If I could give them a 0 I would. Our school trip was scheduled for May 1-3rd to Chicago and…read morecanceled with the pandemic. When it was canceled they promised a full refund but said we had to wait for all the venders to open. We waited and waited and then in mid July we received a letter saying they would only offer anything above the deposit that was paid. $300+ per family, over $8,000 for our school alone. We contacted the company three times asking for an explanation of what the $150 deposit per person was being used for with no response. While I understand this is a hard time for everyone and they made the arrangements they could not provide back up with any invoices or bookkeeping to support their calculations. On top of that the district requires trip insurance, that this company said was included, and then after they said it did not cover anything. In a second letter received by some parents the company had the audacity to lie and say the school canceled the trip and that they offered a discounted trip or credit to the school for the non-refunded deposit. We are a small school and we as parents talk to our school staff all the time. No such offer was ever made to the school. I would not use or trusting this company.

If you stay at the Grand Hotel, there is a good chance that you might have an original painting by…read moreMarlee decorating the walls. She has her own store on the ground level of the Grand and you can purchase one of her posters of the said hotel, too. Apparently, she is the daughter-in-law of the recently deceased patriarch of the owner's family. Personally, some of the art is a little too bright and borders on garish colors, but others are quite nice. She has had much artistic training as well as varied exhibits. My favorite piece in her store was a sofa that you see as soon as you enter which she has loving painted on with cheery flowers on the part where your back would be touching while sitting. It is very unique and would be a jewel in any room. It is worth a look see if you are already in the Grand Hotel.

Our economy room had two queen beds, a refrigerator, microwave with a terrace overlooking the pool. Our room was dated but very clean, quiet and sufficient for two nights. There was plenty of free parking. The motel was right on Lake Huron, the Straits of Mackinac. We are a five minute walk to the ferry to Mackinac Island. Breakfast was served until 10 o'clock in the morning. It was very busy with big groups of children under five and seniors; an interesting mix. There were three waffle makers with assorted toppings, coffee, frozen pastries, yogurt, biscuits & gravy, eggs & bacon. There was an indoor & an outdoor pool, coin operated washing machines, fitness center, nightly bonfire and playground on the premises. A golf cart shuttled seniors & children around the property.

Good decision! Room was clean, wifi worked well, never heard any sounds from adjoining room although I was there for 8 nites and there were several different guests next door. Street noise: yes, but didn't keep me awake or wake me up. As noted by another, the shower stall is small, but there was plenty of hot water and great water pressure. Mattress was softer than I prefer, but that's personal preference. Armand, his wife and staff were very helpful with questions about where to eat, what to see. While there, met a couple who'd been staying there every summer for many years. Definitely would return.

The trails are well maintained with gravel, although some parts can be muddy if it had rained recently. At this time of year, be sure to bring plenty of bug spray! You can see views of the bridge from several view points, or soak in the woods and wildflowers. If you're not sure what to do, the park ranger in the fee booth has great recommendations, as well as lawn games if you're bored when camping. Note you need to pay an entrance fee if you don't have the Michigan recreation passport (you pay when you register your car in Michigan).

My biggest issue is with their parking company. They have a 3rd party run their lot and are…read more(according to their staff) not part of Arnolds. I bought a gift card online to pay for my sons overnight parking as they were arriving after us. While the gift card says its good for all ferry rides it does say that it doesn't cover parking. They would not accept the gift card nor would they give me a refund for the card. As for parking, I paid the upgrade of $40/ day for 2 days. (I parked at 4PM Wednesday and left at 1PM on Friday which is less than 48 hours). They say that their overnight parking starts a midnight but its midnight of the DAY you parked. So, if you are on the last ferry and park at 7pm you have until midnight of the 2nd day. A time when they aren't even open. Since I didn't leave the parking lot till 1PM, I got a fine of an additional $80. When I disputed it with the company that runs the parking, they said that that is their policy and the fine was issued properly. In other words, though parking isn't by Arnolds, their partners parking fee structure is misleading and their customer service is unhelpful. I have been using Arnolds every year for the ferry but I will not longer use their service because of this.
