Grand Hotel – Photos
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.

What is Mackinac Island’s biggest export?
—
Mackinac Island is iconic for its Victorian houses, horse drawn carts and bicycles. But what really makes the island tick, drives its economy and has secured its place in Michigan tourism, is the fudge.
—
This island, with only 500 residents, is home to more than a dozen fudge shops ready to serve the 1 million annual visitors. On peak summer tourist days, visitors collectively buy over 10,000 pounds of fudge per day. To keep up with this intense demand, the island imports 10 tons of sugar and 1 ton of butter every week.

True story: I looked so happy with my bloomfieldcreamery ALMOND BRITTLE & MACKINAC ISLAND FUDGE ICE CREAM that a couple strolling along the sidewalk asked me what I was eating 😅🍨
Y’all have to try this flavor! 🥇 The vanilla ice cream is silky and fragrant, the almond brittle is crunchy and nutty, and the Mackinac Island fudge is chocolatey and decadent 🍫💕

Noteworthy mention that if you’re ever in Marquette MI, you have to stop by Jilbert Dairy for a Mackinac Island Fudge. The fudge was soo rich and the ice cream was fresh out the processing plant. Also, the prices were really reasonable, swipe to check out the menu board.

Eating a lot of fudge while spending the weekend on Mackinac Island was inevitable, so I tried to make it into a learning experience by comparing the different types while I was at it. Overall Murdick’s fudge has a more mature and complex flavor and texture, while Ryba’s and Joann’s have softer fudge with a simpler, but still delicious, flavor. Here’s the breakdown:
~ rybasfudge is the softest and smoothest. All three flavors, chocolate peanut butter, plain chocolate, and sea salt caramel were delicious, with the sea salt caramel being the favorite in my family because of the nice balance between salty and sweet. I enjoyed the chocolate peanut butter, but if you don’t love the peanut butter flavor or want a lighter fudge, I would suggest getting a different flavor since the peanut butter mixed with the already very sweet fudge might be too rich for some people’s taste.
~ joannsfudge is still soft, but, at least in the double dark chocolate that I tried, has a slightly grainer texture. The double dark chocolate had a less sweet flavor than the regular chocolate, which is good if you don’t like things that are too sweet.
~ originalmurdicks has the biggest texture difference. It has a grainier texture, which some people thought made it better than other kinds that were smoother, and is firmer, as you can see in the video. The plain chocolate also had a more caramelly flavor.

Do you know about World Sauntering Day? 🌎 It started at the grandhotelmichigan in Makinac Island in the 1970s. The idea behind the day is to slow down and enjoy the good things in life 🥰 and that’s easy to do on #MakinacIsland! In case you didn’t know 😎 sauntering means walking slowly with a happy disposition. 🤗 Once you taste some of the world famous fudge 🍫 and candy 🍭 of the shops downtown, it’ll be easy to saunter along Main Street. Happy Tuesday! 🥰💋
A truly stunning evening grandhotelmichigan

Well, I am officially back to work and looking back 6 weeks ago, the thought of going back to work made me nauseous. How could I step back into a role that made me face my husbands death over and over again? Thats what I do for a living. I am a critical care nurse practitioner. Death and dying are unfortunately a huge part of my job. I take care of the sickest of the sick. I have end of life conversations with families. I run codes on patients. And just 6 weeks ago, I was on the other side as the family who had to see her husband being resuscitated by my co-workers after he unexpectedly and suddenly through a lethal arrhythmia while driving home from work. I had to watch my best friend, soul mate, and the love of my life get coded. And after over 45 minutes without regaining a pulse after immediate CPR and being defibrillated over 10 times, I had to make the call to stop resuscitative efforts.
But walking back into work and into my role, I have this new found strength. I picked up were I left off 6 weeks ago and I went back to the job I love with a little more grit, perspective, and understanding from the other side of the table. My work family has surrounded me with so much love and support and I am truly grateful to be back at work and trying to muddle through finding my new normal.
The first night I came home from work was really hard. I didn’t anticipate the feelings I would have coming home from a “normal day at work” to not having Scott at home waiting for me. Usually he would just be getting off work when I got home and those are the moments we would look forward to after a long work day. We just looked forward to spending the night together. And I don’t have that anymore. So now I come home, to a quiet house and it really hit me hard. I still don’t get it. I don’t think I ever will. But for now, I just have to fight through each day and reward myself for the little accomplishments + victories. I made it back to work. I can function at work and be a competent provider with a lot to offer my patients, their families, and my co-workers. And for that, I will give myself some grace for the sad moments post work because it WILL get better. ❤️
One of our favorite summer moments is visiting the grandhotelmichigan’s secret garden. Thanks to rosewitt67 for capturing this beautiful moment to share with all of you 💚

🌺Our last family vacation together with all the boys under one roof. We always knew this time would come but it certainly doesn’t make it any easier. I know this isn’t our last family vacation but it’s our last vacation where I have a certainty and control over our son’s schedules. For the most part, planning a trip has always been so simple. Now there will be variables where we have to take into consideration college breaks, high school breaks, sports schedules, work and internship schedules, or gasp, maybe Nate, our now college student, will choose to go on spring break with his friends rather than us! 😳
For now that’s all I can and will do is relish every moment of our last family trip together “under one roof. I’ll make sure to take lots of pictures (even though they complain but thank me later😊) and squeeze in a lot of hugs!
🌺If you’ve been following my stories you know we are heading to Mackinac Island, Michigan and staying grandhotelmichigan. {Swipe to see} I’d love your recommendations if you’ve been!!!
