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!

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.

    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.

    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.

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.
