Cedar Hill Lodge

8/10 Good
"Great Location, had all kinds of amenities if you could walk to it outside. Fire pit...We had to go buy fire starters, pool was in another building. For St. Ignace, overall, it is a fair deal. The Casino, has very low odds of winning, this is my experience of being there twice. St. Ignace is a pretty interesting small town, Mackinaw Island is expensive, covered in crowds, Bicycles and horse carts, but the businesses on this island have to make their income in less than 7 months. nightlife is Bars at $12-20 a drink, Dinners $30-$50+ea. a sub-sandwich is $23 and rents on the island WOW!"

Bridge Vista Beach - Hotel & Convention Center

Bridge Vista Beach - Hotel & Convention Center

8/10 Good
"I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. When I checked in, the room is clean and fairly spacious. The view is at the side of the building but I can still see the bridge and the lake (happily surprised). It has everything I needed in the room. The hotel has a direct access to the beach which was great. The reason that I gave 4/5 stars for cleanliness is because the room is quite humid (so towels stayed wet throughout the stay). The hotel management may also want to consider doing some deep cleaning of the carpet and tiles. The carpet felt dirty and stained. The cleanliness was acceptable for daily cleaning but i think the room is overdue for deep clean. TV was on a dresser and I wish the tv channel is more responsive. Wifi is useable for daily work but don’t expect anything heavy."
