The woman on the phone when we made the reservation was very nice and I had hoped that she would be at the desk when we checked in. The man who did check us in didn't seem to be in a very good mood. He just told us the room number and how to get to the room. No details... More

Thank you for writing this review. I think your comments were fair and accurate. Obviously I am disappointed that the clerk who checked you in was not on top of his game but without your feedback I would be in the dark about this incident. This is not the attitude I want my staff to convey. Thank you for staying... More

Stayed in a 2 room suite. Very nice. Nice breakfast room and selection of food and beverage. Very nice view of the lake from all rooms. Will... More

Thank you so much for the kind words. Now that you've stayed twice during the off season I hope you can visit in the summer. There is a lot to do. St. Ignace has family friendly activities planned 7 days a week with fireworks every Saturday during July and August. More

We arrived in St. Ignace at 1am and were really tired from our trip. Not only did they have a room for us at a great rate but Todd the front desk clerk was excellent about everything else! He accommodated a lot of our needs even putting us in a rm near the pool and hot tub which we loved!... More

Thank you for the compliment. Todd is an asset to our hotel. We are lucky to have him, but not to slight anyone else working the front desk I believe my entire crew is outstanding. They all strive to provide excellent customer service. I appreciate tour business and hope to see you again soon. More

Decent hotel, very large room, but breakfast disappointing, little choice and not presented well. Location on far end of town, so not ideal for simple overnight stay. pool was out of commission.Hot water wasn't available for hot tea.

I write this because I am troubled by less than complimentary reviews I have seen. We stayed at the Bavarian Haus in mid-Sept during the tractor bridge crossing and show. The hotel and room was clean as a whistle and in fact I felt the room was larger than most without being a suite. Nice patio with view out to... More

It's obvious the local owners have worked very hard to upgrade and maintain this property which is wonderfully located on the shore of Lake Huron. It's a perfect spot to stay when visiting Mackinaw Island. The ferry leaves from the dock just down the street. The rooms are spacious and immaculate. The front desk staff was very helpful. The pools... More

From reservations made over the phone (very helpful with specials and discounts) to staff encountered during stay was impressed with friendly, helpful service. Room decor was dated but room was very clean and comfortable and the view more than made up for decor. Awesome view of water, beautiful sunrises, and only had to step of deck (first floor whirlpool room)... More

Arrived on 8/17/12. Three night stay. Keep in mind, this is an older hotel with cosmetic flaws. That said, the room was spacious, extremely clean, and very comfortable. Lots of pillows, soft towels, and a very comfortable bed. Plenty of storage space and a mini fridge. No microwave. Wonderful shower, plenty of water pressure. Free wi-fi. Balcony with chairs and...
