We found ourselves on an impromptu trip to Mackinac Island and booked what they told us was the last room available at the Lilac Tree. We were on the top floor so we had a fantastic view of the harbor and the street. Although the area was busy with kids on school trips (right before Memorial Day) the hotel itself... More

Being in the middle of everything is a great way for 3 ladies to experience the town. We had a room with 2 queen beds in one room and a sitting area in the front with sliders to a balcony and a view of the harbor. We could watch the boats come and go along with the horse carriages picking... More

Have stayed many places on the Island and I was so impressed by the Lilac Tree. The rooms are bright and cheerful. Super friendly staff (Bart at the front desk was helpful). The balcony rooms are perfect for having a drink or coffee and watching the hustle & bustle below. My two Island faves are this and the Iroquois Hotel.... More

This was our 1st time to Mackinac Island and the Lilac Tree is right in the heart of the island. The room was very spacious and the decor was what I would call cottage chic. We had a king room with a balcony facing the street. Each morning we got up we had our coffee on the balcony and watched... More

My husband and I stayed at the Lilac Tree for one evening during our "Pure Michigan Honeymoon" a few weeks ago. Although the weather was not favorable, we found a welcome retreat in our beautiful suite. The room was very large and comfortable. We loved the large jet tub in the bathroom and enjoyed it more than once while we... More

I recently stayed 3 nights at the Lilac Tree Suites in room 214(?); double beds with a sitting room and balcony facing the street. Everything was spotless and comfortable. The decor is decidedly feminine & charming. The suprise knock at the door that first evening with staff offering milk & cookies (a first for this traveler) & a chocolate "for... More

This is one of the best places to stay on Mackinac Island. The suites are very comfortable. The staff is very friendly & helpful. A gentleman by the name of Bart went above & beyond to make my stay an excellent experience. The Chippewa Hotel is a partner to this Hotel and they have an excellent restaurant with fabulous food...

Get a room on the street side, pay extra it is worth it! We had a master suite which included the larger balcony. A great sitting room with television. Double sinks. Shower and SPA tub (which easily could fit 2 people with room to spare) in a seperate room. 2 beds in another room with a television as well. Fridge... More

We stayed here and it was in a great location. The only thing beyond being very expensive was the fact the room needed MAJOR updating. The table in our sitting room had a broken leg, the outlet in the bathroom did not work. They sent a very nice repair man to replace it for us. The wallpaper was peeling in... More
