The BEST resource for planning your trip to Mackinac Island is www.mackinacisland.org where you will find a complete list of all hotels and inns on the island, as well as information regarding transportation to the island. There are many lovely hotels and inns on Mackinac Island that can accommodate different size groups and budgets. Most will require a 2-night stay. We do have a block of rooms reserved at the Island House Hotel.

Getting Around Mackinac Island

All of the wedding venues (Island House/Ice House, Yacht Club and Little Stone Church) are within easy walking distance of downtown. It is about .5 miles (15 minutes) from Little Stone Church to the Yacht Club and Island House Hotel. If you want to take a horse-drawn taxi, you will need to call one in advance. You cannot "hail" a taxi on the island. The number for the taxi is 906-847-3323.
