We needed a place to stay last minute and this was one of the only locations with an opening. This night stay ended up being amazing- our suite was right on the water, the beds were comfortable and the room had everything we needed. The firepits and s’mores were so fun. I definitely recommend this place for Families.

Nice property but room, pool, and breakfast were all in separate buildings. The non-swimming beach area is nice for a campfire which they permitted with a great view of the Mackinac Bridge.

Property needs minor maintenance such as faucet leaks and more attention to a thorough cleaning especially around windows. Firepits and smores were a nice touch in the evening.
