Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center
Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Gordon from Golden Valley stayed in October 2011

Breakfast was very good. Beds were very comfortable. Room was very clean. As a retired couple we didn't realize the noise that would be created by children enjoying the water park but everything was fine when we went to sleep and our area was very quiet. Staff was very friendly. We recommend the Bridge Vista and would stay there again.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Ian from Sault Ste. Marie stayed in September 2011

We had a great stay, rooms need a bit of attention but nothing that was of any great concern. Staff were friendly and we understand they are getting the hotel back up and running and that's not easy. We passed along pictures and notes to many friends stating we enjoyed our stay and will stay again, we are looking at coming back in February if not over Christmas time. Hotel uniforms would make the setting look more professional. Wishing you much success so we can enjoy future stays

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Kacey from Muskegon stayed in September 2011

Great rooms for a great price. The view from our balcony was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! My only complaints were that I never really saw the staff, the only encounter I ever had with them was at our check-in (Though they were pleasant and accommodating then).

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center
Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Janet from Hanover stayed in September 2011

Although the outside of the building looks new, the furniture in the rooms is scuffed up and they don't maintain the halls, etc. very well. EX: broken molding near the elevator, scuffed paper etc. The staff was very friendly and helpful and although we were too tired to use the waterpark, it looked nice and the chlorine smell wasn't too strong. The rooms were very clean but the beds were too hard to get a good night's sleep. We would stay there again though for the price, it was a good bargain.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Scott from Byron Center stayed in September 2011

Dear Mackinaw CVB, That is a great idea that you want traveler feedback from your member hotels. I have never seen a CVB do that before. We got a great rate at the Bridge Vista by booking an internet special through your website. The Bridge Vista itself was "Average," but the value was "Outstanding," so I met in the middle and gave them a "Good" rating through your rating system. I also posted a review of the Bridge Vista on TripAdvisor. I gave them a four circles out of five there. We enjoy Mackinaw, especially the Island. Our family would love to stay overnight on the Island sometime, but the rates are just way too high. Much better values in Mac City. Take care, Scott Z.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Teresa from Clio stayed in September 2011

We took our three children (ages 2, 5 and 7) to Mackinaw City and stayed at this hotel. The kids had a blast. The water park had different sections which kept them all entertained. The buffet breakfast is what I expected. I had two complaints: bed was too hard and AC was too loud. But, even with the two complaints we will return to this hotel next year.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center
Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center NIKKI from SAGINAW stayed in August 2011

The price was excellent ($69.00 a night for a beachfront room in a waterpark hotel in the summer), facilities clean, breakfast food plentiful and decent. We had a terrific time. The reasons I gave a "good" as opposed to excellent was that the staff does not seem very friendly (but then, we went to have fun as a family, not make friends with the staff!), and the rooms had empty spaces that would have been great to have a comfy chair for tv watching or reading. Also, we went looking for the little cocktail lounge that was advertised, only to learn that it hadn't been finished? We saw no signs of it anywhere. We would absolutely go back, as it was a perfect place to take kids; in fact, we have already talked about getting extended family to go next summer.

For the most part, it was a good stay. The only concern we had was the pace of cleaning service; it was slow, with our room not being completed one day until 5 p.m. Otherwise, the staff was very friendly and the room was good.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Lisa from Lima stayed in August 2011

The breakfast from 9:00 to 10:00 AM was a bit frustrating as the single staff person was working hard to keep up with the "rush". Guests always wait til the last hour to eat breakfast or sleep in. During that last hour, it would be good to have 2 people serving. I was impressed with how well the woman did to keep up with the demand but this is a management problem.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Kimberly from Hazelwood stayed in July 2011

We loved our room and the staff. However, if you are getting your information about the hotel and what it has to offer from the full page ad in the tourism magazine, be forewarned that much of what it says about the hotel is not on site at the actual hotel. For example, there is no restaurant on site and no outdoor pool or large indoor pool. It is a great value for the price, and our son loved having a room on the beach. Plus, this hotel defintely has the best "water park" for older kids. It was a great place to stay with a child and we truly enjoyed it.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Jon from Flushing stayed in August 2011

Our two kids loved the water park. It was a nice size and you could sit in the middle and still see your kids no matter where they were at. It was a little over crowded at times because they do allow guests from other hotels access to it. The room was clean, beds a little uncomfortable. Nice breakfast bar. Hardly enough parking though. We got back from town at 11 pm and got the last parking spot and we had to squeeze in between two other vehicles and all go out through the window. We appreciated that they allowed our small dog to be with us. They have a nice grassy area and beach area out back.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center john from Brunswick stayed in August 2011

This is a good hotel for a family stay. The accommodations are what you would expect from a 2 star hotel; not luxurious, but clean. What makes this a good place to stay is the staff. They were very welcoming, accommodating, and friendly. The water park is was a huge hit with my kids and the waterfront location is fantastic. I would probably not choose this hotel if I was traveling alone on business, but it is a great place for a family vacation. Mackinaw City is one of the great family destinations in the Summer and I would definitely recommend this hotel for a family vacation.

Bridge Vista Beach Hotel & Convention Center Cindy from Alpha stayed in July 2011

I had resereved our room online, and for some reason, when going to print out confirmation, the computer shut down, before I even wrote down the confirmation #. Later when I called the property direct to confirm, they had our reservation, but did not have the room type we requested. Instead, they upgraded us to a larger room, at no extra charge and also included a rollaway at no extra charge for our 2nd child. They also were helpful with anything that we asked for. Kudos to the hotel and the staff. Great people. Great Job!
