“Mackinac is our annual getaway. Every time we step off the ferry and onto the Island, life just feels like it’s on hold. It’s our sweet escape from reality.”
If you have traveled to Mackinac Island, you can more than likely relate. I recently heard these words from a woman staying at the Lilac Tree Suites. She was beaming as she told me her family’s history of annual Island stays. “There’s a magic allure to this place,” her smile enthusiastic. Eyes big and bright. “Oh, and we always stay at the Lilac Tree! It is even my grandchildren’s favorite place to stay!”
What is it about this place that is a breath of fresh air? “Magic Island,” as I have heard it called, offers us a common escape from reality, yet each traveler experiences their escape in a different way.
For many, a traditional 8.2 mile bike ride around the island invites the magic. For others, the waterfront view at the Pink Pony’s Harbor View Dining Room is the peek elation. There are so many different revitalizing activities on Mackinac– family ice cream dates, private carriage tours, picnics on the beach, girlfriend pedicures at The Lilac Tree Spa, sunset strolls…
The Lilac Tree invites you to step away from the day-to-day routine and refresh yourself on Mackinac Island. When you stay with us, we promise personal and friendly service, comfortable room to relax, and space to spread out, and incredible views. Our central downtown location allows guests to be in the midst of island activity while preserving peace and privacy. Begin a new tradition this season by staying at the Lilac Tree Suite and Spa and experience a “Suite Escape.”
