Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Springer from Kirtland stayed in July 2012

The hotel was very nice, breakfast was awesome (as they normally are at Best Western hotels), pool was nice/warm enough. The room we had was a suite and was very spacious and comfortable. The only problem we had was the parking. The parking lot is way too small for a hotel of this size.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Susan from Normal stayed in July 2012

We loved the location of the hotel and the facilities. We had requested a room with a balcony but instead were given a room on the ground level. It did have a "patio" but people outside could see right into our room. The room also had a musty smell which made it difficult for me to sleep. The staff was friendly and the breakfast was fine.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Anne from Canton stayed in July 2012

We enjoyed the accomodations very much. Our only complaint was with the breakfast bar -- it was not physically arranged in a logical way, so there was a very long line for the buffet, when there really didn't need to be. Just a little rearranging of the order of the foor and moving the do-it-yourself waffle machine to one side would have made it much more efficient.

This hotel is clean, and kept up. It is a good hotel and I would recommend this to any family staying at Mackinaw. The beach front is GREAT!!! My kid loved playing on the sand bar and jumping into the waves. Clean and friendly. The rooms NEED a safe. Then it would be perfect.

The location was great. The front desk staff was friendly and the room was clean. The beach and breakfast were also nice. My only suggestion is to update the carpeting, beadspreads, and pillows in the rooms.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Bernard from Barrie stayed in July 2012

We enjoyed are two day stay at the hotel and in your very clean and safe City. I have, over the years, learned not to rate things excellent as there can always be room for improvement. This is the case with the Best Western. It would have been perfect if it had a bar/saloon attached to the building. Thank you requesting my/our input and we will return to the hotel and your City....
