Many years ago, my daughter and I enjoyed a horseback ride around the island. It’s an amazing and beautiful.
I love that you added music so soothing and sweet for our viewing pleasure! Stunning!
Thank you for sharing your time on Mackinac Island with us. My husband had a heart attack and stroke before we had the opportunity to visit. You just gave us the tour we thought we may never experience. You have no idea how much this meant to us!! We love vintage shopping with you too!! God Bless!
You made my day sharing this with me 🥰
Just so beautiful! I can’t wait to go there someday!
Just visited Mackinac Island today! Absolutely spectacular! LOVE IT!!!!
I feel like I'm watching a Hallmark movie ... Amazingly beautiful.. Thank you for sharing..❤ I didnt know such a place existed ...
It does seem unreal, so heavenly 🌸
there is a movie 'Somewhere in Time' set in the Grand Hotel !
I lived on the island for 5 summers while working at Murdick's Fudge. It is indeed a beautiful and very special place!
Besides the incredible water front amazing homes.... Mackinac Island is a gardeners dream vacation. I have never been , but have watched so many of Jack Barnwell's videos and tours. So many that I even recognized his grandmothers home in the beginning of this video. Her backyard water view is gorgeous!!! The river of flowers with the little bridge is magical. Really loved the early morning peaceful walk, with the birdsong and little flags in all the pots ! A picture perfect town. Thanks so much for the Grand Hotel tour. I have never seen the inside. You must have been up with the birds, or been there during a slow week. I am surprised it didn't seem crowded at all. I'm sure your head was swimming with garden ideas when you left. Getting in 10,000 steps would not be a problem there. I could walk all day with the beautiful paths and trails and house and gardens. Every woman's dream.
Yes, I love Jack Barnwell’s gardens! There is no other place like this, it’s magical! We go every year, but probably not this year as I’m approaching my third trimester and you can’t really fully enjoy the island without walking a good amount.
@@oldmaplehome Wow... stay happy and healthy
A Michigander here. The Mackinac area (on and off the island) is a great place to spend time exploring. Our state has so many unique and beautiful places to see and experience. We have a gorgeous state!
Beautiful! Thank you for the walk down memory lane. I grew up in Michigan, we have been to the island several times. My husband and I have stayed at the grand hotel on three different occasions. I remember all of the beautiful hollyhocks and gardens. We were there in 1979 when they were filming the movie, Somewhere In Time with Christopher Reeves. Our daughter was with us at that time, and she spent as much time as she could on the set where they were filming the movie. I must say nothing has changed. Thank you again for the memories! If you haven’t seen the movie, it is worth watching!
I followed a landscaper on RUclips during those weird years in 2020-2022 who did a ton of work on Mackinac Island and was amazed by the beauty of the gardens and homes and the island's cleanliness. I did not know there was no traffic...that's the dream right there!!! Thank you so much for taking us along Elizabeth, what a treat!
This is so beautiful. I have always wanted to go there. I shared your video with my family. Hopefully we can plan a trip someday. Your video was awesome. Thanks for taking all the footage.
I will be watching this video several times! There are no words to describe the beauty the Lord has made there!❤
Amen. Me too from Colo! Born in Garden City however, grew up in Colo. I love Michigan
The quiet and beauty of early morning is serene.
Thank you for this lovely video
How utterly beautiful! I thought I caught a glimpse of Richard and Elise for a bit. I definitely will go there.
Some pretty and some gaudy 😊
Somewhere in time..I loved that movie. I'm so happy you are there
It's such a beautiful place
I'm getting ready to watch it
This place almost doesn't look real. It is like a fairy tale. Beautiful and Breath Taking !!!!!!
Thank you for sharing! Just beautiful, been there many years ago, definitely want to go again. Great footage!
I was there this past October. It is beautiful!
Thankyou for sharing! Really beautiful!
Yes this place is so beautiful, the homes,flowers just stunning!! Thank you for sharing!!❤️🥀🌹
Gorgeous! I can't believe that little sweetie knows the word hydrangea. ❤
My future gardener 🥰
Stunningly beautiful!! Great job filming.
Thank you!!
You captured the Island and the Hotel beautifully! I haven’t been since 2012 when my nephew got married at Stonecliff. I think it’s time to make a trip back. Thanks for sharing your vacation with us. The memories you are creating with your children are priceless.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. The beauty of it all just brought me to tears. Those flowers must have smelled amazing!!!
Wow absolutely stunning gardens, thanks so much for sharing!
BEAUTIFUL!!!❤❤❤
I live a little less than 2 hours away and have been many times and I seem to find something new every time I go. The best thing to do is spend the night - quiet after everyone leaves😊
I love Mackinac Island. One of my most favorite vacations ever.
I've never been there in beautiful spring! Thanks for the gorgeous tour!!💛🌸
I was there 5 days ago for a wedding at Mission Point Resort. The island was covered in tulips. Absolutely beautiful!
So many beautiful homes and flowers.
It’s wonderful 🌸
I love your video of this island. Thank you so much for sharing. Beautiful!!!
Hi, I just came upon your channel. You did a fabulous job filming, especially while vacationing with your family. I thought it was so cute when I hear moments of your child speaking and especially commenting on how there were not any white hydrangeas! I hope to visit this magnificent floral island one day! 🥰🌸🇨🇦
What a beautiful video! You really captured the essence of the place.
Thanks so much for this beautiful video! Now I want to make plans to go there. Certainly looks like paradise for those that love nature’s beauty! You did such a tasteful job of capturing the beautiful landscapes with the perfect music and just the right amount of information.
Thank you for this magical tour!
So glad you included shots of the Secret Garden one of my favorites. We go up almost every year and I never tire of it.
*So beautiful...loved seeing all of the plants and flowers; especially the hollyhocks and coleus❣️ The water 🌊 is so inviting and pretty.*
*I am so glad you mentioned in a video of yours I watched earlier today that you and your family went to Mackinac Island. It appears I have not been receiving all of the notifications RUclips is SUPPOSED TO BE PROVIDING TO ME (And yours is NOT the only channel I watch for which RUclips has stiffed me on notifications‼️😡) so that I don't miss any of your content. I now see I have missed several videos, for which I must now catch up on, Elizabeth. Something I will enjoy doing, to say the least. Be encouraged, your RUclips family knows about their shenanigans 👎and we WILL get caught up and CONTINUE TO PURSUE YOU AND YOUR MARVELOUS CONTENT, Elizabeth, IN SPITE OF RUclips❣️🤪😁💜*
Thank you so much for taking me along . I won't get to go so I am just soaking it in. The amount of flowers for each house is amazing. I just bought a flat of flowers and it cost me enough. It is like a dream. and the water takes on a beautiful back drop. My thing is hearing the waves come in. Your kids seem great. I hope they remember it all. Thank you again. Joyce
Hello From Texas - wonderful video AND a very beautiful place indeed. Looking forward to all your professional works. Thank you.
I was born and raised in lower Michigan, all my family still lives there, except for me because I now live in Wisconsin. When I was a child, our family visited Mackinaw City and the Island every year! I loved the island, but never appreciated the gorgeous homes, landscaping and the nostalgic atmosphere like I have as an adult! It is still one of my favorite places to visit, it never gets old! It's time for another trip there! 😊 Thank you for sharing your visit!!
Lucky you. That place is breathtaking and beautiful.,the flowers are gorgeous. Thank you for sharing this wonderful place with us ❤❤
It’s just absolutely stunning! Glad I could share! 🌸
@@oldmaplehome So glad I got to see this through your travels.
What magnificence!! Thank you...
I have been several times. If I could pick one place to live it would be there. It has everything I love!
Cold winters…. Store opens once a week but the bars always open! Good Times. A lot of time to plan those flowers and summer plans.
Somewhere in Time is my absolute hands down favorite movie. Watching the footage of the Grand Hotel captivated me. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely a beautiful place to visit or live! Everything to the gardens to the houses were stunning! Especially loved the horse drawn carriage in the beginning of your video, I saw in the background. That brought back wonderful memories for me when I had a horse drawn carriage ride at a Disney World resort ( Fort Wilderness) , while we were waiting for a dinner show.
The white picket fences reminded me of my great grandmother’s backyard fence.
Also what a beautiful hotel, both inside and outside, especially the grounds! The landscapers do a fantastic job!
It’s my favorite place in the world…have been there about 10-12 times. When I was married we went every year for our anniversary. Have you ever seen “Somewhere In Time”…Christopher Reeves & Jane Seymour starred in it. It was filmed there. My most favorite movie! If followed some of the trails, there’s an amazing cemetery. Hoping to go again this summer. Thank you for reminding me of how amazing this s place is!❤❤
Thank you for sharing! It was so beautiful!!😊
You’re so welcome!!
Thanks for taking us to the island. It's been quite a few years since we were there. I don't remember the flowers being so beautiful. We have had the privilege of staying at the Grand Hotel twice. Hope you had an amazing time there.
It’s my favorite place! We have never stayed at the grand, but always stay on the island. I don’t think we’re gonna make it this year for the first time in over a decade 🥲
I had no idea so many homes were in the community. The labor involved with keeping everything so beautiful in the gardens
Thank you for taking us along with you! I've always wanted visit there, but know I never will now at this point in my life. It's absolutely beautiful there, and the Grand Hotel...breathtaking!
#1 on my bucket list!! Thank you for such a wonderful tour!!!
What a beautiful place. Love their gardens ❤
Wow, that was beautiful. I really need more flowers in my garden❤
What a beautiful place 🌺!!!
Absolutely stunning gardens and homes. Thank you for sharing!
I’ve been to Mackinaw Island. It’s a lovely place. All the people there were friendly. I think everyone was caught up by the beauty, peace, and tranquility.
I have been to Mackinac Island when I was a child I used to live in Michigan and I love it so much and I plan on coming there again. The island is so beautiful and by the way, the fudge is amazing. I am a big gardener and a love of all the beautiful yards in the old Victorian cottage homes I love vintage. My dream would be to live on Mackinac Island. I know the winters are not nice, but the summers are phenomenal and a Mackinaw bridge is absolutely beautiful.
I love this video! I had no idea how beautiful it was there! New bucket list!
Everyone should see it in person at least once! 🌸
Oh how lovely! Thank you so much. 🇨🇦👏🇨🇦
Just beautiful!!! I have wanted to go there ever since I saw the movie, Somewhere in Time!! I loved the movie. Thank you for taking us along. Maybe one day! The Hotel is gorgeous!! ❤
Beautiful gardens
That was beautiful, thank you for sharing!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you. Mackinac Island is the home of my ancestors beginning in 1754. One home is preserved at the foot of the path to the fort. Another is preserved on the mainland. The McGulpin lighthouse just west of Mackinac City. The gardens are beautiful. I live nearby and try to mimic them. I hope you enjoyed your visit.
We visited Mackinac Island in October and I fell in love with this gorgeous piece of heaven. Can’t wait to go back - would love to go in the spring as this video shows such beauty. Definitely would recommend it to anyone that wants to step back in time.
Karen, would you choose spring or fall to visit for the first time? I'm wanting to go so bad! Thanks, Vickie
So beautiful thank you for sharing ❤
I have been here several times. The beauty and peaceful atmosphere lulls you back time after time. My vision of heaven on earth.
Can you share where you've stayed when going? Thx
I've been there several times, plan on going again before fall. I get such a good feeling when I'm there. I only live about a 1.5 hours away
It’s the most charming and romantic place I have ever been, I love to so much!
The gardens are just to die for.. beautiful..thanks for sharing with us❤
Ohhh Wowww... the homes & flowers are absolutely stunning😮 Love the little stone church.. but that garden with the bridge, beautiful beyond words!❤ The Grand Hotel is unbelievably breathtaking. The lawns & gardens there my goodness! Even the stables are a gorgeous site! I could see myself living here😊 The flower part of those white hydrangeas were huge!! Seeing the ocean in the background was a beautiful scene. Ohhh goodness the inside of the hotel!! And the art.. just the kind i love❤ That view from upstairs, amazing! Even the ocean looks more beautiful there! I would love to live in the house you toured, I'd also love to have photo/picture hanging on the walls!! And take the horse & buggy everywhere i go.. no cars😁 Thank you so much for sharing this stunning place with us.. its now on my bucket list😉😊
Such a beautiful place! I’m definitely going in the next yr. Thank you for sharing this Elizabeth.. ❤
This island is stunning ! The homes and flowers so so beautiful ! 🌸🌹 The hotel is just gorgeous too ! Thank you for sharing Mackinac Island 😊 Great video 👍
Merci pour ce magnifique voyage que du bonheur 🌷❤⚘️❤🌳❤
I live on Drummond Island, about an hour or so away, North East, from Mackinac Island. I love it there and go as often as I can!
I visited Mackinac Island in 1966 with my family and next door neighbors. My memories are still wonderful. My friend and I took a horse and buggy ride. The fudge was great.
Hello, enjoyed the video, it was just gorgeous there, the flowers were breathtaking. I live in Ohio never been to Michigan my neighbor next door she is from there, her son still lives there. Take care, hope to see you soon.
Many times. Love it there.
I have been to Mackinac Island when I was a child I used to live in Michigan and I love it so much and I plan on coming there again. The island is so beautiful and by the way, the fudge is amazing.
Thank you for taking us along on a magical trip. The music is beautiful. I watched on RUclips on my tv. Used my phone to go to your channel to leave a comment. I love watching your channel.
Beautiful! I e never been but my parents have and it’s quite lovely!
Beautiful tour! Thank You very much :)
Been there many times! Born and live in Michigan my whole life!❤
Hi absolutely beautiful breathtaking 😍
It truly is a gift of a place 🥰
Absolutely beautiful!!! Thank you for the tour.
wonderful tour. Your music was perfect.MK
Thank you so much for the tour. Such a beautiful place. 💖
So peaceful 🦋
I have been to the island a couple times, and you are right it’s beyond beautiful. I love that there is only bicycles or horse and buggy as transportation, and I remember the fudge shops! Yum
Beautiful video, beautiful island🌸 Really hoping to take my little family there soon! Thank you🦋
I hope you get the chance to! 🥰
Beautiful!
You did an awesome job showcasing the island. I live in the metro Detroit area. As a child, our family has made several trips there, including biking around the island. Plus, we have had the privilege to take our children.
I love Mackinac Island. I try to make it annually for the Lilac Festival in early June. You have a lovely young family so thankful for sharing your adventures
I've been to Mackinac Island 68 times .Sometimes going 3 times per year when I lived in Cincinnati Ohio. Now live in Melbourne fl and only have been to Straits of Mackinac 2 times since 2017.
Just beautiful, thank you for sharing made my day .
Thank you Elizabeth and Family ❤for Sharing with Us the Beautiful landscapes and Houses. The scenery is Beautiful 😍. May I ask where is this island at since I'm from California 🌞
I'm guessing maybe Lake Michigan
Enjoy the Rest of your Fabulous Week Take Care ❤
Just subscribed. Beautifully made video. Music perfectly fits. Homes and hotel grand. The carpeting in the hotel, love it! Heard no cars, only walkers, bikes and horse pulled carriages. Magical. The Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard of the midwest.
Thank you for this amazing video. This confirms where I want my husband and I to vacation next.
Reminds me a little of Wolfeboro, NH. The oldest summer resort in America. You should put it on your bucket list of places to visit. I like September there the best!
After watching you and others based out of Michigan it’s on my list for sure!!
You must go if you ever get the chance!
Lovely video of a magical place!! Thank you so very much!!❤❤
