Ahh The Metivier Inn on Mackinac Island. We happened upon this great establishment by chance. As I mentioned before we stayed two days at The Inn at Bay Harbor for our honeymoon. Our original plans were to stay two days at Bay Harbor and then three days at our economy location. We ended up staying two days at our economy location and the last day at the Metivier Inn. After staying at The Bay Harbor Resort our old economy vacation with inconsistent water pressure in the shower wasn't looking so good for our honeymoon. While visiting the Island we came across the Metivier Inn. We went and checked it out and our thinking was maybe next time we could afford to stay at this cute little bed and breakfast. After inquiring and speaking with the inn keepers they made us a fabulous offer. $100 off the turret room. I literally cried in front of them lol They said we deserved to have a great honeymoon! It was the perfect little honeymoon room too. Even with the floral decorations my husband loved it! We then decided to forfeit our money on our last day at the Beach House in Mackinaw City and take up the great offer at the Metivier to round out our honeymoon. We had such a great stay there. The Innkeepers David and Blanca made you feel like you were at home. They were so friendly and really wanted you to enjoy your stay with them. They even gave out their years of wisdom in conversation regarding marriage after hearing we had just gotten married. They are great people and their happiness is contagious. They offer a great breakfast too. Matter of fact both the Metivier and The Inn at Bay Harbor have excellent breakfasts. My husband and I dream of them. The grounds are perfect and the rooms are exceptionally clean. The actual owner of the Inn is an artist and she did all the renovations of the home and decorating. We actually bought as a keepsake one of her paintings of the Metivier. There are so many little details in the house. It's a step back in time yet you have modern conveniences as well. We've stayed on the island once before but this time we got to see the island's night life. Being so close to town was a plus. The regular businesses at night turn into clubs and you can hear all the fun they have there. Remember in the movie Dirty Dancing how much the help had fun...well something similar goes on there.  I've included a few pictures taken of the inn during our stay. Also from the backyard you can see the Grand Hotel.  We would stay here again and you should too :)
Our room we stayed in at the Metivier Inn.
