Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Paul from Alexandria stayed in August 2021The hotel staff was very accommodating in making sure we had the right accommodations, not to many or too few. (Family party of 10). The environment was covid sensitive but accommodating to our needs. The location was convenient to the Mackinac ferry. (The hotel couldn't help that the boat line had a ship out of service creating delay).These comments are from a verified stay6 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|It was a great place to stay. The staff was friendly and helpful, the rooms were nice and clean, and the view right on the water front was beautiful. The location was convenient to all downtown activities and to the ferries. Our family had a good time and we would gladly stay here again. The one let down was the quality of the free wifi provided by the hotel. The speed was very slow rendering the internet almost unreachable. Unfortunately, service from our cellphone service provider was pretty weak as well, and we would have really benefited from a good wifi connection.These comments are from a verified stay6 people found this helpful.

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Phoenix from Holland stayed in August 2020We love the 2 bed and a couch suite on the Lakefront, with a balcony! It is a great layout for a stay in Mackinaw and has everything we need. We thought the room cleanliness was good, as was the hot tub and pool area. I did not have a long wait to check in, but there were several times I noticed long lines for checking in and it seemed like there was only 1 staff member available. Seems like the front desk may have been short staffed during these times.These comments are from a verified stay11 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|
Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Maureen from Grand Blanc stayed in August 2020We stayed there many times but this time the room was updated and very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only issue is that the beach was dirty with discarded bottles from ignorant people and it was not cleaned in the morning.These comments are from a verified stay13 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|The ONLY complaint were the COVID restrictions, and the obvious lack of summer help due to the short season. Customer service everywhere in Mackinaw City and on the Island was amazing! We loved being within walking distance to downtown and the ferries. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, making reservations when they could for us, and we really enjoyed having the beach right outside our door!These comments are from a verified stay11 people found this helpful.
