Lori at the front desk was helpful with places to eat,we tried the 3 she suggested all were great. Are room looked rite on the beach, they lit a fire on the beach every night. We will definitely go back and stay here again.
The property is clean and well kept. The staff are friendly and very helpful. Being picked up by the shuttle for the ferry was awesome. Would definitely stay here again.
This property was very close to the ferry.
Beach was beautiful and the caretakers were wonderful. Rooms were very nice and very affordable. Would definitely stay here again.
Easy to get to location within walking distance of ferry dock. Front desk attendant was friendly, check in easy, simple accommodations but had everything we needed for a trip to the island. Beds were comfortable. Reasonably priced.
This hotel is extremely well kept. We enjoyed the nightly fire by the beach. The manager was helpful answering all our questions and making recommendations. The room was small but worked for just the two of us.
The manager of the property was amazing. They also have a ferry shuttle that will pick you up and take you to the dock and back to the hotel which was amazing!
Beachcomber was a great choice. Wonderful view from our room, access to the beach and great swimming. Bonfire in the evening was a great surprise. Laurie, the manager, was very helpful with suggestions on places to eat, activities on Mackinac Island and how to save money.
Access to the beach was nice and within walking distance. Beach chairs available. Fire ring and chairs surrounded. Room was clean. Close to the strip with places to eat and things to do.
Very friendly staff. Lori was amazing, very welcoming and offered help. The room was clean and adequate. The lake view was great. I will recommend and look to staying here again next time.
The view was wonderful, ans the caretakers of the Brachcomber are an amazing couple. They both gave great suggestions of activities to do and places to eat. Would highly recommend!
The host was very nice. Room was clean and everything is new and updated. Probably the best beach front out of all them,with nice swings,benches and fire pit.
Stay here!
One of the cutest motels I’ve ever stayed at! We had the lake view, the beach right off our balcony, and it was walkable to all the fun stuff in town! Would absolutely stay here again.
