Top Mackinac Island Hotel Reviews

Breakers Resort & Beach Bar

10/10 Excellent

"Loved everything about my stay."

Pine Cottage Bed & Breakfast

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay! Location, staff, food and room were great! Only problem encountered was on departure. Staff tagged our luggage with tags for the wrong ferry company! Unfortunately, I didn’t look closely at the tags and when we went to retrieve luggage they were missing! Later we realized they went to the other ferry."

Murray Hotel

8/10 Good

"We stayed at the Murray Hotel for two nights over Labor Day weekend. The location is certainly convenient, and the staff we encountered at both check-in and check-out were very friendly and helpful. We also really appreciated the luggage service to and from the ferry dock—it made arriving and departing the island much easier. We really enjoyed having a street-view room, especially in the evenings when we could watch and listen as the island quieted down after the last ferry departed. It was equally enjoyable waking up to the sights and sounds of Mackinac Island slowly coming to life. Unfortunately, the room itself was disappointing for the price. It was very small and outdated, and there were some concerning maintenance issues. The smoke alarm was hanging from the ceiling by its wires, and the outlet in the main room was so loose it wouldn’t hold a plug—the cord simply fell out. There was also no refrigerator, which was disappointing for a two-night stay. It would have been nice to keep beverages cold and have somewhere to store leftovers. On the positive side, the shower was updated and the water pressure was excellent. We were disappointed with the limited hot tub hours, and unfortunately the designated adult time was not enforced during our stay. Overall, the staff, location, and luggage service were definite positives. However, given the condition of the room and limited amenities, we’ll likely explore other lodging options on our next annual visit to Mackinac Island."

Pontiac Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"When checking in a little confusing as you come off the ferry ramp and go up the street to the check in counter. After checking in you go back down the street and up half a block to the rooms upstairs. Rooms were clean. Very little silver ware. Nice view of docks, harbor and boat traffic. Close to many shops, bars restaurants and historic sites."
