Great little older motel. Well maintained and very clean. Great location. Parking is quite tight ( a little tough for a big truck). Staff was wonderful. Plan on returning some day.

Great view and good value

Great views of the mighty Mackinac Bridge, Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse, Alexander Henry Park from the property. We stayed on the second floor, so the view from balcony in front of our door was stunning, especially at night. The property is older and smaller than the few national hotel chain options in the area, but also noticeably less expensive. Stayed here for the Mackinac Bridge Swim that starts across the street, and I would stay here again. Great location & view, and the price is hard to beat for Mackinaw City.

If you are looking for a place to stay in Mackinaw City for a reasonable price, this is a fantastic option. The rooms were clean, the staff was great. We reserved online and made a special request. They accommodated our request and communicated that they would be able to do so within an hour of making the reservation. The location is excellent also.

Decent stay

Beds and overall room was nice on the ground level. Location was great! Pool was good as well. Top of the shower and bath fixtures had mold/mildew around them. The shower head was full of mold, i had to clean it before showering. It really was bad.
Cheri, 2-night trip

Nice owner. Easy check in. Quiet.
