Extremely small rooms, not even enough room in the bathroom for a sink. No way should put 4 people in the room size we had. Staff was very good. Price was ridiculously high for what they offered. Difficult to navigate in the hotel as it is not well marked. Nice location.

The property is so comfortably remodeled, and is kept immaculately clean. Everyone of the staff members is extremely friendly, professional and always has a smile on their face. The restaurant 1852 is beyond the best on the island. Everything we had was made to perfection and was artistically presented. The Icehouse for lunch in the back garden is also wonderful. Island house is only a short block to the beginning of the shops. Along the way are the art museum, the fort and the grocery store is the first shop. The view from the Island house is beyond compare being just across the street from the marina. Sitting on the porch and rocking and just watching the horse and buggies and people go by are so relaxing. A couple of our suggestions are being addressed by the Island house: a grab bar for getting into the bathtub which can be asked for at the front desk as well as toiletry containers that are easier to squeeze. We will always choose Island house.

They had excellent dinning choices on-site. The BBQ behind the hotel and the sit-down elegant dining in the hotel. Views galore from the porch area and lawn seating. They also sold box lunches to take on the go that were gourmet and better than anything you could find out (included an apple, chips, fresh warm cookies and we got turkey/bacon/Swiss and Cheddar/PrimeRib sandwiches plus a drink) Try finding that downtown for just $20.00 each. And, two blocks down from the hotel, a grocery store and wonderful bakery beside it. Across the street (yellow building) another excellent restaurant. Also, show your key and get free admission to the Manoogian Museum. And, bikes to rent on site.

Great location in an historic building in a quiet part of Mackinac Island. Convenient to town. Solicitous staff who were helpful in getting our luggage to and from the nearby ferry. We received a food voucher which we used at the excellent 1852 Restaurant in the hotel. We had both breakfasts there, as well. The room was on the small side and the bathroom sink was in the bedroom. This is the price to pay for historic.

Beautiful hotel! It was very relaxing to sit on the front porch and look out at the lovely view before us…horse drawn carriages, boats on Lake Huron, and a manicured front lawn with vibrant colored flowers!

The Island House

A charming Inn from the 1800’s that has been meticulously kept up to date. If you have a challenge walking stairs be sure to request a first floor room. The property has beautiful views of the water front. It is very charming.

Nice older, well kept property. Our room was tiny and had a window that faced a walkway. Tiny bathroom, minimal storage. Bed was reasonably comfortable. Very expensive but we were at a popular tourist destination at the height of the season. Onsite restaurant was EXCELLENT-- arguably the best on the island and definitely the best that we tried. The island experience was great--very dufferent, quiet and peaceful.
