Lovely and affordable! Great breakfast bar and ample spaces. Good swimming/jacuzzi, tub in the room, lake view and firewood pit lit up at night! I would spend more time to drive the bridge to make my night to here to save money from not staying in Mackinaw City. Stay here in St Ignace instead!

The hotel is dated and could use some renovations. It is located right on the shore and offers direct access to the beach. There is also a fire pit on the patio. These features helped compensate for the hotelโ€™s somewhat worn condition.
