We now always stay at the Bear Cove Inn when in St. Ignace. The rooms are all unique and fun, and we recommend this marvelous b & b for everyone looking for a great experience. The only time we go to a casino is with our free tokens, and usually end up with a couple of dollars in out pockets!

I have been a returning guest at the Bear Cove for four years now. Initially we stayed in the tree fort room, which was even cooler than the pictures lead me to believe, also have stayed in the King room, Las Vegas room, and the Up North Room. Everytime our stay at the Bear Cove has been memorable, the rooms... More

Bear Cove Inn is ideally located for travel between peninsulas. We booked solely because the rooms looked too ridiculous to be true, and we weren't disappointed. Really enjoyed the kitschy decor, and while breakfast isn't much to write home about, the room is comfortable, clean, and worth photographing.

We stayed at Bear Cove Inn on our girl's trip to Mackinac Island and very much enjoyed our stay. We stayed in the Bear Room and it was so cute and cozy. The beds were very comfortable. If you really want to support the locals, this is the place to stay! The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. They have... More

The themed rooms are really cute, and this place is run by a very nice local family who really seems to care about their business and the community. However, our room smelled musty. We had to sleep with the windows wide open for my husband to not gag all night long. Breakfast in the morning was just donuts, bread for... More

Not much I can add to the previous reviews except a hearty DITTO! Bob and Elaine were fantastic. After a day, my wife and I felt we knew them forever. Great place, great owners, cannot recommend highly enough.

We've stayed at the Bear Cove twice and we like the themed rooms. The owners are both friendly and they have given good recommendations for restaurants and other things in the area. The rooms are quiet, clean, and comfortable. I recommend the Tree Fort Room.

I just fell in love with this little motel. The hosts were wonderful and helpful. It was easily accessable. The forest themed rooms are great. We stayed in the eagle room and my biys fell in love with it. I can't wait to go back next week.
