I had a memorable visit here. The location was great, making it easy to explore, and the pool was clean, allowing children to enjoy themselves. I appreciated that check-in went smoothly. I was reminded of my love for walks as I strolled to nearby shops and restaurants during my stay. My partner and I enjoyed some time relaxing by the outdoor setup.

The breakfast options were limited, and I was hoping for more variety. The room felt compact, and the bathroom setup was not ideal. It could have used some attention for a more comfortable experience.

I loved staying here, especially enjoying the cozy atmosphere and the surprise cheese and wine reception! The outdoor pool was perfect for relaxing after our adventures, and the garden area was a nice touch too. Just keep in mind the bugs on the first night were a bit much, but overall, it was a great experience! 😊

I had a great stay. The pool was clean and well-maintained. The location was ideal, just a short walk to the lake. The staff were friendly and accommodating. Check-in was easy and quick. 😊

It was just a fitting option for a quick trip in Mackinaw City with decent value for money. I loved the complimentary wine and snacks in the evening. Make sure to arrive early to enjoy the afternoon treats.

Had a great time with friends, visiting the island and touring the historic water-powered sawmill. The room was comfy, and we loved the beautiful grounds. Plus, the location was perfect, just a short walk from the marina and beach.

One drawback was that the breakfast could have had more variety. It was just okay, nothing special.

My kids wished for a later checkout time for more fun at the beach before leaving. A small play area for kids would have been ideal.

i loved staying at american boutique inn, lakeview! the room was spotless, and the shower had amazing water pressure. the outdoor pool was a fantastic bonus, and it had a lovely view of the bridge. it’s super close to the ferry for mackinac island, making it so convenient.

100% recommend

Comfy stay with lovely grounds, and you can stroll to the ferry in a snap. Perfect for those sunset beach moments! Bonus points for a boxed breakfast that was perfectly delightful.

Just beware of either freezing or burning water—my shower turned into a game of ‘guess the temperature’!

The details you care about most

This place truly impressed us! The room was spotless with great water pressure in the shower, and the outdoor pool was a highlight. Located in a quiet neighborhood, we enjoyed beautiful sunset views of the bridge just across the street. Perfectly walkable to nearby attractions! Would definitely return!

The location is excellent, a short walk to the beach. Limited breakfast options were a downside.

This place suits me perfectly! It offers free wi-fi, a nice outdoor pool, and a flat-screen TV. The staff even helped me find my way on my first visit. I’ll be coming back for a weekend!

I loved the beautifully landscaped grounds and vibrant flower gardens around the hotel. The heated outdoor pool was a delightful surprise, complemented by comfortable seating areas. It made for a peaceful atmosphere, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploration.

More breakfast options would enhance the experience.

The room had many bugs, but the landscaping was really nice.

The older motel boasts a clean, welcoming atmosphere, and the well-maintained pool is a highlight for families. The location is perfect—just a short walk to downtown and the waterfront, with stunning views of the Mackinac Bridge across the street. However, the small bathrooms and inadequate blinds let in too much morning light, making for an unpleasant start to the day. Additionally, the breakfast service was lacking, as items ran out quickly and staff weren't attentive enough to replenish them. Overall, a charming option for a brief stay.
