I was happy being on the lake and enjoying a weekend on bonfires on the beach. Thank you for making my trip enjoyable!

Love Sunrise Beach Motel!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Sunrise. Loved our view from the balcony it was just beautiful to have the window open at night and morning. Room and bathroom were nice and clean. Staff was nice as well. I will consider Sunrise Beach Motel in the future and will highly recommended to family and friends if they ever visit Mackinac Island.

Nice view

Like the upgraded room but looks like they weren't done. Excellent room to view the fireworks as well.

6/10 Good

Nice view

The updated room was nice, but there should be a door at the entrance where the sink is. The pool was ice cold and hot tub floor was flaking off. Also, the jets in the hot tub were very weak and there were no bubbles at all. There aren't enough parking spaces and it is very hard to get out as the parking is angled with no room to back out. The view was nice, but we spent too much on this hotel.

The room was adorable and had everything we needed. The lake view and lake access was wonderful! The staff were friendly and helpful. It was our favorite place we stayed on our trip!

Close to water. Property needed some work but was clean.

6/10 Good

The good is location and sitting on the covered porch with the sounds of the waves and the view of the bridge. Inside: under renovation? Reserved 2 weeks in advanced does not guarantee you will get the room you choose. They tried to put us on level 2 but my spouse could not do stairs. They said they would not charge me extra for the room they gave us. Bathroom door didn't close, stained bedspread. See photos of our room. Inside/Outside pool looked like it was closed due to pylons at the entrance and no lighting. Free parking, hard to maneuver around the rocks. Key card inoperable on day 2. They have a good location, hope they are able to fix the detailed stuff and politely accommodate reservations.
Good:  Nice view of the bridge and Mackinaw Island, fire pit available covered porch
Good:  New tongue and groove walls nice new drapes and flooring.
Bed was comfortable, furniture and lighting outdated and used.
Something simple and more modern would help improve the new renovation.  Though functional

2/10 Poor

Needs repair

We stayed in the little single ground level motel part. So the two level hotel rooms on the beach might be nicer. In our room, the internet didn’t work. The bed sheets were clean and was comfortable. However, the room had a musty smell. The bathroom was in need of repairs and had mildew in the shower and a very loose toilet seat.

Not Worth the Price

Not worth the price. Several little things could have been done to improve the place such as replacing the old mismatched plastic balcony chairs, sweeping the balcony, cleaning the glass doors. There was no hair dryer, iron, instructions for the WiFi and the unusual shower set up. We've stayed at many better rooms for half the price. The view was very nice and the pictures are just nice enough to make it appear better than it is.

Cute remodled rooms with water view

The room we stayed in was recently remodled. Very cute. Beds were really nice. Considerably comfortable for a hotel bed. Sheets were crisp and clean. The manager check on us every time he saw us to see how everything was going. The girls at the desk were very friendly and helpful. Will definetly stay again.

Disappointed in Mackinac City

Disappointed in the room we had. They had new wall covering and floor but the room was in poor repair. The bathroom window was broken and covered with duct tape to keep the glass in place. The patio was dirty and couldn’t be used due trash on floor. The sliding door handle was broken and the screen was torn. Mold in the AC unit. The outside was dark, with two lights in the parking lot being out and the solar lights on the wooden stairs were very dim causing me to miss a step and fall.
Bathroom window broken and dirty with dirt on window seal.
The handle on sliding glass door was broken, making it difficult to open door. The screen was torn on the top and bottom  which prevented the door to be open to enjoy the fresh air from the lake.
The two light fixtures over the bed had large accumulation of dead bugs.
Torn sliding glass screen door.

Loved the view but did not like how dusty the room was. They need to do better on cleaning the rooms.

Upon checking in the suggestion was made to upgrade which I chose to do. I am so happy I did. Got a freshly renovated room overlooking the water. The bed was so comfortable and the view of the bridge was phenomenal. If I ever went back to Mackinaw City. I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful view

View was amazing. We had a waterfront room and the view was beautiful. Our first room had a toilet that was not working and the staff was able to quickly move us to another room.

Just a heads-up about the room pics, okay? There are two kinds, and the cheap one's kinda rough. The other one's alright, though.

Very old room. Bathroom was falling apart with a lot of water damage. Main room had one electrical outlet running all extras in the room. TV, mini Frig, Spare heater, Lamp. One electrical outlet didn’t work.

Great place to stay on the beach.
sheri, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

We arrived and checked in to be notified we’d gotten an upgrade which was very pleasant, but added an extra hour to be able to check into our room from it getting cleaned as we arrived. There were minor safety concerns around the property such as electrical equipment just hanging on the wall… pool area towels were absolutely covered in bugs, even for what was protected by just a towel for partial coverage. We loved that fire pits were an option right outside the room!

Room was clean and newly remodeled. However, the sliding glass door handle was broken and the heavy drapes had holes in them you could see when they were closed at night. Everyone was friendly, but no amenities. No hair dryer, no iron etc…
