I love that the doors still had locks that open with an actual key. It felt more secure. The beachfront is beautiful. Crystal clear waters and hot enough to enjoy the lake. Super close to the ferry dock and in walking distance to the downtown area. We also walked to the Mackinaw bridge. It was a perfect experience to walk the bridge on Labor Day morning. I was also able to capture the sunrise, and the beautiful moon from our room. We were also happy with the indoor pool and the splash pad but I must warn you it was really cold water coming from the splash pad. Our kids went back to the pool. It was a shame that the hot tub was not in working order. The two water facilities is an awesome idea. Upon arriving, the front desk host was courteous. The first hotel room assigned was not ready. We were ok with that. We were told that it would be ready when we returned from our adventures in Mackinaw city/ island. We arrived after 3, when we arrived again in the evening, they gave us the key and we entered to find that it was not cleaned. It was actually pretty disgusting. (I’m sorry) The second one was cleaned but felt sketchy. I wish I lived nearer to help out. I suggest maybe updating the pillows, bedding and beds. Overall, it was a good stay for the price we payed. Thank you!

The location is wonderful!! The bathroom had a broken toilet seat that was just left there to look like it was not broken…. There was absolutely Horus coffee but….NO cups…..the office was closed and you had to go to a nearby hotel to check in, which was fine. It was waterfront and that was great, there was a balcony and we loved that. After the banquet we were in town for we came back and the entire ceiling was covered in small flying bugs. I get it we’re at the beach but I do wonder where/how they got in….. I’d stay again but I’d bring my own coffee for sure. Beds were clean and room was overall clean!

First of all when we arrived there was no one in the lobby to check us in, had to go next door to the quality inn to get our room. Room was ok but the next morning when we were ready to check out again no one in lobby plus no one in the lobby at the quality inn, note on door stating they opened at 7am and it was 715am and there was no one there, ended up going back to room and leaving the key there. Would not recommend staying there obviously they don't understand the meaning of customer service
