Top Headlands International Dark Sky Park Hotel Reviews

Baymont by Wyndham Mackinaw City

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean , bathroom was nice and clean! Staff was very nice and the breakfast was well maintained"

Days Inn by Wyndham Mackinaw City/Bridgeview Area

8/10 Good

"Room was ok. It is an older hotel but overall was clean."

Super 8 by Wyndham Bridgeview of Mackinaw City

8/10 Good

"Could use a bit of updating but generally clean and well-maintained. The location, just across the street from a lighthouse and marvelous view of the Mackinac Bridge, was superb -- I would recommend booking the lakeside rooms that had patios for viewing. Instead of offering breakfast (beyond coffee and granola bars), we were given BOGO coupons for nearby breakfast restaurants, but the online reviews for these noted that the BOGO choices were limited, overpriced, and not very good -- drive around the corner and go to Audie's Restaurant instead."
