The property was a little run down. The shower leaked hot water when on and would burn if not careful. The private beach was amazing and made everything worth it. Our room did not have a microwave, but upon rwquest we were brought on. Staff was very nice.

Liked the beach access right of our room and view to the bridge. Beautiful sunrise.
The room was small, pretty clean, bathroom too.
Mattress was very comfortable.
Screen door and sliding door need to be replaced.

We felt the location was decent, the rooms were just dirty with what looked like to be mold in the bathroom and stray hairs on the floor. The lock was also falling off the door so we didn’t feel safe with that. The pictures online were very deceiving. Service was good and check in went smooth. We ended checking out of that hotel the same night and switched to another hotel we felt safer in

Only one outlet worked in the entire room, and it wasn’t the one next to the TV. Woke up next to several deal bugs in the bed.

We booked through you(Expedia) and received two confirmation emails only to show up to the place and they told us that we did not have reservations. We are now staying at the quality Inn and paying more per night for a not so nice place WE ARE NOT HAPPY WITH YOU and will never use your service again

This was our first visit to Michigan! While we only stayed here one night it was nice. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the fire pits outside! My son enjoyed the pool and I enjoyed our view of the beautiful sunrise the next morning! It is right off the lake which was a gorgeous setting. Close to Mackinac, but just outside the hustle and bustle. Easy to get to and parking was ample. No elevator, so be prepared to take carry your items to the 2nd floor. The staff was great and very accommodating! Our room was one of the renovated ones on the 2nd floor and we loved it. They did a really great job on it. The mayflies were awful though if you left the porch light on next to your door ... so we just kept ours off (just slightly unscrewed the light bulb). Stayed here June 13-14.

The room was clean minus all the spiders and bugs in every single corner. As well as every lampshade, the air conditioning unit was in the bathroom which was odd. The plaster and drywall was falling apart in areas of the room, just had a weird old smell to it. Definitely thought I was getting a better room than what the reviews all said. Definitely needs some updating, just glad the bed was clean for a night stay.

Although our check in was excellent with Zachary, I STRONGLY warn you to NOT stay here. Dog poo everywhere outside, the room we had was questionable. Old; outdated ; nasty; had ants; tiny; smelled; half the outlets didn’t work. Nothing like the picture online. Only plus was coupons we received and cheap enough price (but price on their sign was cheaper than what we paid online).

Just a heads-up about the room pics, okay? There are two kinds, and the cheap one's kinda rough. The other one's alright, though.

The room itself was mediocre. Shower/tub dirty. Outside the door leading to the beach couldnt even walk out there without stepping in goose poop. When we asked the office for a rake that we planned on cleaning up the goose poop ourselves we were told there was no rake there and the janitor would get it in the morning...never showed up so we went and bought our own rake.

We arrived and checked in to be notified we’d gotten an upgrade which was very pleasant, but added an extra hour to be able to check into our room from it getting cleaned as we arrived. There were minor safety concerns around the property such as electrical equipment just hanging on the wall… pool area towels were absolutely covered in bugs, even for what was protected by just a towel for partial coverage. We loved that fire pits were an option right outside the room!
