"Great stay!"

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw City

10/10 Excellent

"The room was nice and clean. The shower was powerful. The breakfast was awesome. Would highly recommend."

Mackinaw Beach & Bay Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"We’ve stayed at Mackinaw Beach and Bay for probably 10 years as we travel to Mackinaw the first weekend of October. The room this year was clean, and had a few upgrades like a huge flat screen TV mounted on the wall in both sleeping areas. The beds are hard as a rock and the pillows are small… thank God they give you a lot of pillows on the bed! The one disappointment was that they seem to have done away with their continental breakfast. The rates go up but the amenities slowly fade. All and all it was a positive experience."

Harbour View Inn

8/10 Good

"The rooms are cozy and comfortable. The view of the courtyard is beautiful with all the different flowers in bloom. The continental breakfast is a great bonus with fresh baked goods offered. The staff are welcoming and very helpful. The walls of our room felt a little on the thin side because we could hear the couple next door talking on and off throughout the night. All in all, it was a good stay."
