    Beautiful and friendly atmosphere! The house is right up the street from downtown and the ferry. The staff was friendly and the property was clean. The front has a decent sized deck surrounded by beautiful flowers, with chairs to relax both on the lawn and the deck. We enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend it when staying on Mackinac island!

    Wow, what more can I say. Our stay was wonderful, and words cannot do it justice. We honeymooned here 10/22-10/23, and we wish we could have stayed longer. Our trip was spectacular, and the shining highlight was the Cloghaun! We stayed in room 10, which had a large, beautiful, antique tub and bed along with period art and furniture. The mattress was comfortable, pillows plush, towels were overstocked in abundance, and our room was immaculately clean. We were tickled pink by the glycerin soap provided which smelled like gardenias (to me, very light floral) and the lovely quilt on our bed. The staff was exceptional. We had many wonderful conversations and felt at home. Being that it was the off season, we were one of the few couples there, and we were treated like VIP guests. They had great recommendations for food, and were always happy to help with a smile. We also booked a "special deal" where due to us staying on non-peak times in the off season we received an excellent rate. This included a hot breakfast with delicious strata and coffee cake, and a tea time with their 7 layer bars and a selection of teas that you could have in their lovely china. Those 7 layer bars. Oh my goodness. My husband and I could have eaten them out of house and home! I could not recommend this place more to anyone. We will definitely stay again!

    The location was perfect, only a block from the ferry docks and we could walk to restaurants and the Grand Hotel.

    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.

The owners of the bed-and-breakfast were incredibly nice and even booked a taxi for us for a dinner the next day. They had a light breakfast that was fun to get the day going. You were able to choose from a fruit cup, or yogurt parfait, and some baked goods and a hard-boiled egg. The baked goods were made on site. 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. We were there to celebrate our anniversary and they had some sparkling cider, chocolates, and some champagne flutes that we were able to keep to remember this special occasion

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.

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!

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.

    I stayed here for 2 nights and it was wonderful! The staff were warm and gracious, the food was…read moredelicious and the room was well appointed. I really enjoyed it and will stay here again next time I come to Mackinac Island.

The new room was spacious, clean and with a window air conditioner unit that was quiet plus did not take up room space. I understand the resort had extremely limited availability.

The bathroom is unbelievably outdated and tiny. You hear the conversations of the rooms next to you along with all the noise in the hall. The rooms are far from the Main office.

It is a bit of a trek over there from the ship crossings, but they handle the baggage, so you just need to walk down there. This is actually a resort, not just a hotel - but we didn't take advantage of a lot of that. I will say, it was a little trek between Main and Straight lodges for our group, since we had to be in Straights with the dogs, but otherwise we really enjoyed it. The pizza place in the main lodge was GREAT - really surprising. Staff was sooo nice to both us and our pups throughout our visit. Nice little store with ice cream and alcoholic drinks to supplement the ice cream. Seems a lot of reviews focused on the cost, which was high, but unfortunately that's just the market on this island. We really enjoyed our stay here - and it was a huge perk to be able to have our pups with us.
