It's been two months since our wonderful trip and overnight stay at Hart's Inn on Mackinac Island…read morebut I am still dreaming about it! What a beautiful, peaceful, relaxing, comfortable little inn! Just one street removed from the main drag, staying here means you'll have all the convenience of hanging near the action, but none of the noise and congestion. Granted, you have to walk up a small hill, but it is quite manageable, even after a night of pub-pedaling (like a pub crawl but on a bicycle!) Forget that fancy place with the big front porch, I love the far less expensive, cozy little red and white Hart's Inn! Making a reservation by phone was easy and checking in and out meant simply picking up and dropping off keys. The room was pristine, bright and cheery. We slept like logs in a very comfy bed with the in-room a/c set just where we like it. We took breakfast the next morning al fresco under one of the bright red umbrellas. The landscaping and lawn is colorful and lush. It was like eating in a garden. I loved the big white mugs filled with plenty of steaming, strong coffee. Pierre, the young on-site manager was very personable and helpful. He did a wonderful job of making sure all was in good order. After breakfast we took a bike ride around the island then checked out and left our bags with Pierre while we did a little more exploring. I love that Hart's Inn does not require a two night minimum stay. We wish it could have been longer but we only had one night available on our itinerary. Make sure to request a room that opens onto the lawn.

Breakfast is always a fun experience, although it gets pretty annoying having the SAME breakfast every morning. I feel like no one knows how to cook here. It doesn't even taste that great, you get like baked eggs EVERY morning which aren't that good with either muffins or cookies. Never changes. I mean if that's all your going to cook then it should at least taste good. No toppings for bagels either. I'm tempted to just never eat breakfast here and go spend my money on a restaurant. I mean I did pay for a bed and BREAKFAST. It's really making me consider other hotels on the island. I'd like to see more options and recipes.

They also put out some baked goods and fudge samples every afternoon by the front door. Our room was lovely and had a Jacuzzi. Everything was easy to access from the hotel. It's right next to the fort.

The magnetic door card reader is literally hanging off the wall inoperable... and it's the only way to get in... so anyone else can as well. The other two doors magnetic card readers entry pads also do not work!! The room size is acceptable...but just barely. Very small sink area, absolutely no place for daily toiletries, The dresser has the smallest drawers of any hotel we have ever stayed ( corporate people here, lots of travel). The TV also the smallest literally in years of hotel stays... a Phillips 32 inch... AND... absolutely zero premium channels... you can't even order a movie!?!? Yes... Mackinac Island is a tourist destination with lots to do and see... but the nights after walking all day, biking 8.2 miles, you want to get back to a decent room and watch something without commercial pharmaceuticals ads every five minutes... I called the chamber of commerce specifically to check which hotels accept a well trained dog companion... was told... " oh we here at the chamber always recommend St Ignace to our own family members. So... this is the ONLY reason for the "1" rating.... It's the ONLY positive. I will NEVER come back. I will never recommend this run down, old, dated, categorically inadequate hotel... even the manager is clueless on how to run it, says he's new management... Obviously there is a hotel service conglomerate or something that pushes the undesirables to the newbies to Mackinac Island like us... no doubt that the women at the chamber absolutely ruined our first trip with this false recommendation. REALLY FOLKS... HOW OLD ARE THESE 4 and 5 star reviews?!?!?!?! HOW OLD?!?!?!?

This is a review of the Grand Hotel based on our exploration of it; we did not stay here…read more When you go to Mackinac Island, you'll see this magnificent hotel as the ferry gets closer to the island. After a carriage tour of the island, we went here and explored on our own. If you are not staying here, you have to pay an entrance fee to be able to go in and explore. Its porch is the world's longest and offers a great view. Its interiors are intricate and very beautiful. One would see that the carpet, fixtures, and furniture are well taken care of. The vibrant colors, bold contrasts, and floral patterns are everywhere. They have different restaurants inside (Main Dining Room, Cupola Bar, Geranium Bar, The Jockey Club, etc) as well as an ice cream parlor (Sadie's). They also have some areas showcasing artwork/paintings as well as memorabilia from movies shot here: Somewhere in Time and This Time for Keeps. Do not forget to visit the Secret Garden. It's beautiful! The accommodation can be very pricey. Though we did not stay here, visiting (with the entrance fee) is definitely worth it.

Overall it was a beautiful room, but the faucet was barely hanging on in the living room - all the lights had burnt out bulbs, not what we expected for a $2000.00 one night stay. Disappointed that there were maybe a couple of Americans working in the hotel, seemed to employ lots of folks from Jamaica, (that's all there was in the formal dining room) Ukraine and other places. Meaning we couldn't understand the waiters and such. A person gets tired of saying " I don't understand" to your server. The views are amazing, the ambiance is very special. The porch is magnificent. They have a "dress code" after 6:30 of elegance, black tie etc, that they don't enforce in the formal dining room. While my husband and I were appropriately dressed as it was our anniversary, the two tables right in front of us boasted a gang of 6 children and 4 parents, looked like they just came up from the beach. There are other resteraunts that would've suited this family, and they should have been directed there when they came to the dining room. So that was also a disappointment. Lost power for about an hour and a half, dining room has hours of operations, so I wasn't able to fix my hair before we went down. Exploring the island is fun, again couldn't understand the carriage drivers "tour". Supposed to be a hour and a half tour around the island- that wasn't true at all. 3 or 4 stops just sitting there for about 10 minutes to rest the horses - so no, we did not get to see the entire island as promised. Felt a bit ripped off by the $80 per person here. We won't be returning, ratio of Muslims (rude and pushy), Pakistani's and Indian people all pushy and looked entitled soured us walking around - like 10:1 ratio, if not more. I'm not racist, I am an observationist and this is what we witnessed. Not the Mackinac Island I remembered visiting so many times with my Grand Parents over the years - Get it together and return it to the Americans, like it should be.

Housekeeping was very helpful, and the continental breakfast was very good with an attendant always available when needed. Unfortunately, several issues kept this from being a great stay. The check-in experience on Thursday, September 17, 2026, was extremely disappointing. The front-desk employee was unfriendly and seemed unwilling to answer basic questions about the hotel or guest accommodations. On two occasions between approximately 5:00 and 7:30 PM, I tried asking questions about the hotel and was essentially told that everything was on the sheet in our room. I also had an unpleasant interaction when purchasing fudge at the front desk and paying cash. When I asked for a receipt, I was told rather abruptly that there was no receipt available. The internet and streaming service were atrocious. The connection was unreliable and made streaming nearly impossible. For a hotel at this price point, I would expect dependable Wi-Fi. The air conditioning was another concern. From roughly 5:00 to 7:00 PM each day, it barely kept the room comfortable. I would be concerned about how it performs during the hotter months of July and August. The frustrating part is that most of our experience was good. The room, location, breakfast, and housekeeping were all positives. I would consider staying here again, but I hope management addresses the front-desk customer service, Wi-Fi, and air-conditioning issues. Those problems can make a significant difference in an otherwise enjoyable stay.

Two Star Review:…read more Positives: I like to start off being positive. It's a very whimsical and vintage cottage that reminds you of Anne of Green Gables. The price is very affordable compared to other places to stay on Mackinac Island. Trish has so much rich family and island history. It was fascinating to hear about her childhood and memories growing up on the island. The pastries were also very delicious and homemade. The brunch was all ready and on time at 8:30. It is evident that she puts a lot of hard work into making it nice for her guests. The bath towels were very soft and nice. Minor Issues: There was an egg shell that I found in one of the pastries. The rugs are dirty. I didn't feel comfortable after getting out of the shower and walking on the floor. I felt like I needed to wear shoes throughout the house. The black out shade rod kept falling off. The beds are not the most comfortable. There were no central air or window air conditioner units available so the room was very hot at times. Major Issues: I didn't like how I was treated by Trish on several occasions. I didn't feel very welcomed at this place and wouldn't go back. I called a few days prior to our trip asking about the AC and she answered me making me feel like I was an idiot. She answered in a very snarky tone saying, "Ummm...no??? Hardly any of the places on Mackinac have AC." Not only did I feel stupid at the moment, but we later found out that other places did have AC on the island. When we got there, we felt like our room was crowded with our luggage and pack and play and all of the furniture(we had a toddler with us.) I asked her nicely if we could move one of her antique pieces of furniture so that we could put our pack and play in the corner of the room. Again, she was very cold, snarky and not friendly in her response. She said there was no other place to put the antique but I could move it to another part of the room. So as I was upstairs attempting to move it, it wasn't even able to fit through spaces because it was so crowded. Trish comes into the room very confrontationally and emotionally telling me to stop. She barked, "THIS IS MY HOME!! YOU CAN'T JUST MOVE IT. WHY CAN'T YOUR PACK AND PLAY BE HERE???" as she points to a place that wasn't what I had in mind. I tried to remain calm but I felt very unwelcomed and very uncomfortable in the first 5 minutes I was in the inn. I just tried to explain why I felt most comfortable putting my toddler in the corner of the bedroom. Trish seemed very annoyed and irritated about it. The next morning, I tried to be friendly and ask her questions about her life. She often gave me one word responses but was very conversational and friendly towards other guests. It felt like she showed extreme partiality and favoritism towards other guests. There were several times when she asked me when I was going to pay her for the remaining balance payment, which I also felt was really awkward. You don't usually pay the rest of the amount until you check out, but she asked me once when it was late at night and I was trying to put my daughter to sleep. She asked another time at the dining table during breakfast in front of the other guests. It was very unprofessional and awkward, but I just paid her then because I could tell she was getting anxious about it. Lastly, when my toddler was in her pack and play, she ripped part of the wallpaper off because the ends were peeling and she has been interested in textures. I felt terrible and wanted to be upfront with Trish and confess to her to be honest. Trish rolled her eyes and gave me a really stern look and was not gracious about it at all. I felt bad, but I also felt like...if you are going to be running an inn, you need to be flexible and kind when accidents happen. Lastly, my husband hated the place so much that he wanted to leave early. We booked 3 nights, but we only stayed 2 in the end because he just couldn't stand being there anymore. We called Trish saying we were leaving. She didn't even ask why or how she could help. She basically just said, "ok, bye!!!" It seemed like all she cared about was getting our money. We did not feel welcomed by her, which made us really sad because this was our four year anniversary. We planned for months and were really excited about this trip since this was our first time staying on the island overnight. We budgeted and saved so that we could really have a good time. We still made the most of our trip and had fun doing activities such as biking, going out to eat, and visiting the Grand Hotel. I truly don't get it. There were so many great reviews about their experience at the Bogan Lane Inn. I also saw many locals who had so many sweet interactions with her. I wish that was the case with us. I truly tried to build a good relationship with her but she didn't care about us. I hope that this is something I can laugh about in the future as a funny story, but right now I am pretty bummed.
