Great house, fantastic location. It would be tight for 8 adults but a family with kids could make the sleeping capacity work. Beds were comfortable. It was a very pleasant experience!

This was the perfect place to stay! You can walk to the ferry dock to catch the boat to Mackinac Island. Many shops and places to eat nearby. The house was adorable and it was perfect for our group of 7 people. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Property is right where you want to be in Mackinaw City. Walking distance to the ferry, downtown, many restaurants, Wienerlicious, and just south of the bridge. The house itself has two closed bedrooms but plenty of other places to sleep. Clean and easy. Host communicated well. Laundry was in the house. Would recommend to others who want to stay in Mackinaw.
