The wife and I are contemplating a trip up to Mackinac Island, Michigan
the last weekend in August. Have any of you been there (flown or
otherwise)? If so any recommendations for lodging , eats, etc...

I looks like it will be a really neat flight up there and it is kinda
like stepping back in time.

I lived in Michigan for 18 years and never made it out of the Lower
Peninsula. Thanks!!


We did a trip there a few years ago. There are no cars on Mackinac
Island, so plan on walking or bring a bicycle. We put our bikes in
the back of the Cherokee (it can be done if you remove the rear seats
and dismantle the bikes). The lap around the island was a nice ride
and scenic.

If you are staying overnight the Grand Hotel is supposed to be the
place.

I believe there is a small landing fee for MCD.
