This summer will be our 6th year staying at the Beachcomber. We love it. Comfy room, best staff/owners ever and it's dog friendly. We recommend this motel to all our friends and family when going up to Mac City. Can't wait to stay there again. Beach is beautiful with a nice view of the Mac Bridge. It's close to downtown... More

We checked out Beachcomber based on positive reviews here and am glad we did. The motel was nice and clean, the people at the desk very nice. We have come to Mackinaw a number of times and stayed in different motels or camped, but I'm pretty sure we'll come back to this one. The price was very reasonable and the... More

Well located, clean and well kept. More relaxing than one of the big commercial places. Great value for your money! Nice beach with bonfire pits and white sand. Close to town and the Island ferries. Very helpful staff. This was my first stay here, but I will stay there again!

Clean, pleasant and very helpful staff, light breakfast and great coffee! Walking distance to downtown, great bonfire pit right on the beach with views of the Mackinaw Bridge and Mackinaw... More

VERY clean and well kept property. Great value too. Enjoyed the break from super-commercialized hotels. We loved the view of lake with a deck on our room. Our 11 year old daughter could play by the water while we suervised from our deck. Beach is really nice. Room very clean with easy access to tourist shopping and eating. A couple... More

The cottage was so warm and cozy and had everything we needed for our stay. The staff was awesome and very helpful and accomodating to... More

This is our third stay at the Beachcomber. We volunteer at the Fort in Mackinaw City and aren't always able to get free housing, so we go here instead. It is older, small, but right on the beach. The rooms are a little on the small side, but the queen rooms are bigger than the doubles. We don't spend a... More
