Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Elizabeth from Okemos stayed in July 2022I really liked this hotel it was clean and the location was good, on the water and great view of bridge. It’s close enough to walk downtown but would be a 10-15 min walk. I really wish there was a breakfast option at the hotel even if it was just a continental one.These comments are from a verified stay7 people found this helpful.

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Paul from Alexandria stayed in August 2021The hotel staff was very accommodating in making sure we had the right accommodations, not to many or too few. (Family party of 10). The environment was covid sensitive but accommodating to our needs. The location was convenient to the Mackinac ferry. (The hotel couldn't help that the boat line had a ship out of service creating delay).These comments are from a verified stay6 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|It was a great place to stay. The staff was friendly and helpful, the rooms were nice and clean, and the view right on the water front was beautiful. The location was convenient to all downtown activities and to the ferries. Our family had a good time and we would gladly stay here again. The one let down was the quality of the free wifi provided by the hotel. The speed was very slow rendering the internet almost unreachable. Unfortunately, service from our cellphone service provider was pretty weak as well, and we would have really benefited from a good wifi connection.These comments are from a verified stay6 people found this helpful.
