Top Skull Cave Hotel Reviews

Harbour View Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely beautiful place to stay! An easy walk from the ferry, great breakfast, beautiful views, and inexpensive bicycle rentals. We loved it."

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham St. Ignace Lakefront

10/10 Excellent

"The property is a bit shabby. Peeling paint, dripping faucets. Good location."

Cedar Hill Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great Lodge and very nicely priced. Staff was friendly and premises were clean. Rooms were modestly sized, very clean and well taken care of. Beds were very comfortable, as was the rest of the room. In my opinion, much better priced and comfortable than many of the hotels on the Mackinac City side. Will stay again."

Lake View Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Super clean room, wonderfully relaxing shower and comfortable beds (even the pillows, which is hard to find in a hotel). The staff was super friendly and helpful and amenities were basic but you definitely had what you needed. Central location to activities, food and shopping. Would definitely stay here again!"

Island House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was situated within walking distance to the downtown area which was really convenient. We checked in without any problems and staff was very accommodating. The decor in general is lovely, colorful and inviting. My husband used the hot tub and it was very relaxing. Our meals in the restaurant were high quality. We enjoyed breakfast and dinner. This would definitely be where we would return to stay again."

Hamilton Inn Select Beachfront Mackinaw City
