Looks like fantastic weather for Memorial Day Weekend on Mackinac Island… sunshine and highs in the 70s… still splashes of color from the tulips and the lilacs are starting to bloom… here’s the view you’ll be treated to on your visit to Mackinac Island this weekend….

If you can’t make it this weekend the lilacs should be blooming strong for the weekend of June 5 & 6 and the Mackinac Island Lilac Festival is June 11 – 20, 2010

Cloghaun Bed & Breakfast – Photos

Cloghaun is one of the oldest Victorian homes on the Island. Thomas and Bridget Donnelly left Ireland in 1848, and completed Cloghaun in 1884. This lovely home has been preserved by their descendants and now offers guests a tranquil, romantic interlude from the demands of everyday life. Eleven guest rooms individually designed and decorated with antiques from the late 1800’s evoke a feeling of casual elegance.
