Top Fort Mackinac Hotel Reviews

Harbour View Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The property and hotel are beautiful!! The landscaping so inviting, and plenty of outdoor seating. Rooms were very nice! Had a garden view, ground floor, and so nice in the morning just to view the gardens. The breakfast is nice, but if looking for eggs, pancakes, waffles you will need to go elsewhere. Bike rental only 10.00 an hour from the hotel! There is plenty to do on the Main Street at night time, as many bars have live music or the piano man, which is a must see!! Mackinac Island is expensive in general, so just prepare yourself. But the island is beautiful!!!! Highly recommend Harbour View!!"
