Missing Mackinac
The title of this post is a lie, I don’t miss Mackinac. I am only one hour away, and I miss Mackinac in Spring - not high season.
Having lived out of state for nearly twenty years until I moved back in 2021, I had not been to Mackinac in some time. I was impressed with how much the island has grown, and how the powers that be have been able to keep it as you remember and not become overrun with corporations.
We stayed at The Grand Hotel in the Jefferson Suite, in mid May which is early for this far north. However, geraniums were out and even had some blooms, and it was serene to sit on the iconic balcony porch without jockeying for a space.
