Mackinac Island Cross Country Skiing
The Mackinac Island Ski club grooms trails on the east and north side of the Island in Mackinac Island State Park.
The cross country ski trails wind through the pristine woods of Mackinac Island State Park and allow the winter visitor to see all of the natural and historical landmarks of the island.
You can follow the ski trails to the interior of the island and take in the vistas from the highest point on the island at Fort Holmes. Or ski through the woods to Arch Rock and enjoy the view of Lake Huron from the bluffs on the eastern side of the island.

It is the longest suspension bridge in the Western Hemisphere and the seventh-longest in the world by total suspended length, with a main span of about 5 miles. 2) Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore -

Thinking about that time when I went to trivia night with a bunch of know-it-alls and the question was, “What was the US’s second national park, which is no longer a national park?”
I told my team the answer was Mackinac Island in Michigan.
They didn’t believe me, but they didn’t have a better answer, so they went with mine.
Guess what? I. Was. Right.
How did I know that? Researching for this series!

Harborview Hotel~ Mackinac Island… Full Speed now! In the “off season” we can get special permits to use big trucks and equipment for larger jobs… and this one is a VERY large scale overhaul. When she is complete, it will feature the most beautiful tiered gardens, fountains, all new lighting, and will be among the most stunning gardens on the island! First, we must “build” her bones… and this one will take 12 semis full of stone and brick to get there!! Stay tuned ~

There’s a place in Michigan where cars were banned over a century ago, and never came back. 🚗🐎
Welcome to Mackinac Island, a 3.8-square-kilometer time capsule where a single backfiring car in 1898 led to a permanent ban on motor vehicles. Today, horses outnumber people, FedEx arrives by horse-drawn dray, and the only state highway on the island is one you can’t drive on.
Come summer, more than a million visitors ferry in to trade engines for hoofbeats, exploring by bike, buggy, or horseback, and ending their days watching the sunset from the Grand Hotel’s Cupola Bar.
A place where slowing down isn’t an inconvenience, it’s the entire point.

Chasing fall color in Michigan.

Known for its horse-drawn carriages, Victorian architecture, and world-famous fudge shops, Mackinac Island feels like stepping into another era — where life moves at a gentler pace and every corner is picture-perfect.
At the heart of it all is the Grand Hotel, a true American icon overlooking the sparkling blue waters of Lake Huron. From its famous 660-foot porch to its elegant rooms and evening traditions, every moment here feels special. Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway, a family trip, or a peaceful retreat surrounded by history and natural beauty, Mackinac Island is a must-visit Michigan treasure.
Ready to plan your Mackinac Island escape? I can help you find the perfect stay and ferry package for an unforgettable trip! 💙

We received a very large order for holiday ornaments this year and we have been working very hard on it! If you have been in the studio over the past month you may have seen us pressing, sanding, glazing or stringing 1500 Mackinac Bridge ornaments. While now it is too late in the season for an order like this, we are always happy to help with large scale gifts! In this case our customer ordered custom ribbon, something else that we can also do.
