Mackinaw Island


Pat's Aunt Laura & Uncle Jeff surprised us with a weekend get-away to Mackinaw Island. With the hectic work schedules and finding a dog sitter Pat and I decided that instead of the two of us going I would invite my mom.

It was such a nice long weekend. The two of us had so much fun.  This was my first time to the Island and it was beautiful! All the leaves were at their peak for fall colors, and they had their fall decorations up along Main St.




We stayed at the Island House Hotel. It was beautiful! We had a beautiful view of the water right out front. 











We had lunch at the Grand Hotel. This weekend was the last weekend the Island was open for tourists and the stores were starting to pack up for the winter. We had a nice table overlooking the water and after we walked along the front porch. It was huge!!










Later in the day we went for a bike ride. The ride was so pretty right along the water all the way. I wouldn't mind having a house with a view like this one!!







We had such a wonderful relaxing weekend. Thank you again Aunt Laura & Uncle Jeff!!
