10 out of 10Great hotel in a great location. The water views and great lawn were awesome. We enjoyed sitting on the lawn and taking in the scenery, sights and sounds. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. We enjoyed dining in at your hotel restaurant. It offered us outstanding service and a menu with a lot of variety and selections. The only area of improvement we saw was at check-in. Less than five people waiting to check in, and it took 20 - 25 minutes to get our room. Other than this delay, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would highly recommend it to our friends and family.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10I loved being right on the beach without having to portage my house to pay for it. I also loved the heated pool. The only problems were that the drain closure in the tub didn't stay open to allow the water to drain quickly and it would be nice if there were more accessible outlets for recharging electronics. But, those were minor problems. I loved it.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10We have been coming here for years and love the atmosphere. The cabins have been updated recently. Beds and pillows are very comfortable. Clean, beautiful view and bonfires on the beach every night. Shuttles available to town, just call the manager and he will arrange it for you! Manager is very helpful. My only suggestion, add a shelf in the bathroom for toiletries.These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Grounds are kept up nicely, the guy running the place was friendly and helpful. The pool and hot tub were clean and it had a private beach area. The room could have been a little nicer, but they are "cabins". The bed felt like a box spring and not a mattress but we surprisingly slept good!!These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10I absolutely adore The Beach House. By far one of my favorite places I’ve ever stayed at. We stayed in cottage 31, right next to the road, and never had an issue sleeping. We even napped in the middle of the day when traffic is the most loud, and was never woken up once. These beach houses get a 10/10 in my book! Love this place.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10We particularly enjoyed the location right on the beach, and we loved that there were grills, a fire pit and other amenities available. Also, while the hotel is currently short-staffed, we honestly didn't even notice. The employees were all very friendly and helpful, and we were impressed with the cleanliness of our room, as well as the rest of the property.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10I was very impressed and had a wonderful experience of this resort. The staff was amazing in every way. My family felt very welcome and was constantly checked in on. The rooms and cabins are kept very clean, and we’re exactly what we were hoping for. I have been to Mackinac city many times and have passed by this I never knew what a great place it was. I am so happy to have stayed there and will definitely do it again. Loved the fact that there was a community atmosphere and the ability to use the lake all of the activities and the pool.I made a great vacation for our family.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10We had such a great time at The Beach House. We got the duplex and it was a great fit for us and our kids. The beach is literally in the backyard, you get a heated pool, and free day passes to the indoor water park next door. Everything was very clean and well managed. The caretaker is so sweet and helpful with everything! Will definitely be staying again.These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10The Beach house cabins were quaint and cozy, And had everything that we needed for our stay. I loved that they were pet friendly so we were able to bring our dog with us on our visit to the island and around town. The only reason I am rating 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the lack of information on the website for the beach house. I had to dig into FAQs on Google to find check-in and check-out times and this wasn't confirmed until we showed up. I also own a very large dog and did not find out that there is a weight limit of 50lbs on dogs until I arrived, though we were still allowed to stay. Additionally, there needs to be a better system for reservations over the winter. Although I booked on February, I was on a wait-list for the cabin I booked without my knowledge until the town opened in May. There was a chance we had to stay at the hotel, which again would have been completely fine, but could be avoided by investing in a more advanced reservation system that would be able to identify this, as it could cause issues with others in the future. Finally, though this is very minor, the brochure and information online states that there are muffins served in the morning for breakfast, but we were advised this ended 2-3 years ago. Again, information just needs to be updated on brochures and websites. Other than this, everything about our stay was wonderful. We had everything we needed and would absolutely book again!These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10We had a great time but our original room was under construction so we had to move next door to the hotel. Our room didn’t have a microwave so we couldn’t enjoy our doggie bag snacks without getting dressed and walking all the way to the lobby. Otherwise, room was clean, ALL staff were courteous, knowledgeable, the room view, excellent.These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Love the location right on the water. Booked for next summer already. New paneling installed throughout the room. Only criticism is the size of the sink in the bathroom...is very small. Otherwise, looking forward to my next visit when its not 45 degrees outside and can enjoy the beach.These comments are from a verified stay
