Cloghaun Bed & Breakfast

We just spent four wonderful nights at the Cloghaun and could not have been more pleased. Our rooms were spotless, spacious, and thoughtfully furnished with beautiful period pieces. The bedding was soft and comfortable, ensuring restful nights. Each morning we were greeted by cheerful and attentive hostesses who served delicious breakfasts—always with plentiful proteins, fresh fruit, and a lightly sweet baked good. The coffee was excellent, and I especially enjoyed sipping it from a china cup while looking out at some of the prettiest gardens on the island. We often overheard other tourists admiring the Cloghaun’s gardens as “the best,” and we couldn’t agree more.||We loved relaxing on the front porch and meeting fellow guests, who were all a joy to get to know. Even after seeing other accommodations available on the island, our family would choose the Cloghaun again without hesitation. Our daughter was delighted by the extra bonus of playing the antique piano, and I loved exploring the many photos and keepsakes that tell the home’s story and the lives of those who lived there. It was especially meaningful to see how the house has been lovingly preserved through five generations of the same family, with photos showing its changes over time.||The thoughtful touches made our stay feel extra special—there was always cold water, and often teas and homemade baked goods available in the afternoons. From beginning to end, our time at the Cloghaun was filled with beauty, comfort, and a sense of history. A truly memorable stay!

Cloghaun is a top notch bed and breakfast. We loved our stay here. Our room was perfect. We enjoyed sitting on our private balcony everyday and watching the horses go by. CLoghaun is convenient to everything and only a block away from the ferry terminal. Special thanks to Clover and Maureen. These ladies are the best and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is the best it can be. My husband had health issues and had to be transferred to the mainland to go to the hospital in the middle of the night. Clover went out of her way to text me and check that were ok. Fortunately, we were able to return and finish our vacation. I looked at many different places to stay while in Mackinac and honestly never saw anywhere better than Cloghaun. We would highly recommend this B&B. In fact I am already planning a girls trip for next summer, and we will definitely be staying at Cloghaun.

Our stay at Cloghaun Bed and Breakfast was very memorable and exceeded our expectations! The location is perfect and is just a short walk from the ferry dock. Our room had a small deck overlooking the street and a private bath. Very nice to have the deck to watch all of the horse and bike traffic. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. All of our breakfasts were very good and had a nice variety. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful. I highly recommend Cloghaun B and B and we would definitely stay there again on any return trip!!

A perfect stay in a beautiful location. One street over from the busy, loud main drag. Very convenient location for ferry services, restaurants, and local shops. The whole home is full of beautiful antiques and historical photos. We watched many tourists Ooo and Aww at the magical flowers and landscaping in front of the home. The Bridget suite has an amazing view from your private balcony, perfect for people watching and late night talks when the town quiets. The room also had a private bath and shower, as well as a very comfortable bed with a pretty canopy. Breakfast was served each morning with several cold cereal options, fruit, warm dishes, homemade breads, and hot coffee. It was delicious each morning of our 5 night stay. Homemade cookies and tea are served in the afternoon. All of the staff are friendly and really go the extra mile to make your stay perfect. Housekeeping changed linens and refreshed the room everyday. We really enjoyed relaxing in the room or balcony between eating, hiking, biking, fudging, and sipping all the island had to offer. Thank you, Cloghaun for sharing your home and memories with us.

We stayed four nights at the Cloghaun Bed and Breakfast and had a wonderful time. The B&B is charming and elegantly decorated, our room was very comfortable and clean. It’s in a quiet location, but centrally located and a short walk from all the shops, restaurants and waterfront. The B&B’s host was very friendly and focused on making sure her quests were enjoying their stay. She prepared a different homemade breakfast every morning, consisting of hot food, fresh fruit and breads, the food was excellent. If you are planning to stay on the island I would highly recommend you stay at the Cloghaun Bed and Breakfast.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Cloghaun Inn for our anniversary this past weekend. It was a great location, just up the hill from the Sheplers ferry dock so it was super easy rolling our small suitcases from the ferry station to our B&B. The food was great, staff was so accommodating especially when we were going to get in past their innkeeper hours. Carleen waited for us and didn’t give us any trouble about it. We got there right at 6pm, hoping we didn’t disrupt her evening. She was so helpful! On our last day, we were able to keep our bags in the living room, after we checked out, so we could do a couple more things before we left the island. Loved our first B&B experience!

The Cloghaun Bed & Breakfast is charming in a great central location with a wonderful view. The gardens are spectacular. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were delicious. Our second floor room with a balcony faces the front of the house which allowed us to relax in the late afternoon while watching all of the activity on Market Street The restaurant recommendations were spot on. We enjoyed a dinner at the Carriage House at the Hotel Iroqouis which is within walking distance of the Cloghaun. We also experienced dinner at the Woods Restaurant which is operated by the Grand Hotel where we had after dinner cocktails at the Cupola. When you go to the Woods Restaurant by carriage, you will discover the reason for its name. |There's so much to do and see on Mackinac Island. An endless list of sightseeing, nature, history, biking, shopping . . .|If Mackinac Island is on your "bucket" list go as soon as you can. If the Island is not|on your list, it should be.

My husband and I visited Mackinac Island for a long weekend getaway. We chose Cloghaun B and B and were very happy with our choice. The house was beautiful and very clean. The breakfasts were outstanding. The location was just perfect in relation to the ferry and most of the restaurants and sights. The staff at Cloghaun were the best.

It was a wonderful coincidence when my BFF and I shared with each other the idea of celebrating our birthdays in Mackinac Island. I've been to Mackinac twice before, the most recent July 2023. I felt familiar and comfortable making our arrangements. I'm so glad I chose Cloghaun B&B. The location put us conveniently close to the places we wanted to experience (Grand Hotel, Jack's Livery, the Fort, restaurants, etc). We had a lovely room (Anna). Each morning the breakfast was delicious and interesting. Thank you to Clover and Carlene (spelling?) for being gracious and welcoming. If I'm lucky enough to return, I would stay no where else.

Beware!!!! I had to file a fraud report on this B&B because they charged my card 3 times and I did not stay here! Im shocked that they would charge my card 1 month after. Thieves!!!

Beautiful and friendly atmosphere! The house is right up the street from downtown and the ferry. The staff was friendly and the property was clean. The front has a decent sized deck surrounded by beautiful flowers, with chairs to relax both on the lawn and the deck. We enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend it when staying on Mackinac island!

Very unprofessional and rude. Did not help with our reservations. Made the overall experience unwelcoming. If you plan to reserve with your family, I would strongly advise to look elsewhere.

Just stayed two nights at this lovely B&B! We felt very welcome throughout our stay. The inn keeper made sure our stay was comfortable and gave us a tour upon arrival. We stayed in one of the two rooms that doesn't have a private bath and you share a bathroom down the hall. It was a little awkward for us so we probably would choose a room with a private bath next time or stay somewhere where we could have a private bath. When I booked the reservation this was the only room they had available so we tried it! They offer morning coffee starting at 7:30am and breakfast at 8 am. They also offer afternoon tea from 3-5 pm. One day they served local fudge it was so good! The porch is so great to sit on in the morning or evening!!! Also, it is in a great location near the ferry docks and shops! The innkeeper also made our taxi reservations for us which was so helpful. Overall, a very lovely stay!

Cloghaun offers a Historic and relaxing stay. The location on Market st is fantastic. While sitting in the porch you get to see the traffic flow. The rooms are so unique- and filled with gorgeous antiques. Breakfast was homemade every morning and truthfully- I'm ruined now because my homemade ones are not as good . I love how you feel at home with snacks and drinks always available. Suzy was so great from when you check in till when you leave. Highly recommend staying here for the charm is an added bonus to Mackinac.

Wow, what more can I say. Our stay was wonderful, and words cannot do it justice. We honeymooned here 10/22-10/23, and we wish we could have stayed longer. Our trip was spectacular, and the shining highlight was the Cloghaun! We stayed in room 10, which had a large, beautiful, antique tub and bed along with period art and furniture. The mattress was comfortable, pillows plush, towels were overstocked in abundance, and our room was immaculately clean. We were tickled pink by the glycerin soap provided which smelled like gardenias (to me, very light floral) and the lovely quilt on our bed. The staff was exceptional. We had many wonderful conversations and felt at home. Being that it was the off season, we were one of the few couples there, and we were treated like VIP guests. They had great recommendations for food, and were always happy to help with a smile. We also booked a "special deal" where due to us staying on non-peak times in the off season we received an excellent rate. This included a hot breakfast with delicious strata and coffee cake, and a tea time with their 7 layer bars and a selection of teas that you could have in their lovely china. Those 7 layer bars. Oh my goodness. My husband and I could have eaten them out of house and home! I could not recommend this place more to anyone. We will definitely stay again!

This was a wonderful place to stay on Mackinac Island. The staff was warm and welcoming. We stayed in room #4 because it has 2 full size beds which were very comfortable and a private bathroom with walk in shower. We enjoyed the delicious breakfasts and afternoon tea beverages and snacks. The front porch chairs were very relaxing. The location was perfect, only a block from the ferry docks and we could walk to restaurants and the Grand Hotel. I highly recommend this B&B!

We can not praise this establishment enough! Super clean, exceptionally friendly/personable staff, beautifully built/decorated, and the location could not be beat. It is just off the main stretch, but still within a two minute walk from the ferry docks. Unbelievable and unbeatable. We stayed on a Thursday evening in the off season (early October) and the price could not be beat. We paid less for this B&B than we did for a dive motel in Sault Ste Marie the next evening. We had a "shared bathroom" but that meant only shared with one other room. Turned out that room wasn't even booked so we had it to ourselves. We will be back for sure. We're still shocked at how excellent Cloghaun B&B is.

Beautiful little bed and breakfast in a great location. Recommend a room with a balcony where you can sit, relax, and listen to horses and bikes go by.

A great little place just one block up from all the restaurants, bars, and shops on Main Street. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The property was beautiful and has a great front balcony overlooking the street filled with horse drawn carriages. The afternoon snacks and breakfast was delicious and there was plenty to go around, even for my picky 4 year old niece.

Awesome place. Best b&b on the island. Service was great, very cozy and clean. I plan on staying here every time I come to the island.
