The Grand Hotel was built in 93 days in 1887, no labor laws then. It boasts the longest covered porch in the world, has a full golf course. Several famous people stayed here, including movie stars, on the Island to do what they do - act in movies.
The carriage house, above and below, dozens of carriages and sleighs with names and history.
Motorized vehicles aren't allowed on the Island. Cycle, walk, rent a horse or take a horse-drawn conveyance. The one below is the second one we boarded, doing the Island tour - which, if you enjoy history, is excellent.
Artie, patiently waiting for his burger and fries to arrive, napkin tucked into his collar. Trish washed hers down with a margarita while I had an IPA. After lunch, we took the ferry back to St Ignace.
