Appreciate the independent and attentive owners in a town where most every other hotel/motel is owned by one company and standards are Lowe for guests and employees!
Wonderful experience. Only stayed one night but got an upgrade, charming owners helped with overnight parking for trip to the island, and dining recommendations. Unexpected hospitality! Room was nice too.
I've stayed at The Rainbow Inn many times over the years and it never disappoints! It is an exceptional value and the the Rainbow is locally owned with the owners living on the property. They are helpful and friendly.
The rooms are kind of basic but very clean and comfortable. I particularly enjoyed the outdoor hot tub after a day of walking and biking around Mackinac Island.
Loved the indoor pool and hot tub. Overall the room was nice although the drapes didn't fully close (slight gap in the middle) and the shower was small. But a great place to stay for a one night stay.
Owners were super nice and recommended Darrow’s Restaurant, which was an excellent choice. Bed was very comfortable being slightly firm. Shower head water pressure was great. It was very quiet and peaceful. Second time I have stayed here and I will be back.
My two favorite aspects about this motel were that it is still privately-owned while others in the area are not; and it is not a two-story structure. Unfortunately, some of our neighbors were loud which you can’t always combat. I loved the coupons the office provided at check-in. We used many of them! The motel is about three blocks from most attractions. All in all, a nice stay in Mackinaw City.
