Great motel!
This was a perfect location with great views of lake and bridge. Very clean and beds were very comfortable. Bathroom was all updated. If I had one recommendation, it would be to add a toilet paper holder. Soap dish in shower and an extra towel rod or two. All in all, great motel and I’d stay again!

Always a treat!
This was our second stay at the Rivera, and as expected a great time. Rooms are very clean and comfortable, with spectacular views of both the beautiful Mackinaw bridge in the front window and the lovely park beachfront at the back window! This is definitely our home away from home in Mackinaw city ❤️
