we just returned from a whirlwind trip around the Michigan UP and Door County, Wisconsin. Stayed two nights at the Deer Head Lodge in Mackinaw City, MI and found the inn keepers to be a vast source of local knowledge as well as great cooks. Our room was on the small side but very well equipped and maintained. But the... More

We are actually still in the Hiawatha Room checking out soon. I couldn't wait to post this review. We did a Bed and Breakfast tour of the area and this was the BEST all around experience. The Inn isn't your typical old fashioned B&B, although it is almost 100 years old. So if you're looking for that victorian feel, it... More

The Deer Head Lodge is a very nice place to stay, within walking distance of many shops, the waterfront, and restaurants. This was a bonus for us because we did not know it was only 1/2 block from numerous shops and restaurants, plus a movie theatre and the waterfront. The buffet breakfast provided something for everyone. We stayed in the... More

My wife and stayed there for three nights and were very pleased with this B&B. The breakfasts were excellent, our room (the Wilderness room) large and comfy, and the hosts very friendly and informative on visiting around Mackinaw City. It's on a quiet street, but it is a short and easy walk to the main street and the ferry to... More

Barry & Nancy have created a great spot. If you're looking for accommodations in Mackinaw City, or as a jumping off point to Mackinac Island, this is where you should look. We stayed in the Hiawatha Room and it was very nicely appointed and certainly clean; the clawfoot tub was really great after a long day of cycling up from... More

This B&B is not only beautiful it is in the perfect location in town. We are very picky about our stays especially while in B&B's but this one was at the top. The breakfasts were outstanding, and served in such a elegant & creative way. Bavarian cheesecake, eggs benedict, fluffy eggs, etc, too many delicious food selections to mention. The... More

What a delightful inn run by helpful, sweet innkeepers. The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated, the beds extremely comfortable, and the breakfasts are out of this world. This is exactly what most people who are B&B travelers look for. You won't be disappointed.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here last month. Great hosts, clean rooms, PERFECT location and 'no worries'. Everything is taken care of from a good breakfast to ideas on things to do and see. Recommend this Lodge/Inn to anyone wanting the above features.

My husband and I stayed here this past weekend and were very pleased with our experience. The Inn is immaculate and the breakfasts wonderful. The innkeepers are very warm and helpful. We stayed in the Hemmingway Room and absolutely loved it. We will definitely be back and also recommend to friends!
