Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Verified Hotel Customer stayed in September 2024Excellent two room, full bath, and additional sink room with balcony overlooking the beach and the Lake Huron water. We saw the sun rise over the water to start the day. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms spacious.

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Verified Hotel Customer stayed in September 2024The hotel was great. The staff was excellent and very helpful.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|I visited with a group of 6 and reserved the xl suite that had the 2 queen beds and 1 king with water front view from our balcony. The room was very clean, the only complaint was that the chain inside the toilet tank kept coming off which would not allow the toilet to flush. lol. I visit Mackinaw frequently and will definitely stay there again when we have a group. I really hope your hotel is open during the winter months.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Verified Hotel Customer stayed in September 2024For the price this.was a great hotel! (We purposely waited till after Labor Day to go so the prices were lower). We had a corner room on the top floor so our view of the lake, island and bridge was wonderful! It was very nice staying right on the beach:) We had some trouble with a couple items in the room, but those were taken care of within a reasonable time. No breakfast, but there are some amazing breakfast places in the city!! Delicious. As far as the hotel, I would go back! Try to get a top floor room!These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Laura from Dearborn Heights stayed in August 2024The staff is always super friendly and helpful. My room was very clean and the view was fantastic.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|It was very clean. The rooms are so well designed that you have separation between king and queen beds. Lake view is so worth it. The shuttle service to the ferry dock is so so convenient. The hotel staff was informative about visiting the island. I do plan on returning to same hotel next time for my trip and I would highly recommend to my friends as well.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|

Did you find this helpful?|Mackinaw Beach & Bay was a great place to stay. Needed lodging for a family of 5 and we were able to get a room with a king, queen, and a sofa bed. Only needed lodging to sleep as we spent most of our day visiting friends in Wilderness State Park. Room was clean, staff was friendly, and pricing was reasonable. Only minor issue was that one air vent was rusted and needed replacing. Overall, great value and would come back again.These comments are from a verified stay1 person found this helpful.

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Elaine from Mechanicsburg stayed in June 2024The suite was perfect for our girls trip to Mackinac Island. It was reasonably priced with a great location near the ferry. The BOGO breakfast was perfect for us. We felt very welcome by the gentlemen who worked in the evenings and the lady who worked in the morning. All gave us good advice about touring the area. Tickets to the island, carriage tour and Mackinaw City tour were purchased at the hotel.These comments are from a verified stay2 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Great value. A bit dated, but for the price to be on the beach, walking distance to restaurants, downtown MC, and the ferries, and a great view of the bridge. Quieter than expected.

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Scott from Shelby Township stayed in August 2024The afternoon front desk staff could be a bit more pleasant. They were helpful but did not go out of their way to be courteous. Also, people are feeding the seagulls from their rooms. It is very irritating to have them swarming by the balconies.These comments are from a verified stayDid you find this helpful?|
