Mackinac Island's Historic
Summer Cottages
Presented by
Phil Porter, Mackinac Island State Historic Parks (Retired)
| In the late nineteenth century, Mackinac Island became one of the Midwest’s premier resorts. The island’s cottage communities mirrored Mackinac’s growing popularity as a summer destination. Our speaker provides a visual tour highlighting the evolution of the island’s summer cottage communities from early simple vernacular homes to later opulent mansions. |
