Property manager was amazing and helpful. Room furniture could use some updating (headboard, kitchen equipment, tv stand and tv).
Tara, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a great holiday weekend at this property. Our cabin was cute and had everything we needed. We were able to have a nice bon fire on the beach and watch fireworks. Martin at the front desk was wonderful and helped us with transportation to the ferry and answered all of the questions we had. We appreciate you Martin! We will be back to stay again!

10/10 Excellent

The staff was absolutely amazing and even was able to upgrade us to a better room. We arrived early and were allowed to check in which was absolutely amazing. Unfortunately there is a ton of construction on the road to get to the hotel but that has nothing to do with the property and they were very accommodating despite it. Overall a great experience and an absolutely wonderful and unique place to stay in Mackinac city.

Cute little cottages located on the beach. There are 5 or 6 of the older ones and 4 of the newer builds that are on the beach. They have around 20 that are within 100 feet from the beach. They have an indoor heated pool. Located 10 minutes from the main shopping area. Located 10 minutes from the Ferry to Macinac Island. The staff were very nice and accommodating. We were offered an upgrade when we got there. We stayed in an older cabin. The air conditioner worked well. It had 2 beds with a pull out couch, kitchen table, refrigerator, microwave and a coffee maker. There was a tv and dresser.

Loved that the cabins were so close to the beach and the tourist areas.
Kimberley, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

I liked how cute the property was. Being in a cabin right on the water was wonderful. Beds were very uncomfortable and thin. Everything was clean so that was a bonus. The property manager was rude to us. We arrived prior to 4pm and asked if the cabin was ready and said if not, it was not a big deal, we would go explore and come back. He was rude and kept saying, "I cannot get anything done with these people bothering me all day". He did have a cabin ready for us and showed us where it was located. However, we were never provided the wifi password and we had to go back and ask, apparently there was a shuttle to the ferry we were not told about either. I saw people having a fire on the beach from the other cabins and I have no idea what that was about. Just some really poor communication on check in not making us feel welcome. The place was cute, but he made the excitement we had for the place disappear.
