Mackinac is a busy summer destination and accommodations on the island can book up close to a year in advance. We want to encourage all of our guests to explore travel and reserve lodging as early as possible in order to ensure you can join us for our big day. The island is such a joy and we hope you can soak it all in.

There are a lot of great options on the island to stay. Our biggest recommendation here is to call to make your reservations (especially for hotels other than the Grand Hotel). You will get an answer very quickly if you make the phone call connection. Please note that most, if not all, hotels have a two-night minimum during the peak summer months.

Refer to the "Island Information & Travel" page for details on how to get around the island / get to your specific hotel. The Shepler's dock is in the downtown area, so is walking distance to most hotels listed below, but there are typically carriages available at the docks to take you where you need to go. As noted in the "Island Information & Travel" page, carriages are cash-only.

We have a discounted block here. To make reservations, please make a reservation online here. All wedding events will be held here, but please note you are not required to stay at the hotel.

The discounted base rate is $415/night for the grand rooms for single or double occupancy (excluding breakfast and fees - see below for further information). The grand rate increases to $455 for triple occupancy or $495 for quad occupancy. The discounted base rate is $515/night for the lakeview rooms for single or double occupancy (excluding the same additional fees as the grand room). The lakeview rate increases to $555 for triple occupancy or $595 for quad occupancy. The room block is for Friday, June 5 - Sunday, June 7 (two nights) in accordance with the hotel's two night minimum requirement.

Additional fees:

The discounted room rates are for the Breakfast Only Meal Plan (B&B), which means there is a required add-on of breakfast per person per day (i.e. in addition to the rates listed above). Price is $39/person per day plus 6% Michigan sales tax. The breakfast is held in the main dining room and includes an extensive breakfast buffet or a la carte breakfast options. Refer here for the current menu.

A 19.5% resort fee is applied to all guest room rates (the $415 or $515/night), as well as Michigan's 6% sales tax and a Mackinac Island assessment fee of 3%. There is also a one-time charge for round-trip baggage transfer from the ferry docks to the hotel and return. The baggage handling charge is $15/person.

The rate initially shown at the room block link above ($602/night for grand or $724/night for lakeview) assumes a two adult occupancy and is inclusive of the required additions for breakfast, resort fee, baggage handling fee, and Mackinac Island assessment fee. The checkout window provides a detailed breakdown of the additional fees (the breakfast is included in the pricing in the 2 Nights stay section).

At the time of reservation, you must provide a valid credit card and two night's refundable advance deposit to secure a room.

Cancellation options:

More than 30 days before arrival - receive full refund of deposit, less a $100 processing fee.

Within 30 days of arrival - no refund

We love the Chippewa because of its location on the water, the famous Pink Pony restaurant downstairs and their nice accommodations! Our block is for 6/5-6/7 (2 night minimum).

The Lilac Tree is SUPER close to the Grand Hotel! Right on Main Street, it's in a great location for shopping and restaurants. Book your rooms here! Our block is for 6/5-6/7 (2 night minimum).

While we do not have room blocks at these hotels, you are welcome to stay at any of the below hotels (or others you may find on the island). The majority of these are in the downtown area of Mackinac and are walking distance to the Grand Hotel (~10-15 minute walk). If you do not see availability online for 6/5-6/7, we recommend calling the hotels directly to confirm availability.
