Overall it was great. We did not like the check out policy of having to sign a waiver for them to remove our bags from our room if we did not check out on time - offensive and unbelievable that they would ask that.

The room had one light in the main space, the sink drain had an odor, the bathroom fan did not work, and the hotel phone did not work, the hotel did not have any extra blankets, and room keys had to be reprogrammed twice, lots of spiders and webs outside of the room and all over the windows, no closet of place to hang things, the room had a musty smell that got worse throughout our stay.

Check in wasn't very pleasant. You will need shoes to get in the water due to stones. Nice they light bonfires every night at 7pm! Breakfast nothing special. Very clean place.

We had a wonderful time. We didn't receive smore bag as promised but the fire pits and view were amazing. Lots of hotels and this one is the only one with the fire pits on private beach. View of bridge is beautiful. Will come again .

I can’t say enough nice things about this property. One of the cleanest places I’ve ever stayed!! Perfect view of the Mackinac Bridge from the room. We stayed in October, and I bet the property is really something else in the summer.

Our room was small. There were spider webs and spiders in the window. The room had poor lighting. The bathroom is in need of an update and the shower was challenging to use. The TV remote only worked periodically. The breakfast was good.
