    It was just a commendable fit for strolling in Mackinac Island with excellent value for money. The hot chocolate at breakfast was the best I've had in years. Make sure to inform the front desk about housekeeping services at check-in to avoid issues.

    comfortable atmosphere
    small room

    The location strikes a good balance between being close to downtown and shielded by the park, providing a nice blend of attractions and tranquility. The ice house and pool area offer a peaceful retreat, perfectly suited for unwinding after a day’s adventures....

    We had a wonderful time biking around the island and soaking in the breathtaking views, especially at Arch Rock. The on-site bike rental was super convenient, making it easy for the whole family to explore together....

    delicious meals
    room updates needed

    Relaxing stay with a view

    We spent 2 nights in a Traditional King Room with an amazing view of Main Street. The grill was delish, and our meals were on point! The adult-only hot tub was a nice touch. Only thing was the room needed some updating here and there.

    scenic porch
    outdated decor

    charming historic atmosphere with a few hiccups

    The staff were genuinely friendly and eager to help. The location is excellent, right by the ferry and Fort Mackinac, making it easy to explore.

    The room had some outdated decor that felt a bit worn.

    fantastic location
    helpful staff
    inconsistent luggage
    overpriced dining

    The Island House offers a fantastic location close to downtown with lovely views. However, my experience was slightly marred by inconsistent luggage service and some overpriced dining options. The hotel’s charm and helpful staff made the trip enjoyable overall.

    friendly staff
    late check-in
    unprofessional remark
    dining inconvenience

    The historic building features a lovely pool area and a cozy grill room serving delightful local products. Our room was bright, clean, and offered stunning views of the water, enhancing our relaxing stay. A minor inconvenience arose when our room was not ready until almost 5 PM, which was understandable given potential staffing issues. The experience was slightly hindered by an unprofessional remark overheard during a dining experience, but overall, the friendly staff and beautiful surroundings made for an enjoyable visit.
