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.

Have you ever walked a labyrinth? It’s world labyrinth day! I loved the one below the Grand Hotel so much -I put it in every one of my stories. Unfortunately, a few years ago when they remodeled the pool area -it was lost in time-but it lives on through story! #WorldLabyrinthDay #labyrinth #beingethelauthor #GrandHotelMichigan #mackinacisland
There is no better way to end opening day than a date with my husband at islandhousemackinac 🩵🩵 The Grill Room is our favorite spot for any special celebrations and quiet nights away, and Chef Phil is an absolute wizard in the kitchen. They had the most fun event Once Upon an Island for couples who met, got engaged, married, or have a special connection to Mackinac - and we check literally all of those boxes! We met the nicest couple at the cocktail hour and ended up dining with them. Such a fun way to end the best opening day ever! #datenight #islandlife #mackinacisland #michigan #dining

I was thrilled to see my painting at Mackinac Island’s Opening Day ceremony today and learn that I was the First Place winner of the Lilac Festival poster contest!
Mackinac Island has been such a treasured part of my summers throughout my life (and one winter when we took a snowmobile ride across the straits!) This lifelong love makes this honor feel even more special.
To have my painting chosen to represent this year’s beautiful Lilac Festival is truly incredible.
A heartfelt thank you to the Mackinac Arts Council and Mackinac Island Tourism for this opportunity. I feel so blessed and can’t wait to attend the festival and meet everyone at the artist reception!

We made it to our overnight stop in Pellston, Michigan 🇺🇸
A huge thank you to Fire Chief Randy Bricker for welcoming us at the fire station and providing dinner.
Today was one for the books… we covered air, land, and sea. From step off in St. Ignace to incredible views on Mackinac Island to every mile in between, this journey continues to remind us why we trek.
To everyone who stepped off with us, walked alongside us, honked, waved, or showed support in any way—thank you. You are part of this mission.
Follow along and track the journey—link in bio.

Stepping into the stunning Grand Hotel is an unforgettable moment. From the bold colors and timeless furnishings, every corner feels like you are surrounded by ornate luxury at its finest.
In addition to the Grand Lobby, decorated in green and red, there is a parlor for Afternoon Tea, three bars, a coffee shop, ice cream parlor, several boutiques, a salon and spa, a fitness center and the main dining room with an area for the orchestra that plays for guests.
An opportunity to step into the past with the convenience of today, the Grand Hotel is a great place to visit even if you don’t stay overnight.
