Mission Point Resort after Snowstorm

Saturday morning, we woke up to a world that had been covered in snow! The snowstorm did amazing work- Mackinac Island was blanketed in beautiful, fresh snow! Here are pictures taken of Mission Point Resort- enjoy!

Tranquility Point:


Presidential Suite:


Robinson's Folly:








Lakeside Marketplace:








Round Island Bar & Grill:





Gazebo:


Main Entrance:

















You might notice orange fencing in some photos. It is only up in the winter and protects the greens and other landscaping from snowmobiles! Parts have collapsed under the weight of all the snow!


Conference Center:









Executive Putting Greens:











Bistro on the Greens:





The little golfer statue:





A family sledding:

























There's a lot more to Mission Point's property- these pictures were all taken from the main road, missing places such as the Straits Lodge, theater, and pool. It was stunningly beautiful!

Location:Mackinac Island

  1. Very pretty! So strange to think this was just Saturday, and yesterday, in the same state, I was running around in short sleeves sans coat, and had the windows open! Ah, Michigan weather.

    1. It was literally breathtaking! Because it all came overnight, it was all fresh and undisturbed. It reminded me of Narnia in "the Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe!"

  4. These pics are absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Wish we could be there on the island during the winter. We were there back in August when it was an absolutely gorgeous, 70 degree sunshiney day & rode bikes around the island---couldn't have picked a nicer day to have been there then!! But seeing these snow pics just takes my breath away at how gorgeous God's handiwork can be!!!

    1. I love perfect days on Mackinac Island! Glad you caught one in summer- this season has had few "perfect winter days" but last weekend was definitely winter perfection!
