Horrible! We were given an outdated room with broken furniture. Toilet clogged the second day. Shower head stopped working. Only thing nice was it was close to the Mackinaw island ferry.

Check in is at the Crown hotel next door. Room was a little dated but right near the lake and town, close enough to walk to attractions. Room has a coffee maker similar to keurig, but would not fit k cups or other brands. So if you are one to bring your own coffee, it won’t work here.

The pool and Waterpark are the reasons we stayed here. The pools and pool area could use some attention, but it was decent enough. I did step on something sharp in the Waterpark area which had to be pulled out of my foot and bled a lot, so I've got that going for me. Here's hoping for no infections!

Definitely underwhelming. Should pass
The photos show breakfast. No breakfast. Pool hours are limited to either new or multi day guests. The pool hours are short so it is not meant to be used by guests as they please. Other guests mentioned complaints regarding not working showers and misleading breakfast information. Room was clean ish but many things about this are misleading.

Free breakfast was advertised online, but I was told "no breakfast" only coupons for local restaurants. The carpet was so dirty that our shower floor was grey at first. Wallpaper in corridor was peeling showing black mold behind. To get to the pool we needed to cross over to another building, walk over 100 yards, take an elevator with smelly carpet to the third floor then walk down two flights to get to the pool door. The spa jets weren't working. Black mold on the pool deck edge. Refrigerator froze the food. Staff was not rude but cold and not particularly helpful.
