has a lot of potential and I’m sure it was extremely nice when it was new. We had a waterfront view from our room, that was amazing with the beach and Lake Huron only steps away. The pool area needs some major maintenance. The lazy river was closed during my stay as well as the two big water slides. It looked like the slides had been closed off for quite some time. The kids pool play area was nice however 1 of the four slides there was blocked off for use. The two water guns were not operational as well as the big tiki head, from pictures it looks like water is supposed to spray out of that and that was not operational. From photos there use to be a jungle gym type thing across the pool and that was not there anymore. The carpet in the room could use a deep cleaning and furniture is pretty worn and outdated. We had fun during our stay but bummed that it wasn’t exactly what I was expecting with a lot of the pool area not operational.
