The place is beautiful, newly renovated and very clean. The staff are very nice and welcoming. We had a wonderful stay ( 3 nights /4 days ) and we will be back .
Staff was super helpful. Breakfast was pretty standard for hotel fare. The cinnamon rolls were very good. Being able to call a shuttle to the ferry service is great! We also enjoyed the balcony each day.
Balcony overlooking the beach was a great place to chill after a busy day. Comfortable beds! Hot water:) the breakfast was good and even though they were full, we didn’t have a wait for a table to eat.
The view was fabulous. The hotel has a shuttle pick-up for the Shepler's Ferry and that saved us parking costs. The breakfast was between good and great but we still enjoyed having it available each morning.

Loved the location! Property is fine - just needs to be updated.
The breakfast guy was so responsive and respectful to the guests. His omelet was amazing. The hotel was good to stay. I'll go there the next time traveling to UP.
We enjoy our stay at the hotel. I love the view from our room. Very quiet, our room was very clean. The attendant at the breakfast was promptly refilling everything and making the area clean.
Some of the jets in the hot tub was not working though, but the pool area was clean and organized.
I would definitely book at this hotel again and recommend to others. Thank you !
Great place before going to Mackinac Island. Breakfast was awesome! A nice bonus is that you can use to fuel and hot tub 24 hours a day.
Staff were very nice and helpful!
Lovely and affordable! Great breakfast bar and ample spaces. Good swimming/jacuzzi, tub in the room, lake view and firewood pit lit up at night! I would spend more time to drive the bridge to make my night to here to save money from not staying in Mackinaw City. Stay here in St Ignace instead!

The hotel is dated and could use some renovations. It is located right on the shore and offers direct access to the beach. There is also a fire pit on the patio. These features helped compensate for the hotel’s somewhat worn condition.
The beds and pillows were great! Room was clean, but the carpeting felt dingy. We tried to swim in the Lake, but the inordinate amount of rocks kept us from doing anything more than wading at ankle level. We finally settled on going to the pool, which was fine, but we were a bit disappointed by not being able to enter the lake to swim. Breakfast was good - lots of options from which to choose.
