I love this place - it's homey, they have a really nice breakfast buffet. You can stash your luggage if you arrive before the room is ready. It's right down the street from the ferry landings, right on main street. The people are really friendly.

We stayed for 2 nights in a queen deluxe room on our first visit to Mackinaw Island. Quaint, cozy with friendly staff. Excellent location, across from ferry and in the middle of downtown. Brought our own bikes which were safely kept right in front of hotel. Favorite experience was "Jack's Livery Drive your own Buggy" Went around the whole island... More

The pool area was quite, clean and refreshing after a long day of walking the island. Staff were helpful held our luggage for us on the day of... More

After several trips to this hotel, I feel like I need to share with the world, this wonderful hotel. It is the very bestof everything a hotel should be. Customer service, character, charm, and making the customer feel special. The hotel itself has old world chram, elegance, and that warm and homey feeling we all crave. You can be as... More

We stayed here in August 2011 and found it to be a cute, smallish hotel. Best features are the light breakfast served eveyr morning and the large hot tub on a patio in the central part of the hotel. Caution: rooms a VERY small and if you need a lot of space for your "stuff," make sure you upgrade to... More

Stayed in September 2011, thought the experience here was much better overall than the Grand Hotel - closer to things to do, a fraction of the price, and I felt like I got an incredible amount of value for the money paid for our stay... I think they could charge a lot more just by adding a few amenities, service... More

This is the second time we have gone up to the island, Mackinac, with our group of friends and we now always stay at this place. Since we have been in a larger group they give us a very good off season rate. Walk ins might even be better. We all got very nice historical rooms, ours was upgraded to... More

We stayed here on a Thursday evening in the off-season and the rate couldn't be beat for staying ON the island. The hotel is definitely old, but for the price you can't complain. The staff was exceptionally nice, the $3 breakfast buffet was an amazing deal, the giant hot tub was perfect to relax and unwind after several hours of... More

We happened to walk in for a room. We did not have a reservation. The front desk staff was courteous and actually let us view two rooms before signing up. This was a Sunday in September. The rate couldn't be beat, $59 plus tax. Our room over looked Main Street. We didn't spend much time in the room but did... More

We arrived on Sept. 11, our room was on the third floor and looked over Main st. we also had a great view of the water. The room was what we thought it would be, small but clean and even though it was Sept. we still used the air conditioner which cooled our room perfectly. We loved the cookies that... More
