Great Stay
We've stayed in this location before, but before the old was demolished and this great new 'all suites' hotel was built. We stayed 2 nights and used the indoor pool both nights as well as enjoyed the complimentary breakfast buffet both mornings. The hotel is a relatively short walk to two of the boat lines to Mackinaw Island and one could walk to downtown from there, about 1/2 mile or so. Handicap accessable rooms are available, in fact we were given one by mistake but were moved to another room better suited to our needs without any problem. We will definately stay there again when we are in the area.

Short walk from hotel
The hotel has discount tickets for Star boat lines to the Island (why else are you in Mackinaw City) and is only about 1/4 mile walk.

Nice, Clean, Safe and Comfy
After spending a long weekend in Mackinaw City with my wife the year before - we brought our two kids with us for a family vacation. The Hotel room was flawless. The room gave us direct and almost private access to the Beach. Travel suggestion for those with kids -> bring water shoes/aqua socks, most beaches are rocky (all beaches on the island are). Tip #2 if you drive a bit to the West there are sandy beaches but you have to search for them. My kids were young and after a three day stay we ran out of things to do with them. Any more and we'd have been pressing our luck. Overall we had a great time, and the Hotel was part of that.

excellent accomadations!!
Being quite new, the hotel is CLEAN, CLEAN CLEAN!! The rooms are wonderful, the view is fantastic!! Very quiet. By far the best place we ever stayed in at Mackinaw or St. Ignace, for that matter. The staff was exceptionally nice, the cleaning lady even left us a note in case we wanted an extra blanket! I've got a bad back and the mattress was firm, no sagging in the middle. Pillows weren't pancakes. :)

The island of Mackinac is great! A lot of things to see and do. Biking, carriage rides, butterfly house, the fort, and many wonderful places to shop.

Ok for the price
Rooms for very clean and spacious. Great beach front location and staff was friendly. Continental breakfast wasn't very good, hardly any choices. Food served on styrofoam plates, styrofoamcups and plastic silverware. What a waste. Be eco conscious! The view of the bridge that was promised was slight. We could barely see it! Pool was way at the end of the complex.

Very nice family vacation spot
Excellent accomodations, great view from every room of the lake and the bridge. Staff was wonderful from the front desk to housekeeping. They even let us check in early and told us about some places to go and things to do. The only I would say needs some improvment would be the breakfast, it was cinnamon rolls, ceral, eggs, biscuts and gray and waffles. A little variety would have been nice and maybe some bagels and cream cheese, but other than that it is an awesome place to stay and we will return.
