There's no grander welcome to Mackinac Island and its four square miles of carless tranquility than the front porch of the Grand Hotel.

In fact, the hotel's 660-foot-long front porch framed by towering white Colonial Revival columns is the world's longest porch. It extends more than two football fields in length and is filled with dozens of rocking chairs inviting you to take a seat and gaze out over the Straits of Mackinac, located between Michigan's two peninsulas. The hotel — a National Historic Landmark — is the crown jewel of this enchanting island. Since 1887, its guest book has been signed by five U.S. presidents, as well as luminaries ranging from John Jacob Astor III and Mark Twain to Robert De Niro and Madonna.
