Having a very large two rooms with a full bathroom and a partial bathroom, with a balcony over the beach, with the Lake Huron water also below the balcony. Excellent rooms for the price.

Mackinaw Beach and Bay Inn and Suites shows signs of age, but it is located right on the water with a lovely view of Lake Huron. The room tvs are small, but the channel selection is excellent. It's about a 20 minute walk to the center of town where shopping for souvenirs is located, so the Beach and Bay Inn is quiet. Suites with balconies are spacious and have a marvelous view of Mackinaw Island in the distance. The refrigerator and microwave enable the guest to do some cooking. There is a market/foodstore a few minutes by car from the Inn. The staff is helpful and friendly, especially the gentleman who came in at 4:30 AM each day to cook breakfast for the guests. My toilet would flush properly my first day and within an hour, two maintenance personnel came and got it working. I enjoyed my stay.

Too far from downtown
This hotel is about 1/2 mile from downtown where all the shops and restaurants are located. I was sorry we weren’t closer. The lobby was good but our room was run down, rust on the vents, dirty balcony. I thought I was booking 2rooms and it was one big room with the bathroom in the middle separating the beds. Not good if you want privacy.

Great lake view. The room set up was different than usual with the bathroom being between the 2 bedroom areas and created nice privacy. The rooms were quiet at night and in the morning.

There were a few things wrong with the room. A tile had come off the bathroom counter, chipped and it had been put back on with the chip. There was a hole in the ceiling of the shower which was plugged by a piece of paper. When we needed more toilet paper we had to come down to the lobby. When we asked for more pillows, they said I don’t think we have any.
