Located on Northern Michigan’s Mackinac Island, Grand Hotel beckons you to a bygone era of old-world hospitality and charm. It's an island destination where cars are not allowed and everything is a bike or horse-drawn carriage ride away. We’ve been welcoming guests since 1887, and continue to embrace our rich history with cherished traditions and new surprises to discover. It is a different kind of place that is unlike anything you’ve experienced before.
