Railroad Bunkhouse in Mackinaw City, 3 Mi to Beach

Great location, great space for 3 bedrooms! Clean and easy, can’t ask for much more. Would stay again!

Great location,

This property was great for our needs. It is very close to the ferry dock to go to Mackinac Island. There are plenty of books and games. It was a good stay.

Affordable rustic charm bunkhouse charm, clean and neat away from crowds. Close to everything if you are going to Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island. We had ot of fun and enjoyed our stay.

It felt like home. It was clean and the neighborhood is quiet. We slept well.

Super close to everything. Washer and dryer helped a lot.Liked the enclosed porch.

Very clean, cozy and in a quiet location. Nice to have two bathrooms. Close to ferry locations.

The place is clean and had everything we needed. A good base to stay at and go to different venues around Mackinaw.

House was as described. Beds comfortable. Only issues to note is the gas grill was not operable or clean and the grass was not mowed by fire pit. Did appreciate that there was a good amount of wood available for fires and outdoor seating. There was a motel/apartments across the street with people outside late at night but they were quiet and was never an issue. Close walking distance to shops and the ferry. Would stay again if in the area.

We have friends out of state who have never been to beautiful Mackinac city or the island. The property was within 15 minutes walking to Shepler’s boat, had some great places to eat. We were able to do everything from the falls, the island and even the mystery spot and we were able to all stay in one area. I did try to contact the property manager 3 times without any communication back. We wanted to know about early check in which showed we could f we contacted, then we had no space in the trash can and wanted to know if it was acceptable me to put trash outside of the bin. The bedrooms are small so pictures are a little deceiving as we had our little girl with us who we have a blow up toddler bed for and we ended up just putting her in bed with us downstairs in a queen which made for a rough night. We would have slept in the upstairs king room but there is a lip from the bedrooms to the bathroom and we’re worried with her going downstairs at night. Overall it is a good location.

The bunkhouse was beautiful and clean. Downstairs bed was very comfortable. The queen bed upstairs felt like it was going to fall apart! The king bed was very comfortable also. I would definitely recommend it.

We enjoyed our 3-night stay. The home is less than a mile from where you catch the ferry to Mackiniac Island, which made it very convenient. There is also a small but well-stocked grocery store less than a mile away if you want to cook meals in-house. There are also many restaurants less than a mile away as the house seems to be on the edge of a touristy area of Mackinaw City. The house was in a quiet neighborhood although right across the street was a Motel, which concerned me. We were there in early June and the motel seemed to be closed. Not sure if it is permanently closed or if the hotel is seasonal housing for island workers. The inside was clean. The rooms were small but the beds were comfortable. The toilet in the downstairs bathroom tilts sideways quite a bit -- I noticed this in other comments as well -- but not unusable. The property description mentioned parking for 6 cars but I only saw space for two. There is no AC, which we did not need, and no dishwasher, just FYI. I would be willing to stay there again on another visit to the island.

House was clean, cute, beds were very comfortable, accommodated us 4 adults very well with adequate space. Extremely great location to walk to the many restaurants and shops in the city.

Very clean and extremely convenient to all attractions, restaurants and breweries. Walking distance to 75% of Main Street attractions and ferry. Nice clean kitchen and bathrooms. Very quiet at night. Steep staircase to second floor not for handicap on second floor but convenient bedroom and full bathroom on first floor. Very detailed instructions. Thank you for everything and very highly recommended.

nice

The Bunkhouse was clean, comfortable and full of character and charm. It served our needs well. zi would offer two suggestions to the Owner/Host. 1. The recessed landing at the top of the stairs is dangerous, especially at night. It should be the same level as the hall and flooring leading into the bathroom. 2. The main level bath and commode need floor work too. I felt that a seat belt was almost needed to use the commode, due to the slanting of the floor and toilet! We managed, but it should be addressed.

Comfortable, easy walking distance to local attractions
