Black Friday & Cyber Monday Sales

Hi guys,

Based on past experiences, what hotels are expected to provide Black Friday sales? We’re expected to go on a UP family trip next summer around June or July with 6 members including 2 children.

Your feedback would be much appreciated!

Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales for hotels on Mackinac Island and the Upper Peninsula are generally targeted toward early planners for the summer season. Many of the well-known hotels and inns on Mackinac Island release discounts during these periods, often including package deals or percentage-off promotions for stays in June or July.

Based on past trends, here’s what to expect:

  • Grand Hotel: Occasionally offers early booking discounts or package deals that include breakfast or bike rentals for Black Friday/Cyber Monday. These promotions usually sell out quickly due to the hotel’s popularity.
  • Mission Point Resort: Often has discounted rates for extended stays or family packages during these sales. Previous promotions included savings on rooms booked for summer dates.
  • Island House Hotel & Suites: Sometimes provides promotional rates during this time, particularly for larger families or group bookings.
  • Other Mackinac Island inns: Smaller boutique hotels may offer special weekend rates or limited-time promotions around Black Friday, especially if you subscribe to their newsletters.

Tips to make the most of these sales:

  • Sign up for newsletters from the hotels in advance; many Black Friday deals are emailed first to subscribers.
  • Book early as the promotions are often limited in availability and can sell out quickly, especially for popular summer weeks.
  • Check if the promotion includes extras like ferry tickets, bike rentals, or breakfast, which can add value for a family of six.
  • Be flexible with dates if possible; midweek stays may offer better rates even during peak summer months.

Overall, while exact discounts vary year to year, planning ahead and monitoring hotel websites or email lists is the best way to take advantage of Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals for a family summer trip to Mackinac Island.
