The pool was detached from the hotel and it wasn’t very warm and the breakfast room was good but the room was cold as ice. It was ok but definitely nothing special.

Our room was very clean and comfortable! Our lake view room was amazing, the balcony was great for coffee and relaxing! Was within walking distance to Arnold Ferry for second part of our trip to Mackinac Island for a couple days. Was very easy walk to eat at The Rusted Spoke and Dixie Saloon and to see Icebreaker Mackinaw Museum. Would stay again!!!

Happy with our stay.

Stayed 2 nights in king suite with hot tub. Room was clean. Hot tub was clean including jets. Front desk was friendly. Over all stay was good for the price. We didn't swim in pool (water was too cold) or go in spa area. Beach area was alright nice and sandy. Was a close walk to the ferry.
