Holiday Inn never disappoints. They have the best breakfast choices and many of them. The rooms are always clean. Beds are pretty comfy. My only complaint about this particular hotel was the bathroom sink out in the room instead of in the bathroom. But there’s nothing they can do to change that. Just poor design.

The view was fabulous. The hotel has a shuttle pick-up for the Shepler's Ferry and that saved us parking costs. The breakfast was between good and great but we still enjoyed having it available each morning.

Lovely and affordable! Great breakfast bar and ample spaces. Good swimming/jacuzzi, tub in the room, lake view and firewood pit lit up at night! I would spend more time to drive the bridge to make my night to here to save money from not staying in Mackinaw City. Stay here in St Ignace instead!

The hotel is dated and could use some renovations. It is located right on the shore and offers direct access to the beach. There is also a fire pit on the patio. These features helped compensate for the hotel’s somewhat worn condition.
