We stayed here for a family weekend trip to Mackinaw and this was the perfect choice! The check in process was very simple. The house was very clean upon arriving. Lots of kitchen items stocked as well as a space for laundry which we were very grateful for. Our young children enjoyed the campfire experience with firewood right in the yard and had plenty of room to run around. The house is walking distance to the Colonial Fort and Lighthouse with beach views of the Mackinaw Bridge which we were able to walk to easily with four kids. Very close in distance to the nearby mall with lots of activities and close to the ferry to Mackinaw Island. We would love to come back again soon!

Awesome cottage. Everything was comfortable and really clean. You can't get much closer to the bridge and to Mackinac city. The check in was very smooth and easy. This was our 1st time using Vrbo and not a hotel. This way way better in every way. We will most definitely be back again..

Dutch Harbor was an excellent choice for our family. Dining, shopping and transit to Mackinac Island were all very accessible and within easy walking distance from our location. As a matter of fact we didn’t move the cars out of the driveway at all on Saturday. The neighborhood was very quiet and the property was well kept. There were plenty of towels for the six of us. The property was well stocked with all necessary supplies. The hosts were very easy to work with and check-in was a breeze. Would definitely recommend. The other two units on the property looked very lovely as well. We definitely made the right choice and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
