90's condo, needs updating. Bicycles need replacing. Woman's bike did not down shift to 1st gear without chain coming off. Unable to ride bike back to condo, very unfortunate. Felt stranded 1.7 miles from downtown unless wanting to pay for taxi. Stonecliffe was a silver lining. Great grounds and restaurants.

Rofi was very quick to respond to all messages and offered additional suggestions/guidance to ensure I could easily walk/bike around the island.While I understand this may not always be the case, I was able to access the unit a bit ahead of schedule which worked well as I was juggling logistics with bag and bike. I was fully transparent with Stonecliff staff making them aware I was not in one of their adjacent condos, but they were still kind to support with their porter service. The location adjacent to Stonecliff is wonderful as it provides convenient access to local dining options. The fact that I conveyed I would likely be taking advantage of this may have helped with the porter service support :-)When I wanted something different it took less than 10 minutes to ride into town. The rest of the time I could enjoy the peace and quite of being out of the mainstream.This studio is cozy but has absolutely everything that is required for a short stay.

The studio *was* charming. The area was nice with a local restaurant. Note that the location is a 30 minute walk or carriage ride from downtown. We had great weather and enjoyed the walk but keep that in mind.

Studio apartment in a great location

The studio apartment has everything we needed, microwave, small refrigerator, sink, dishes, silverware and coffee maker including coffee. The bathroom has a tub with jets and is big enough to accommodate my wife and I (yes, at the same time, lol). And it's 100 yards from the best restaurant on the island, The Woods, imo.

Great Little Get A Way

Well kept. Bikes were a plus. I would add baskets on them for a place to put items when out and about. Jaccuzzi tub was a plus every night after a long bike ride downtown. Quiet. Balcony was nice at night to have a glass of wine or two. Would recommend.

Mackinac Island Condo Rental near Stonecliffe

Overall enjoyable experience in a well maintained and clean studio unit, with interior land views. Lots of construction ongoing at both Stonecliffe Inn (throughout 2023) and Woods Restaurant (through June 2023), so you need to be a bit flexible with construction traffic and noise in the morning. The downtown area is easily accessible by Island (horse-drawn) taxi service, with lots of outdoor hiking and walking in the immediate area.

Peaceful surroundings

LOVED being away from more congested areas but you have to be willing to walk a lot or ride the bikes (pushing them uphill for some distance). We enjoyed the exercise! My husband was able to enjoy the peaceful balcony while doing work on computer. The bikes provided were excellent. I would recommend this place to anyone who doesn’t mind a little physical activity getting back and forth to different places. Owner responded quickly to any need we encountered and even recommended good places for us to eat.

Nice and quiet

The location of the condo ( by the woods restaurant) was nice and quiet. It was great after a day on Main Street and/or golfing. Everything was great and it was really nice to have the bikes. The only thing I would change is the picture that shows the location. It is not downtown but about 2 miles out. If you are not a Walker/hiker you will need bikes and taxis(uphill to condo). Oh- and condo is by Sunset Rock as well. A nice benefit❤️

Quiet location

We loved being on the quiet side of the island!! There was a bit of confusion about our check in date, so the property wasn’t finished being cleaned, but it was addressed promptly. We couldn’t find the bikes, but the owner was very responsive and we got what we needed with almost no delay. Would be lovely if there was more helpful hints (eg, how to find our way to the outer pathway thru the neighborhood rather than going all the way downtown). Overall a great place to stay if you want to avoid the crowds!!

Beautiful and quiet

The accuracy of the other reviews is correct. It is a bit of a ways from the town. We had our own bikes, which can make it a bit easier to get around. Approx. 15-20 minutes to ride to town. The location of the condo, once there, is beautiful. The bike ride into the inner of the island is peaceful. We experienced a part of the island we hadn’t seen before. Less people and quiet. The condo balcony (2nd floor) does face into a nice garden area. There is a patio/deck on site, that overlooks the straits and if weather is right, you get a beautiful sunset! Clean, comfortable room.

Decent but a few suggestions

Setting was very nice, decor very dated as pics show-prob 30 years old. Mattress NOT comfy, could be modified w/a nice mattress cover. No instructions to A/C & we couldn’t get it to work. Cool enough to have windows open but a lil noisy when guests are out late at night & early morn. Plug in garden tub was broke & wouldn't hold water. Overall an ok value. Only 3 bath towels provided for 2 people for a 4 night stay. Attention to these details given/fixed & we would come back. Serene, beautiful location.
