Our guests are enthusiastic in their praise of Metivier Inn! The following is a sampling of just a few of the comments we have received most recently:

The rooms are cozy and beautiful, the breakfasts are simple but creative, yummy (I think my husband would sell his soul for the cheese danish recipe) and filling, and the gardens are AMAZING! I love that it's one block off of main street - still close to all the touristy shops, but on a much quieter street. This is our second stay here and it will NOT be our last! If you've never been to Mackinac Island overnight, I would highly recommend trying it and staying here. The evenings after the last ferry leaves and the mornings before the first ferry arrives are like slices of heaven.

The Metivier Inn is beautiful, clean, comfortable and a very enjoyable place to stay. The staff is so friendly and will do anything to help improve your stay. The location is the best. Very quiet but a short walk from the ferry dock and you can walk to all the restaurants on the main street. We stayed 2 nights abd did not want to leave. If you want to stay at a B&B on the Island, the Metivier Inn is the best choice.

My husband and I celebrated our 5th anniversary at the Metivier. From Lucas to Bob to George and Blanca it was a great stay! The room and Inn is SO clean! We will never stay anywhere else but the Metivier. Breakfast was outstanding and very filling. We felt at home and comfortable. Leave your cell phones in the room and enjoy every minute!

My husband & I highly recommend Metivier Inn. This was our fourth trip to Mackinac Island. We have stayed at the Grand Hotel & Iroquois Hotel, both with their own uniqueness. However, now after my stay at Metivier, we have found a place to return to year after year. I felt at home here & spoiled by the Inn keepers David & Blanca.

Our room was the Grand View, with our own private patio & whirlpool. I truly felt like I was in paradise. Waking up in the morning to a soft rain & seeing the beautiful hydrangeas out my window with the sound of horse hoofs clip-clopping in the distance. It is a slower pace & that's why we come here & stay for days. The breakfast was over the top. David & Blanca served hot oatmeal with homemade granola, yogurt, hot egg dish, sausage, fresh fruit bowl, pastry with huge slices of apple in it ( I can still taste it, so good ), gourmet breads, coffees & teas. Oh, & cereals for the kids.

My husband & I love to bike, usually until dark & this breakfast kept us going! This Inn is perfect – the flowers – the service – the breakfast – the porch for people watching – the room & private patio. Please don't change a thing.

Our next trip will be with all the kids & we will be only staying at Metivier Inn. Thank you so much for a perfect vacation get away.

I loved my stay at the Metivier Inn! The employees are very friendly and accomodating, the rooms are very clean and the beds are comfortable. The inn has a wonderful porch that wraps around the building and beautiful flower beds. It's very close to everything. I would strongly recommend the Metivier to anyone interested in visiting the island.

As the tour guides pass the inn we hear them say, "this is the best inn on the island." We whole-heartedly agree. Each time we stay at the Metivier Inn we want to stay longer next time. The ambiance of the inn is perfect with several porches and areas to relax in solitude, or observe the fabulous gardens. The gardens are exquisitely planned, groomed, and the object of several painters on the island. The bedrooms are typical hotel room size with everything you need, up-to-date televisions, and most importantly, VERY comfortable beds. Finally, the service is friendly, prompt and accommodating. With the ideal location, I recommend this inn to all for a great vacation.

Members of the Metivier family visited the Inn:

My Grandfather – Charles Lambert Metivier was born in this house 11/28/1888.  I stayed here as a child when the house was owned by my Great Aunt Mary.  Then it was a small house with a big porch.  You have done a wonderful job here!   Joanne Seewald Camille and Frank Camille

I am the great granddaughter of Louis Metivier, the man who built the original home.  I always enjoyed coming here as a child and sitting on the porch with my Grandmother Myrtle.  Her husband Charles Metivier was born in this house in 1888.  This is my 3rd visit to the Metivier Inn.  I definitely will be back.  I thank you for doing such a lovely job restoring this home.  Laura Sevonty, Seattle, WA
