Great Lakes Inn

Do not book any properties owned by these people which is many. We rented a room with Great Lakes inn. Upon arrival we were told to go to hotel next door called the Thunderbird inn. So we go over there where they place us in a room completely full of mold on every single wall and the ceiling. We tell front desk where they say "of you dont like the mold on the wall then we can show you a different room." We allow them to show us a different room. Upon inspection it looks ok. We turn down the sheets and there are bodily fluids all over it. We tell them we want a refund and provide photos we are told there is no refunds. Ha!! What a joke!! Look up the Leigho family in Mackinaw city and you will see they were investigated by the AG office for unethical business practices. Well they took our money and we had to find a different hotel.

You know the saying, "you get what you pay for" and it holds true in this situation. It is off season, so I wasn't looking to spend much on a room to visit the casino in Mack City. The location is great if you are heading to the casino or downtown. The rooms are nothing to be desired, but appeared clean. The microwave was a dial microwave and the tv was smaller than my work monitor, but it was fine for what we needed it for. I actually slept really well in the room, even with the musty smell. I checked both beds for bed bugs and didnt see anything at all. The carpet needs torn out and vinyl or tile laid, but doubt that will happen. The pools are in VERY poor shape, dont even bring your suit. lol. Upon check in, I had to walk to the next door motel to check in as there was no one at the desk with a note on the door that said check in next door. weird.

Stay away ! This property has BUGS ! We went to the office for a full refund and wanted to stay at a different motel far far away from this place. They would not issue a refund, but simply offered us another nights stay at another motel they also managed. After inspecting the other room, we found it to be satisfactory but sadly at 1 AM. Someone tried to open our motel door. Thank the good Lord we had the security lock on.

It was not soothing

did not use

Left over food in fridge. Sink is dirty and bugs in it. Floor not vacuumed. Off putting smell in room. The room is nothing like the pictures showed. Had to go to hotel next door to check in. Probably one of the worst places I gave stayed.

The building is old. Our room was large. The beds were ok.. the t.v. and cable signal was bad. We had to unplug the server a few times to get signal back and the t.v. was fuzzy. The lamps were in bad shape and old. The carpet was horrible. I never went bare foot and I instructed my husband and daughter to do the same. It smelled of over powering cleaning product and urine so much that we had to keep our window open the entire time. The shower curtain was so long that a good 6 inches of it layed in the tub while showering and it would not stay shut because it was on a curved downward rod which made the corners slide down to the middle. The water pressure was painfully strong. My husband and daughter bought swim suits from a walmart to go swimming and that lasted about 10 mins because she was terrified of all the spiders floating down from the ceiling of the enclosed pool and landing in the water. My husband said there were AT LEAST 15 to 20 that he tried scooping out just in the corner of the pool he was in. Front desk was super nice, but we had to check into the property next door which made me feel a bit weary that we were on some abandoned second thought property. Housekeeping was very kind also. It was $144 plus $25 for my dog. So it did what it needed for the 2 nights we were visiting my mom, who is a local. I chose this hotel simply because a different one that had higher stars had bed bugs earlier in the season. This one, after close inspection, DID NOT.

Pool sucked hot tub had to go to starlight no breakfast no Wi-Fi staff was very friendly

woman at the counter was nice. when i got to the room and slept i woke up and there were bedbugs in the sheets. i pulled off the covers and tried to sleep in the middle of the bed. got 3 hours sleep maybe. room was nice but bedbugs everywhere

Clean descent room
