What a beautiful place to stay. The house is beautiful and huge! Large common areas to eat and…read morechill. Our room was on the third floor and it was very spacious. We had a sitting room, king-sized bed, and whirlpool. Our private deck provided a view of Lake Huron. We only stayed one night so we only got to enjoy one breakfast. We had sausage, cheesy potatoes, fresh fruit and a cinnamon roll. It was wonderful. Seating is between 8-9:30am. A self-serve coffee/tea bar is available 24/7. As an added bonus, they serve dessert from 7-8pm nightly. We got to enjoy that one night as well. Dessert was a chocolate brownie topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and caramel. Omg, it was so good. We really should have spilt one as they were huge. The place was in a great location. It was a short walk to the Mackinac Island ferry. We walked to a dinner spot. All the shops were only a short walk away. We got there early (before our room was ready) and they allowed us to park in their lot so we didn't have to pay for parking in the ferry lot. Finally, the staff was absolutely wonderful. So helpful. So welcoming. Whatever you needed, they were there for you. The place is spotless. The food is amazing. So glad we stayed.

Many Inn keepers make you feel at home, but Tom and Carol make you truly feel like family. As I said before my wife and I stay at a lot of B&B's. We never stay in the same place more than once. We love to experience a new place each time. But this is our third stay here on our 10 day vacation in the UP. We kept coming back because we seriously missed this place, Tom, Carol, and of course Zeke their super well behaved and friendly dog. There is so much more here than just their beautiful home, the calming awe of their land, their incredibly friendly sheep, the acres and acres of trails they have on their land, the nice added touch of the sauna on the back porch, the wide open sky perfect for star gazing you usually get from the UP combine with being on a large acred farm, and of course Zeke! Carol and Tom are the heart and soul of this place. They are what make this house, a home. I could go on and on about how much we valued our stay. But like I said, I can not express enough how great this place is. To give you an idea of how much we love this place, my wife and I drove from Eagle Harbor to stay here one more night. Staying here will be one of the best memories of your trip.

Wonderful B&B! My fiance and I just got home from a stay at the Cottage Inn of Mackinac Island,…read moreand I can't think of a better place to stay. They do book up quickly, so the room we had originally wanted wasn't available, but the Mackinac Suite up on the 3rd floor was perfect. It was a little more expensive than we had planned per night, but luckily we were able to get our third night free due to a "Buy 2, get one night free" special... so the overall cost was the same or cheaper than we paid at the Chippewa the year before. Walking into the Cottage Inn, it's a pretty little place, and conveniently located three buildings down from the corner of Market & Fort. We could hear the cannons, rifles, and bugles from the Fort during the day, which was nice and relaxing... even the cannons were relaxing at that distance! It was a nice touch to feel like you were "back" in that era a little bit. The room we stayed in, The Mackinac Suite, was awesome. Walking into the suite, the first room has a queen-sized, an end table, a mini-fridge, a ceiling fan, and a large closet. To the left was the "master" bedroom... which also had a queen-sized bed. It also had a dresser, a flat screen tv with built in dvd player, a couple of end tables with lamps, a ceiling fan at, a large window with a great view of the street, and a bathroom with a stand up shower. Going back out to the main room, the other doorway leads to the turret sitting room. The sitting room had a great view of the fort, along with three comfy chairs, a table, and a flat screen tv with a built in tv player. There was also a ceiling fan. There are ceiling fans in every room there, I think! We spent evenings in the sitting room, watching dvds (thoughtfully provided by the B&B - they have a selection downstairs that you can borrow) and relaxing. I have to admit that we never made it to breakfast, so I can't comment on that... but I heard that it was good! Also, at 3pm they bring out treats from a local fudge shop, so there is peanut brittle, caramel corn, and fudge to snack on. They also have coffee, tea, and water on hand throughout the day. Rich & Marge, the owners, were very nice and helpful as well. They provided suggestions on a few restaurants on the island, as well as copies of menus so that we could see what was offered. They also were able to provide me with a 10% off discount to the Lilac Spa, as well as discount coupons for several area restaurants. Michelle, who took care of cleaning our rooms, was great, and are rooms were cleaner than in most hotels that I've stayed at. Danny & I will be back at the Cottage Inn... and I highly recommend others to try it out as well!

Pretty cool place overall! Always a very clean, happy, comfortable environment. The innkeepers and…read morethe front desk are the nicest people. Breakfast is always a fun experience, although it gets pretty annoying having the SAME breakfast every morning. I feel like no one knows how to cook here. It doesn't even taste that great, you get like baked eggs EVERY morning which aren't that good with either muffins or cookies. Never changes. I mean if that's all your going to cook then it should at least taste good. No toppings for bagels either. I'm tempted to just never eat breakfast here and go spend my money on a restaurant. I mean I did pay for a bed and BREAKFAST. It's really making me consider other hotels on the island. I'd like to see more options and recipes.
