The location is within walking distance to the main hub and ferries. Lovely view of Mackinac bridge across the street. Parking lot is very tight for SUVs. You also do not want to be on the first floor…you will hear everything in the room above you.

Small, quint, close to the Mackinac Bridge and water. Easy walk or short drive to shops. Hotel room was cute, no where to sit outside of room, if blind was open everyone could peer in as they walked by. We could hear everything in the evening, people walking by, doors closing, people talking, running by room, loud talking etc. overall okay but probably would not stay again.

Very nice pool/hot tub room. Comfortable beds. Quiet. Can walk to downtown Mackinac City and Sheplers ferry. We barely drove anywhere while staying here. Right across from Lake Huron. We all loved the beach being so close.

This motel is a great place to stay! Our room was ready and so beautiful. The cleanliness was amazing, and the room was very spacious. It was perfectly stocked with the items we needed for our stay. The view of the bridge is something to enjoy. Restaurants and shops are located nearby and within walking distance. We are planning to visit again and highly recommend it!!
