They can also participate in a 25, 50, 75, or 100-mile bike tour along the shores of Lake Michigan.

“I appreciate its throwback charm and exceptionally clean rooms, plus its enviable spot near both the lighthouse and bridge views; being able to walk to local beaches is a real perk. While the property has seen ownership changes, its prime location and quiet atmosphere remain compelling. It's a solid choice for a no-frills stay in Mackinaw City.”
