Did you know? In 1865, Captain Henry Van Allen made a bold move—literally—and relocated the entire Island House Hotel nearly 300 feet back from the shoreline.
It wasn’t just about location. It was a visionary decision that made room for growth and helped secure the hotel’s future as Mackinac Island blossomed into a beloved summer destination. Thanks to his foresight, Island House has been welcom... See MoreSee Less

NEW VIDEO out on youtube now!
ad• From wobbly tandem bikes, kayaks and a champagne toast in the middle of Lake Erie, this 7-day expedition aboard Viking Polaris took us through historic cities, islands lost in time, and ended with us completely drenched under Niagara Falls.
We laughed, we learned, we launched a weather balloon… and we definitely overindulged in Hot Dogs, Harleys and History.
Watch the full 55-minute adventure now—and find out why this Great Lakes cruise might just be North America’s most underrated voyage.

An absolutely unforgettable time exploring Fort Mackinac. Cannon blasts, crisp lake air, and stories echoing through history. The view over Lake Huron from the bluff was something else — blue skies, calm water, and a deep sense of presence.

Dark Magneton #11 from Team Rocket Raw $22.75, PSA 10 $700.45. Track: Darkness Within by Aekae aekaemusicLocation: Mackinac Island’s spiritual history is a rich blend of sacred Indigenous tradition, Catholic missionary influence, and modern-day spiritual tourism. For the Anishinaabe, it was a divine meeting place with the Great Spirit, used for ritual and vision-seeking. Europeans layered Christian traditions onto this sacred ground, creating a legacy of complex spiritual intersections. Today, the island retains a palpable sense of sacredness—through its stillness, its history, and the enduring stories of those who have viewed it as holy ground. #pokemon #pokemoncard #pokemoncommunity #pokemontcgcommunity #pokemontcg #teamrocket #pokemoninstagram #mackinacisland #aekae #hardwave

Zoo De Mack ride in the books! Something I've been wanting to do since 2008 is finally checked off. 51 miles of what was some of the most beautiful scenery I've ever biked and the state has to offer. Starting in Harbor springs and riding the coast line to Mackinaw City was simply euphoric for me. The first 15 miles were all hills (which made me question my idea of doing it and fun), but the remainder of the ride was through trees along Lake Michigan and sand dunes. The feeling of finishing was surreal and a little emotional. I'm thankful the weather held up and the sun was shining. I can't thank the guys at rollmodelsracing enough for having my bike fixed and coming in clutch 10 days before the ride (seriously if you want to get into biking please go see them). Also thank you to everyone who messaged me the morning of and during it to make sure I was still alive .
