    🙂The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was very nice, clean, and cozy too. We enjoyed the location to the downtown area. The view of the the Mackinaw Bridge 🌉 especially at night when the bridge is lite up with colorful lights is beautiful. The beach is very close to the motel. A nice stroll along the sandy beach with the sound of the water lapping on the shore is so relaxing and a great way to start or finish you day in the city of Mackinac.
