This is a great hotel to stay in on Mackinac. We stayed in the annex suite in the back with 6 people and it was perfect. Just a 5 minute walk to downtown and the ferry. Clean hotel and staff was nice. Would definitely stay here again.

I stayed at the Island House for a bachelorette weekend with the girls. The best part of our stay was the complimentary breakfast and the location! It was very close to the main strip. We got around on bikes that we brought (remember to buy a license for your bike if you bring your own, you can purchase them from... More

My husband and I spent 2011 Labor Day weekend at the Island House and has a great time. What a perfect ending to our summer vacation. We do a lot of traveling and I have to say that Mackinac Island is the most relaxing place if not the best place for a quick trip, we have ever been too. No... More

My husband and I booked a 4th floor room and were very pleasantly surprised to find that we were upgraded to a 3rd floor with a view. Everyone there was very friendly and there was just a "laid" back feeling. We bought a bottle of wine from the bar and sat out on the adirondacks in front of the Hotel... More

Island View is close to parks, waterfront, downtown and carriage... More

They have amazing views and you need a room with a view here, worth the price. You can rent bicycles right by the hotel and the biking is great for... More

LOVED our stay at the Island House. It was a perfect location and the 1852 is a great place for dinner! Must check out :)

With the reviews so positive and so negative, we did not know what to expect but we were delighted by everything. We too got the special through Travel Zoo but were treated as if we were a full paying customer. We brought our bikes over on the ferry (though there were good ones to rent even at the Island House).... More

My husband and I just stayed at The Island House on Mackinac Island. Our room was so small we referred to it as our walk in closet. We had booked a 2 night package on Travelzoo for 399.00 plus 80.00 in taxes and fees. The one dinner that came with the package was horrible. We were suppossed to be able... More
