Discover Cottages & Homes on Mackinac Island
It was in the late 1800s that cottages and homes started dotting the bluffs above the water, turning Mackinac Island into the popular summer destination that it still is today. From quaint cottages right near town to 5,000-square-foot homes on acre-plus lots, these historic places to stay make you feel like a Victorian-era vacationer in your own private paradise. You can enjoy all the activity of a summer day on Mackinac Island and then retire to your own home away from home, whether it’s a secluded cottage in the woods or a historic house high above the Straits of Mackinac.

Summer is here and there are very few things we can do in the current situation. Cycling around the Mackinac island was an awesome way to spend the weekend! This beautiful island in Northern Michigan is rich with historic landmarks, nature trails and a cycling route along its entire deep blue and turquoise coast! Would ya’ll love to cycle around and breathe in the fresh air too? Let us know in the comments!!

Plein air piece of Mackinac Island not painted today!😆 “Colors After a Little Rain.” 12x8” Sometimes inclement weather can bring out beauty... I remember waiting for a storm to pass and this garden in front of The Island House struck me in contrast with dark blue sky. Time to set up the easel!

Our shores recently were graced with blocks of blue ice!
Blue ice forms when snow on top of the ice is compressed and squeezes out all of the air bubbles increasing its density. This process allows the ice to absorb colors, resulting in vibrant chunks of blue ice. When the light hits the ice, especially on a bright Michigan winter day, the sight is chillingly beautiful.
Blue ice may be a rare find but it’s common to see here in the Straits of Mackinac. Let’s see how long the blue ice will stick around! #mymackinac #lakehuron
