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.

Winter’s chill is now descending on the Straits of Mackinac, and ice like this will soon be building up, turning the roaring channel beneath the Mighty Mac into a vast, silent frozen sea.

One of my favorite vistas on the island. Town looks so peaceful from up here, especially in the winter when there are so few people on the island. ❄️

THANK YOU to our recent guests for leaving excellent reviews on Campspot.com 🌲 Indian River RV Resort offers easy online reservations through the Campspot system. You can make reservations for our May through September 2026 season, NOW. And if you happen to book during May, we'll gift you with TWO FREE FERRY TICKETS! Two adult tickets are valued at $76 and will whisk you away to one of the most beautiful and romantic islands in the United States: Mackinac Island, Michigan. Ⓜ️The 1/2-hour ferry crossing from Mackinaw City to Mackinac Island is one of the most popular excursions for our guests. It's a trip that Shepler's Ferry has been making since the company's founding in 1945, and we're only a half-hour drive to their parking area. ⛴️ While our region is full of fantastic places to discover, there's no doubt that our guests love romantic, beautiful, and educational Mackinac Island. You'll find numerous shops and excellent restaurants. Our favorites include having Afternoon Tea at the distinguished Grand Hotel, then boarding a horse-drawn carriage for a narrated tour of the island that leads to Fort Mackinac, and buying a box of the island's famous fudge to take home. A day on Mackinac Island makes for an incredible adventure back in time, and when you stay with us next May, you'll enjoy a free ferry trip! Please visit our website to make easy online reservations for this season or 2026 at www.IndianRiverRVResort.com

Pending permit decisions from the Army Corp of Engineers and EGLE, Michigan is facing a major construction project based on incomplete reviews, faulty economic benefits, and flawed safety measures. The latest oilandwaterdontmixcoalition risk report shows how a Line 5 tunnel would leave the state and its residents shouldering the danger and the long-term liability.

Next color up: peachy red!
Wasn't sure how this color would turn out, but it really warms the piece. Can't wait to see how it will come together!
