The Beach HouseThe Beach House Charlene from Bloomfield Hills stayed in August 2022The Beach House is our favorite place to stay in Mackinaw City! Martin takes care of anything we need, and we love the flowers, bonfires, and free shuttle service to the ferry. It's a perfect, affordable getaway!These comments are from a verified stay4 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|We’ve been staying at The Beach House for over 30 years, sometimes staying twice in one season. The cabins have been nicely updated over the last few years and the beach is probably the most well kept up along that whole stretch. Martin does a great job of keeping everything up, he’s accessible, knowledgeable about the area/history, and friendly. Already looking forward to our trip back next summer!These comments are from a verified stay4 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|It was a great place to stay. Loved the cabin on the beach. The office guy was great to work with and very helpfulThese comments are from a verified stay6 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Loved that the cabin was updated and had new lines and new mattress. A few items could be updated to match the other renovations, such as the bathroom door and lock, the toilet paper holder, the curtain on the entry door. There is a mauve/pink chair in unit 26 that should be removed as it is broken and a person could tip over sitting in that! The manager was very nice and accomodating.These comments are from a verified stay5 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Close to the beach and to the city!

Did you find this helpful?|We loved our stay. We stayed in one of the newer cottages (#41). It was lovely. Beautiful view of the island and bridge. The area is quiet and my husband, myself and my 2 kids loved the beach area and then firepit. We look forward to when we can stay again.These comments are from a verified stay3 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|My wife and I had a great stay at the beach house. The attendant at the beach house was wonderful. The only thing I would say is there needs to be a shelf in the shower to hold shampoo and soap. Also painting the floor of the shower would have been nice, it just looked like dirty concrete. Overall it was a great stay and I would stay there again.These comments are from a verified stay8 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Immediate access to beach. At check-in, proprietor made sure I knew about that night’s activities and had ferry tickets I needed. I had an older cabin but it was well-maintained.These comments are from a verified stay2 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Room was clean, access to lots of amenities (beach, pools fire pit, etc.). The manager was extraordinarily kind and went above expectations in making sure we had everything we needed, recommending things to do, etc.These comments are from a verified stay4 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Martin was the owner of the beach house and he was phenomenal. He had our rooms clean and ready to go. Was very laid back about check in and checkout. The hotel was right on the water and we couldn’t find a single thing wrong. We loved it.These comments are from a verified stay3 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|The cabin was nicely furnished, clean. Th only complaint is there is/are no accommodations for people with disabilities. i.e. ramps for people with w/chairs, people walking with a cane and have trouble with stairs.These comments are from a verified stay4 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|This place could use some upgrades. It didn't strike as modern or up to date. The beds were comfortable. There was plenty of hot water. The pool and hot tub were wonderful. There we're only a few of us in there whenever we used it. That was awesome. The beach was so close and lovely. It was clean and well cared for. There were plenty of grills available for use. The very best part of our stay however, was the gentleman who ran it. Martin was accommodating above and beyond expectations. He was approachable, kind and wanted our stay to be everything we desired it to be. I cannot state this enough. That man deserves a raise. We would definitely return knowing that Martin is there to meet any unexpected needs on our trip. It was like having an accommodating uncle there, making sure you had all that you needed. He gave us a small town welcome which is very rare and very appreciated. I would recommend this place because of the accommodating service of it's caretaker alone.These comments are from a verified stay4 people found this helpful.
