The beds were comfortable. The pullout sofa was terrible. Bathroom smelled terrible and there was mold in the shower. No outlets for charging devices easily. Breakfast was sub-par: runny scrambled eggs, rubbery pancakes, and boiled ham - think hotdog water. Service was good and friendly.

Passing thru and was tired got a room with a hot tub that was dirty. Once we went in the room had no light had to use our cell flash light at this point we found the lights over the bed. The breakfast was no better but it was a room. Not sure if we would give them another change since we reported the issues and it seems it went unheard.

We liked the convenience of being right by everything and the beach being right behind the property. Our room was very outdated and had a bit of a musty smell but the price was right. Breakfast was from 7am-9am. Pool was opened from 10am-11pm. Breakfast room and the pool were clean and well kept. Some vacant rooms had the drapes open and they looked updated.

Good clean hotel. We had a balcony room overlooking the lake. Could see the big Mac. Breakfast was good. Room and bed were comfortable. Air conditioner was noisy. A joy to here the waves crash all night. Great rate for Mackinaw. Will look forward to staying again.

Disliked: Amenities
When I first opened the door to the room, the house keepers didn't clean the room because there were dirty towels on the floor and the beds were not made. So I went down to the office to let them know, I wasn't able to get a beachfront view that I paid for and they didn't have another beachfront available, I got a side view of a swamp. The room ceiling needs fixed it doesn't look good.
