Us and our 2 kids stayed here for one night. We loved being right on the water, and the firepits on the water were a quiet and relaxing spot to unwind. Would stay again.

Love Sunrise Beach Motel!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Sunrise. Loved our view from the balcony it was just beautiful to have the window open at night and morning. Room and bathroom were nice and clean. Staff was nice as well. I will consider Sunrise Beach Motel in the future and will highly recommended to family and friends if they ever visit Mackinac Island.

Check in was great and the views were, also. Our room was very disappointing. The screen door to the balcony was badly ripped and the handle on the slider was broken. The tub needed replaced and the bathroom window was broken and taped over. The beds felt clean and were very comfortable.

Liked the beach access right of our room and view to the bridge. Beautiful sunrise. The room was small, pretty clean, bathroom too. Mattress was very comfortable. Screen door and sliding door need to be replaced.

Beautiful view

View was amazing. We had a waterfront room and the view was beautiful. Our first room had a toilet that was not working and the staff was able to quickly move us to another room.

Cute remodled rooms with water view

The room we stayed in was recently remodled. Very cute. Beds were really nice. Considerably comfortable for a hotel bed. Sheets were crisp and clean. The manager check on us every time he saw us to see how everything was going. The girls at the desk were very friendly and helpful. Will definetly stay again.

I LOVED the ease of the shuttle to the docks. The staff was super friendly and nice. The little beach was so cute and perfect for a quiet little stay.. it was windy so we didn’t do a campfire but we listened to the waves all night. It was perfect .. Except for when our neighbors decided to feed the seagulls at 7am and it sounded like a seagull attack. Haha ! But still is a cute little spot. Needs some updating and plumbing was a little weird. But would definitely stay again.

This hotel was good for sleeping but don’t expect much else. They were draining the pool when we visited and upon check-in they didn’t inform us of this but we overheard another guest asking about waterpark passes and we then found out they were offering complimentary passes to a nearby hotel, but this was not offered to us, we had to ask. We ended up using the other hotel’s beach more than this one because it was cleaner. The balconies were very nice and the view was wonderful! Rooms were clean and beds were nice. If you call Shepler’s ferry their free shuttle will actually pick you up at the motel which was very nice. Also very convenient location to most things downtown mackinaw. If you’re just using the motel for sleeping and not much else then it’ll get the job done.

Unfortunately I was really disappointed by this stay. We booked online as it was labeled “pet friendly” only to show up and be charged a $35 dollar pet fee PER dog, totaling $70, almost as much as the room itself. The pool and hot tub were both empty, there was trash piling up outside in the trash cans, our balcony door handle was snapped off, sharp, and unable to lock, and they only provided small, clear, Dixie cups for coffee. The beds were very uncomfortable and made loud, rusty squeaking sounds when you moved at night. The lake view was gorgeous, but with all the hotel options in this area, I’d choose somewhere else next time.

Looked nothing like the photos. For the price it's an okay place to sleep for one night, but that's very subjective. As long as you expect no frills & questionable cleanliness. It looked and smelled like I was staying at a divorced deadbeat dad's apartment that hasn't seen a vacuum in 5 years. I think this should have been a $40 motel for what it actually looks like. I think they get away with higher because it's close to the Mackinac Island ferry. But if you're looking for the cheapest possible, I think the bed was clean so I was happy about that.

This is a great little motel that is in the middle of face-lift. Our room was so nice. It was newly remodled floor to ceiling knotty pine. Beds were very comfortable. Great views of the bridge and own private beach. Can't wait to stay again.
