Mackinac Island Part VI

Fort Mackinac Commissary

Grand Hotel. It was pouring at this point so we did not get a chance to walk around the Grand Hotel's gardens. What we saw though was gorgeous, so I imagine it is all pretty breathtaking. We had to pay $10 to tour the hotel since we weren't staying there. But I will say this. It was so interesting and it was evident that back in the day when the hotel was built, the hotel must have been the top of the line, best hotel to stay at, ever. It would have been amazing. It was still awesome, but we prefer more modern and contemporary hotels. With that being said, I would probably pay the $480 to stay there for one night, just to be able to say I've stayed there. :) Maybe next time.

We had to sit on the famous front porch of the Grand Hotel. :)

My view from the porch. You can see Lake Huron out there, but the rain made it pretty hazy and not very clear!

The 660' front porch. So relaxing!
