    I admire someone that has passion for his or her work. You also did a great job of not upstaging him but rather added to the tour gracefully.

    This video is so professional. I felt like I was watching a segment from "This Old House." I can't believe how young and knowledgeable he is. And have his own landscape buisness with 200 customers. I could live in that little cottage that was shown at 16:30.

      vishu singh probably a typical guy, like to know what his wife would share about those things when you actually have to live with him. I am married to a really good looking guy and almost everyday I look at him and roll my eyes & tell him "if all those ladies only knew!!!"

    How beautiful, just the fact that the homes are so well preserved coupled with those beautiful gardens. They truly don't build 'em like that anymore. Love the shaded path and steps in the first house, just like a forest from a fairytale.

    Okay, so we went to Mackinaw Island because of this video.
    My husband and I grew up in MI but now live in NC.
    We still have family in the lower Peninsula but wanted to see the Upper Peninsula.
    We stopped at this house on Mackinaw Island and took pictures!!
    I was so excited! REALLY beautiful!
    Thanks for the inspiration!!

    I need to move into a cooler climate so I could have a garden like that. Absolutely stunning. I live in the desert of California where it got to 115 this summer. Yesterday was 110 degrees cooled off to 100 at 10:00 last night. I'm planning my move as I write.

  • @lizabethw6932
    @lizabethw6932 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    This was so enjoyable. It's fantastic what Jack Barnwell has created there. I enjoyed learning the story about the properties and it's really hard to believe that the landscaing he put in at the Stroh house is only a few years old. We have a similar landscape zone mix but this is a tad bit colder. It's amazing how well the hydrangeas do considering the harshness of the winters there. I'm in Traverse City and have worked to create a flow with my plants as we walk along the garden path to our patio area and found some great inspiration from his work. Thank you for showing this!

    Aw this is the video I wanted to see, I got busy with family things and missed a few months....but these gardens are gorgeous! Outstanding!! I would love to live there...except for the cold winters. I love that they use animals and not cars, when I was a child this would have been my dream place. But now that I'm older, I'm not so sure I could stand the winters.

      Mackinac Island is so amazing . You can ride a bike around the island or cut through the middle of it. There are horses to rent, carriage rides, and an old military fort-there is another fort in Mackinaw City. There are several old buildings of historical significants you can tour. The island is famous for their horses and homemade fudge.

    That is so, so interesting! And it's so nice to see people so much into their work, not only in this video, but other Tous too. Young people, who obviously love what they do, and really have something to say about it. Sorry for my english, I know it's not perfect, but I do hope you understand what I mean.
