Getting Here
Part of Mackinac Island’s undeniable charm is that it is directly accessible only by ferry or private or charter flight. Ferries to the island depart from Mackinaw City in Michigan’s lower peninsula and St. Ignace in the upper peninsula, docking either directly next to the hotel or within a block or two. Private and charter flights arrive at nearby Mackinac Island Airport. From there, enjoy a two-mile trip by horse-drawn taxi to the hotel.
Arrive by Ferry Getting Here
We recommend passage to Mackinac Island by ferry provided by Shepler’s with service from Mackinaw City and St. Ignace. For your convenience, when traveling from Mackinaw City, Shepler’s dock is one block from the hotel.
Many guests enjoy the drive across the Mighty Mackinac Bridge to the slower-paced St. Ignace ferry docks.
Please be sure to check the ferry websites for a current schedule of departures for your dates of travel.
Upon arrival on Mackinac Island by ferry the Hotel Iroquois dock porters will be waiting for you at the head of the dock. Please identify your luggage for them before coming to the Hotel Iroquois to check-in. Baggage storage is available for early arrivals and late departures. Our check in time is 4pm and check out is 11am.
