Really rude customer service. The guy was very uninviting. The older woman seemed nice. I thought it was very unprofessional they had a dog behind the desk with food back their too for people to buy. The beds were super comfy. The room was clean. Jacuzzi tub in room was big enofor two comfortably. The windows in the room were small. The tv was small. The bathroom was nice and clean. The housekeepers do a great job.

nice location on the water, friendly staff and clean. Second time staying here, within walking distance to ferry and town, if you like to walk, it is about 1 1/2 miles.

Beautiful property. Room had STRONG odor of cleaning products. I asked for a different room and told none available and same cleaning products used in all rooms. No one from staff came to our room to understand our concerns. I was told to open the slider to air out the room. That did work after a few hours however if it had been a cold winter day that would not be an option. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone with allergies or asthma. Hotel accepted pets charging $35 fee however area for dogs did not have a waste container nor did it have a poop bag dispenser.

All listings did not match actual conditions. Breakfast not included. Pets were allowed, however, listed as "not allowed" on the website. Pool closed, although I specifically booked it as it appeared to be a nice pool. The voucher they included for another pool was rated as unsanitary so we elected not to use the voucher. Voucher discount was for a crappy breakfast. Hotel booking, I called the lobby and specifically asked for a room away from the elevator and confirmed with staff. Bonnie said we were on the opposite end from the elevator. We were in fact booked right next to the elevator and ice machine. Tile was cracked and damaged in the bathroom. Carpets were saturated. Smell in lobby is likely due to sewer main backup. Moisture caused soft floor in lobby area. Blood was seen on beds at sides of bedsheets. We made it through the stay but I was very disappointed with booking. Thankfully our family powered through it and we had a good time. When you pay near $200 a night, you expect better.

False advertisement! There was no open pool or swimming, no mini golf like it states and not even microwaves in the rooms!!

Hotel looks like it dates back to the 70s. Paid $200 for a room that was dimly lit and uncomfortable. Water park was closed down when we went - no water in pool, just looked abandoned. Arcade was run down and overlooked the empty water park which was creepy. Only 3 actual games in the arcade and one did not even work (bowling).
When we checked in at 6:30pm, our room was not even ready. We were told by the front desk staff that they had to call in extra housekeepers because the ones that were there weren’t doing their job. Was told our room would be ready then went to it to find housekeeping had just started cleaning and it would be another half hour. Switched to a different room and that one had a broken tv that woke me up at 3am by flashing on and off until we unplugged it.
Overall I would recommend you stay at any other hotel on that strip - this one was poorly managed and rundown.

My girlfriend and I wanted to visit the area for hiking and access close to the Dark Park. So we booked this hotel with the lake view and we enjoyed it very much. It was only 3 minute drive to restaurants and downtown Mackinaw City and only 10 minutes to the Dark Park. The room had a great view & mini hot tub. No free breakfast was the only drawback but we did not mind.

Quick stay but open for check in at any time arrived late. Right on the lake can walk right out the back door onto the beach! Real nice stay and reasonably priced.

It was a good hotel for what we needed but there was no room cleaning unless we asked for it. Our trash was full and weren't asked if we needed anything in the room. Since the hotel didn't offer breakfast, it would have at least been nice to have good cream (not the standard half-half) available in the morning. Front desk staff were great though and very friendly and helpful!

Great room for the value. We only were staying for the night and left in the morning. Great access to the lake and beach. For some reason they didn’t have any breakfast served which was one of the reasons we booked

So this place hypes their watermark, what a disappointment! The slide is out of service, it doesn’t look like the pool or kiddie area was cleaned in years! The lazy river was worse! Such a disappointment!

Room size was much bigger than we expected. It wasn’t the room I reserved online, the staff said it was a much better room. Which was BS. After seeing it, I requested my original room choice and I was told, sorry it was no longer available. The staff offered No discount for the downgraded room. Accommodations were for 6 guests. Reservations were for a room with a lakeside view, unfortunately we only had a parking lot view and no balcony. Waterpark was only 1/2 useful due to it being shut down and didn’t open until 12pm, dirty foam floating on the water. Game room was nice, except the 2 bowling lanes that according to staff had been broken for 4yrs. No breakfast at all on the premises either, BoGo at 2 nearby locations with awful 2* reviews. A lot of trash, cigarette butts and animal feces around the property. No fire wood on site for the fire pits. Dogs are allowed here and I was not ok with that due to allergies.No pamphlets were available in the lobby either. I also reached out to hotels.com, not happy with this property or the lack of resolutions. Only thing that was nice was the location and view.

Water slides in the water park where closed bridge to the slides wood was rotted and falling apart. Window in the bedroom was to the point if someone pushed on it to hard it would fall out. No breakfast. Internet was slow. Had to use 2 different remotes to control the TV. No complementary shampoos or anything in the bathroom. Shower head had rust on it, tile in the bathroom was cracked

We've stayed here several times, great view of the bridge and island, they are always cleaning the rooms, great to see. There was a new porch that had been built, very nice, they are making improvements. The waterpark is nice for kids, the slides and one pool were closed the last couple times we were there, so that could use some attention, but the lazy river is nice to float in, there is a game room, the air hockey and pool are alot of fun. U can also bring ur pet along if u want, there were dogs of all breeds and sizes there. One thing i didnt care for, and im not a mean person, but 2 of the nights we were there, 2 big buses of people rolled in, guessing a sunset tour of somesort, we open our patio blinds and literally right on the other side of our patio fence were a bunch of people from the bus sitting, they looked at us as if us coming out on our patio was rude. Or something. And they took the table off our patio, very rude, I feel like they were a bit too close and it is kind of rude to sit right in front of someones patio when u dont have that room. whether ur there for the night or not, there is plenty of beach to sit on, why sit in front of us, blocking our view, that we also pay good money to have, i feel like there should be a designated place for them to sit, as they sip there whine, laugh loudly and look at u rudely as u walk in and out of ur room door! Just a suggestion, we didnt go on our patio while they were there, which is a shame! It was sunset! Primetime!

Very friendly service upon arrival and throughout. Having stayed in at least 20 hotels and motels throughout the U.S. since spring, this property was a breath of fresh air as far as friendly service and cleanliness. Would stay again!

READ THIS REVIEW!!! My trip started by noticing that I had a charge on my card for both rooms I booked in the full amount! Thank god I had a high enough balance on my card to cover the cost of this and my trip. I called the facility and they stated that is their policy on busy weekends? I had selected pay at facility as I have done many times before and used my card to hold the rooms for myself and the people I was travelling with! Now I had the full amount as a hold on my card for both my room and theirs before we had even checked in! Once we checked in I was informed that I would have the hold taken off my card in 3-5 business days. Thank god I have the means to cover this but that could have ruined someones vacation if that is all they had budgeted for! Now once we arrived we found the rooms were falling apart. Wall paper peeling, my fathers rooms till had dirty towels. They water park was disgusting! The water slides were in shambles the roof was falling in over them! The smell alone of the water was enough to gag me! Beautiful beach front and great view salvaged an otherwise what could have been a terrible weekend!

The space in the room was nice. The bedding was minimal with only a sheet and very thing blanket. The shower tub drained very slow. The pool water smelled of rotten something. The kid area and lazy river were very dirty and gross. The large slides weren’t working which we weren’t made aware before the stay.

The bedsheets smelled funny. The property is very old. Shower did not have any pressure water, overall unsatisfactory experience.
2.0
The staff is very nice, helpful, pleasant. The outside of the hotel looks nice, but the rooms are old, worn, no modern updates. The beds are comfortable. The shower had good water pressure. Please let customers know they need to request to have their rooms cleaned as well as fresh towels. The first floor bedspreads are a drab brown, second floor are white - makes a huge difference in how the room presents. There is no breakfast offered, yet some websites still list it as available. Please correct this ASAP. This makes customers very unhappy. I strongly suggest offering at least a continental breakfast. It really is an expectation with customers and it goes a long way. But be sure to advertise it correctly, as continental. Offering coupons to nearby restaurants as your breakfast option cheapens the experience. The coffee was good. The lakefront balconies are very nice, but they weren't cleaned. Spiders, cig butts, someone put out cigs on the wall. The location is good. Parking is good. Staff was very helpful with ferry and shuttle reservations. Kevin was wonderful. Every staff member was excellent. Overall it was a pleasant experience.
