Grand Hotel
Grand Hotel is situated on the southwestern bluff of Mackinac Island overlooking the Straits of Mackinac and – in the distance – the Mackinac Bridge. From the front porch – the world’s largest at 660 feet – guests can look down at the well-kept gardens and relax and enjoy the ambiance of “somewhere in time”. It is no wonder that hollywood has chosen to come here more than once. Indeed, like a classic movie, Grand Hotel is larger that life. The Victorian elegance has been kept intact. Each room at Grand Hotel has been tastefully decorated by New York designer Carleton Varney with its own special character and style. Breakfast and dinner daily are included in the Grand Hotel room rate, and are served in the Main Dining Room. Visit their website and familiarize yourself with the elegance and the history of this magnificent hotel. A stay on Mackinac Island at Grand Hotel is a unique experience and most guests depart to the mainland with memories that last a lifetime.

Welcome to the Main Dining Room, where every meal is a special occasion Our Main Dining Room has undergone a graceful transformation in celebration of dorothydraperco's 100th Anniversary. Blending timeless charm with a renewed vibrancy. The space now features pastel yellow walls, fresh new window coverings highlighting tulips found on Mackinac Island, newly reupholstered chairs that retain their classic green hue, enhanced with delicate tulip motifs. The carpet has also been updated, featuring elegant floral arrangements of tulips both at the entrance and bursting across the entire floor of the Pontiac Room.
Guests and visitors can look forward to experiencing celebration as they savor a daily highlight in Grand Hotel’s Main Dining Room during breakfast, Grand Luncheon Experience, and our elegant five-course dinner.

Step inside Baroque, an elegant bar located in the Parlor of Grand Hotel, is a tribute to the legendary interior designer dorothydraperco and her signature Modern Baroque style. Designed by Dorothy Draper & Company, the space evokes old New York elegance with its rich palette of emerald greens, deep reds, black, gold, and intricate lattice work. As Dorothy Draper & Co. celebrates their 100th Anniversary in 2025, Grand Hotel has reimagined the former Audubon Bar into Baroque, a refreshed space marking the first transformation of this venue since our design partnership began in 1979. The revitalized bar is a commemorative space honoring Draper’s enduring design legacy, and bringing opulence and history together in a truly timeless setting. It will continue to showcase deep reds, emeralds, and gold. The room was painted by DiblasiPainting of New York. It took them five weeks to complete the work including sanding, five coats of primer, two coats of the deep dark green, and two coats of a high gloss finish. The room’s wooden floor-to-ceiling bookshelves have been painted a shiny, almost reflective, deep green. We look forward to welcoming you to Baroque, the newest chapter in Grand Hotel’s storied tradition. #GrandHotelMichigan #DorothyDraper #AmericasSummerPlace #DorothyDraper

Over the next few days, we are honored to welcome thousands of guests and visitors to Mackinac Island as they choose to celebrate Independence Day with us. With that, we invite you to experience our newly reimagined Parlor at Grand Hotel. Since 1887, the Parlor has been the heart and soul of Grand Hotel, a place where guests gather to share stories, enjoy live music, and prepare for unforgettable adventures on Mackinac Island. In 1976, Grand Hotel partnered with Dorothy Draper & Company and Carleton Varney to transform the space with signature touches like the red geranium, Grand Hotel green, and vibrant furnishings spanning the decades. Now, the Parlor has been refreshed once again. The iconic dark green has been replaced with a new coral hue, Huron Sunrise, evoking the brilliant skies over the Straits of Mackinac. A new mural graces the Afternoon Tea area, complementing the Victorian scenes on the east and west walls. The carpet has also been completely updated throughout the entire Parlor level, including Peacock Alley, the Art Gallery, guest room hallway, and the Main Dining Room. Look closely and you might spot a single Grand Hotel “G” hidden in the new pattern of vines and red-and-green geraniums. We also invite you to return this fall for Dorothy Draper Design Weekend, September 26–28, 2025. Join us in celebrating 100 years of iconic American interior design with special events, including “Draper 101: Tea and History,” exclusive insider sessions, Afternoon Tea in The Parlor, and a grand 100th Anniversary Celebration Reception.

Happy #NationalSwimmingPool Day! What better place to celebrate than the iconic, one‑and‑only Esther Williams Swimming Pool?
Originally built in 1927, this beautiful pool became a piece of Hollywood history when Esther Williams, the “Million Dollar Mermaid,” swam here while filming This Time for Keeps in 1947. Today, it’s a Grand Hotel landmark, a place where guests have been making a splash and enjoying summer under the Mackinac Island sun for nearly a century

Ito katuwa sa lahat, mga 6 yrs old ako noon - pinangarap ko talaga maging magla-lako ng manggang hinog!!
May mga puno kasi kami ng mangga sa probinsya tapos cool na cool sa tingin ko ung mga aleng may bilao sa ulo habang nagla-lako ng paninda nila. No joke!
– Well, with the exception (still) of being a mango peddler, I’d say I got to experience all of them one way or another. Flight
school, showbiz... I am actually now a gardener and sick people - I heal in Jesus’ name!!
And even though I wasn’t as successful as I could’ve chosen to be in the industry of showbiz and aviation, I am living my dream life
