The motel is the old style where you drive up to the door of your room. And the room was very basic. But it was just what we needed. Clean, comfortable and very convenient. It's located right on the highway and the Mackinac Island Ferry shuttle stops here when you call. It was so nice to just park at the motel and be picked up instead of having to drive down to the St. Ignace dock and pay for parking. Armand is very kind and helpful and as you can see from the photos he has a very impressive garden. It really makes the motel stand out.
