This place is hands down the best hotel I've ever stayed at. It is so CLEAN!!! I have stayed at The…read moreFour Seasons Maui/West Lake/San Francisco, The Fairmont SF, 5 star hotels all over the country and ironically The Bicycle Inn in Mackinac Island is the most immaculately cleaned hotel we've been to. The beds were also incredibly comfortable, we all slept so soundly we didn't want to check out the next day! LOL Make sure you get a room with a deck, the view overlooking the main street was so freaking cute. The staff was so incredibly nice and they were very accommodating to our needs. The rooms are very accessible friendly for elderly and those with extra needs. I had to find a place where my 96 year old grandma had elevator access, close walking from Shepler's Ferry, and a safe shower. Bicycle Inn covered all marks. It's directly across the street from the Ferry, has an elevator, and the showers are modern and walk right in with a shower handle. It's right on the main street within walking distance of anything you're looking to do! I cannot wait to come back next year!!

Happy to stay here on our next island adventure, but I'll get a different room next time.

This is a great Bed & Breakfast for you to stay at if you are going to Mackniac Island! The…read moreinnkeeper is great and remembers everyone's name. When you check in she has complimentary cookies and Joanne's Fudge. Rooms: They have a variety of sizes and well... colors. Since I was part of a wedding party we rented out basically the entire house and I got to see a variety of rooms. Mine we nicknamed the "Princess Room" (Room #8) because it was all pink and flowery. There was also a honeymoon suite with a big jacuzzi. There was a room which was more of a suite. There was a room with high vaulted ceilings. Breakfast: You will fill out a breakfast sheet the day before of what you would like for breakfast, what time, and where you would like to eat (in your room, the parlor, the courtyard...) They have bagels, muffins, cinnamon buns, hard boiled eggs, juice, coffee, etc... It was just a very homey feel and really loved staying there. They have a journal in the parlor room of various residents that have stayed there over the years that you can read and write your own story. There is a nice front porch and garden where you can watch people walking by.

Kristen (the innkeeper) had a couple of interns (Bess and Tara) with her during our stay. All of them were helpful and friendly. The weekend was unseasonably cold, so we spent a lot of time in our cozy garden suite. Breakfast in our room both mornings was wonderful, and Kristen even told my friend the secret to her delicious coffee (I don't drink coffee and was only ordering so my friend would have double! LOL). I was initially really excited at the availability of Grand Hotel passes, since I've never been inside, but we never really ventured that far in the cold. After having such a great weekend even in miserable weather, I'm looking forward to heading back again with the family this summer.

We stayed in the geranium room and had our own private bath. Wonderful afternoon snacks were for the taking, and a great home cooked breakfast to start the day. You can rent bikes from the hosts; $40 for a 24 hour rental. We sure enjoyed riding their bikes around the perimeter of the island. Small Point has a wonderful wrap around front porch to hang out on, we enjoyed watching the beautiful waters from it. I got up early (around 515am) and walked across the field to the water and watched the sunrise. I'd suggest everyone do this..it was so peaceful and calming. I'd suggest Small Point to anyone, very clean, homey and reasonable in costs.

We somehow managed to tow his bike and get him on my sisters bike. As we slowly made our way through town the owner heard us talking about what we were going to do! He told us to pop over and he filled my nephew's bike tire with air! Then he directed us to the nearest bike shop! (My nephew hadn't rented but brought his bike on the island). He was so nice and so friendly! If he is this kind to strangers, you just know his hospitality extends even farther to guests! We we just day tripping but will FOR SURE stay here when we get back to the island!

This was honestly one of the hardest reviews I've had to write because there were things we really…read moreliked and things that just didn't sit well with us. When I called to finalize our booking, my wife had already spoken to someone named Rose. I called back so we could both speak with her and go over a few questions before booking the room. The woman on the phone Rose was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. She explained everything clearly: when meals were served, how we could get our luggage to the hotel, and what to expect during our stay. She made such a good impression over the phone that we were really excited to stay there. Since there weren't any porters available when we arrived, we walked our bags to the hotel. It wasn't a far walk, and once we got there, we were greeted by Rose at the front desk. She checked us in, asked how many keys we wanted, and directed us to our room. The room was clean and looked just like it did online. It's an older property, so we weren't expecting a 5 start hotel, and that was fine with us. However, the first night I noticed a small spider on the bed. I didn't think much of it at first, old building, things happens. But every night after that and even during the day, I had to kill spiders. This went on every single day of our 3-night stay. My wife was terrified because she doesn't like bugs, especially ones crawling around the room. That alone made it hard for her to relax. The bed was a king, but the pillows were queen-sized and not good at all. We both left with sore necks. By the last night, we were just ready to go. Here's a quick breakdown of the pros and cons: Pros: * Great location--close to shops, restaurants, and local spots. * The staff--Rose, Norman, and everyone we encountered were incredibly welcoming and helpful. * Master SuitesRooms are spacious, and they provide plenty of towels. * Room service is available for fresh linens. * Breakfast was good, two out of the three mornings were great. * Master suites have large jetted tubs with a nice view, which is nice. Cons: * Spiders were everywhere--inside the room, around the stairwells, and all over the balcony. * The balcony was unusable because of the number of small flies and spiders outside. * The showerhead had poor pressure and didn't spray evenly. * Furniture felt old and fragile, definitely due for an update. * Pillows were uncomfortable and left us sore. * The property, while good in its age, is overpriced for how old and worn-down it is. You're not getting your money's worth in terms of comfort or amenities. If I were rating our stay based on service alone, this would be a solid 5-star review. The staff truly went above and beyond. But when adding in the condition of the property and the overall comfort of the stay, I have to give it 3 stars. The negatives outweighed the positives, and unfortunately, we won't be returning.

Rosie and the staff Mae us feel at home. Breakfast, snack and evening desert should not be missed. ​Town was a short walk that even 73 year old folks can manage. Lots of good restaurants and bars to try. Ferry was $42. For 2 people, 2 way trip. Carriage tour was $82, 2 people but worth it. Carriage rides are $8.50 pp. Tours of the Grand Hotel are $12 ea. Can't say enough about the Bay View. Worth the price with all the free food. We went early May. It was mid 50's the whole time. Rates were 1/2 price. Highly recommended any time of year.

I'm not sure owners Nick and Liz Ware have ever stayed at their establishment or they would know…read morewhat a disaster it is. Let's get into it. And remember throughout this review, the room costs $900 per night!!! This place is not a luxury resort as advertised and our "suite" was nothing more than a pretty run down Motel Six room. The check-in process is fairly complicated and throughout our stay the staff acted like they were gatekeeping information and it was a bother to provide information on check in or check out procedures. Our room #2380 was located in the Straights Building and was about a 1/8 mile uphill walk from the front desk. This caused mobility issues for my friends elderly mother in which the hotel provided no help. The room itself was an absolute disaster at about 100 ft.². For $900 a night you get three beds and one chair. When we asked for two additional chairs we were provided two folding chairs. The room itself is very dated and dirty. The tv remote was broken and the bathtub did not drain which required two maintenance men one hour to fix. There are two very noisy window air conditioner units, which will keep you up all night. We had two dogs with us so booked the "luxury "dog package, which is a total scam. It is an extra $200 per night for which they provide a plastic dog bowl. They advertise that they provide dog sitting, but when we asked about this they said to go on the Rover app and book it with a stranger. No thank you. Mission Point Resort tries to pass itself off as old school luxury. In actuality, it is just rundown, dirty and grimy for $900 a night. At this point the only fix for such a dilapidated facility would be to shut it down for several years and do a complete remodel and rehabilitation. We were very disappointed with our stay and would not recommend this establishment.

One of the few dog friendly places on the island. Yes, the rooms are dates and need some TLC but…read moreit's a historical building and it's on an island so you should give it some leeway. Staff is very friendly and efficient. The process to check in luggage at the dock in the city and then they show up in your room was seamless. From the dock to the porters, it's down to a science. Two of the three restaurants allow dogs on the patio, so again - a major win for them. It is on the pricier side BUT you need to weight the pros and cons and we'll always choose Mission Point Resort.
