The Beach House is a family owned and operated resort run with pride and integrity. We are the last stand of cottages on the water in Mackinaw City. We are 1 mile east of downtown. There are sidewalks and a bike trail to get to town.
Seven cottages sit directly on the beachfront the others back up in a U shape from the beach. Everyone staying at the Beach House has access to our private beach. The Beach House is pet friendly (small pet fee) with 2 animals maximum. All hotel rooms in Michigan are non smoking. Smoking is permitted outdoors.

Great experience overall. Cute little place, nice staff. Heat in room didn't really seem to work and it got cold over night.These comments are from a verified stay93 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|Enjoyed our accommodations for our stay which included bringing our pet. Very clean and such beautiful views of the beach and water. We were welcomed to use the amenities. Would have liked to have used the fire pit, but it was filled with debris the first night. The second night is was clean and another guest had started a nice fire. We wish the reservation process had included the fees for bringing a pet. It was not much but I would have appreciated the heads up before we arrived at the cottages.These comments are from a verified stay79 people found this helpful.

Did you find this helpful?|I have been going to the Beach House since the eighties. I like the individual cabins and their arrangement on the property. It makes for both privacy and socializing with other guests. The cabins are clean and comfortable. The Beach House is BY FAR much better than the damn box hotels. I don't know of any other cabin places in the area, and I will definitely plan to stay at the Beach House in the future.These comments are from a verified stay87 people found this helpful.

Great stay!These comments are from a verified stay86 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|The Beach House was exactly what I was looking for while on vacation; my own little spot on the beach. It's too bad there aren't more in the area. Martin was a wonderful host. He made sure I had everything I needed and provided me with suggestions. He even called for shuttle service with Shepler's for my trip to the island. Sheplers is top notch! How wonderful to be picked up and dropped off, right from my hotel. They are so friendly and helpful. The Island Book Store was wonderful. I met a very interesting Michigan author. Kilwins was excellent. I had to stop one more time before I departed. I wish I could have stayed longer! I would love to stay at The Beach House in the future. It's an excellent place to write. The history is my favorite. I wrote about my visit in my weekly column, in the Norton Lakeshore Examiner.

Shame on you.These comments are from a verified stay108 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|This was our third stay at Beach House. It is your quintessential peaceful rustic little cottage on the beach. We love the views, including the bridge, the log chairs and swings, and the location. It is definitely a great place for family or to get away from it all and clear your mind.These comments are from a verified stay90 people found this helpful.

We would most definitely recommend this property to our friends.These comments are from a verified stay84 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|This is our idea of a place to stay when you go up north. The cabins are older but very well kept clean and neat. We had a campfire on the beach in the evening with two other couples staying there had a wonderful time. From the beach you can see the bridge and Mackinac Island it's just beautiful!These comments are from a verified stay114 people found this helpful.
