Good for a 3 star hotel. Beach area was fair. Grass/rocks between sand and water so you need shoes to walk to the water. Room was good. Good location. Good service.These comments are from a verified stay74 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|
Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Leandre from Blue Island stayed in August 2013The service was outstanding; the room was spacious and clean. The only gripe was the water front, which had more grass than sand. But I will definitely stay again.These comments are from a verified stay75 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Mark from Grand Rapids stayed in August 2013We were very pleased with the room and atmosphere in the hotel. Having just changed ownership, it is still improving and changing, which creates a little confusion at times. The staff was gracious and efficient. The breakfast, and the attendant, despite the large number of people, were particularly outstanding.These comments are from a verified stay71 people found this helpful.

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Dennis from Pasadena stayed in August 2013We arrived earlier than check-in time, but John at the desk allowed us to come in early so our items didn't have to stay in the car while we toured around. AND he gave us lots of helpful tips on the area. The room was great, gorgeous balcony view of Mother Nature's Lake, and the price was excellent, too.These comments are from a verified stay126 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|
Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Douglas from Republic stayed in August 2013The room was more than expected. When stopped to see about early check in our room was not available, which we understood. We told desk clerk that we would be returning late from a fishing charter. When we came back to check in, everything was ready for us, I only had to sign the paperwork and all was taken care of for us. Breakfast was excellent with many choices and fresh hot food.These comments are from a verified stay73 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Krishnan from Buffalo Grove stayed in July 2013Mackinaw beach and bay stay was excellent. the staff was friendly and helpful. rooms were large and clean (we stayed in 2 Q with sofa suite). only small issue was room cleaning wasn't done till 400pm and we had to remind couple of days. Breakfast buffet is decent, usual free stuff. Don't be expecting any fancy beach around here. Rooms were facing the lake and clean. Generally very happy with the stay and Mackinaw city is great.

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Sharon from New Castle stayed in July 2013Very nice hotel. Stayed in the extra large king suite, which sleeps 8. A second bathroom would be nice and also a door to the bedroom. The beach area needs more sand. The employees and manager were great.These comments are from a verified stay66 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|The woman behind the counter at the hotel (I wish I would've gotten her name) remembered us from last year and helped the kids feel at home. She was blonde and worked the night shift. Also the hotel is very nice and the rooms are perfect for our family of 5. I couldn't imagine staying anywhere else.These comments are from a verified stay88 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Clean, well-kept rooms. A+ on the housekeeping!! I received the exact type and location of room I asked for, even though my reservation was made only a week or so before our stay, AND it was a holiday weekend. That was impressive and helped make it an outstanding family vacation weekend. This place is perfect for families with older kids since the rooms are divided into 2 separate rooms by the bathroom/kitchenette area. Gives both parents and kids a bit of privacy. Good hot breakfast. Great location! Only complaint would be the inability to get extra towels in the evening for the next morning. With the price paid for the room, that shouldn't have been a problem. Overall, a great weekend!These comments are from a verified stay72 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|

Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Barbara from Ostrander stayed in June 2013Room was reasonably priced, very clean and updated. Hotel clerk was helpful, but could have been a bit more friendly. Breakfast was good , but nothing special. Overall I enjoyed my visit and would stay at this hotel again.These comments are from a verified stay81 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Room and amenities were great; staff very friendly and helpful. As luck would have it, we were there along with a bus load of students so the breakfast buffet was overwhelmed, and into the night, is sounded like someone was practicing gymnastics in the room above us. We realized this was an anomaly as this was a very nice property overall. Plus, they informed us about the ferry service pickup and drop off and made the call to the service; very convenient. We would stay here again.These comments are from a verified stay74 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|
Mackinaw Beach & BayMackinaw Beach & Bay Robert from Lawrenceburg stayed in May 2013Front desk was very friendly.The rooms very clean.Even though the hotel was not full because of the time we were there,they did have a group of children there and a few other people.Our room was going to be close to other filled rooms and the night manager separated everyone so it would be quiet.Our room was on the third floor and had the most beautiful view of the lake,the boats and the bridge.When we come back we will stay at the Beach and Bay. Thanks for a great experience!These comments are from a verified stay106 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Traveler Reviews (651-692 of 692)
