Russ as early as you get up you will have no wait for the boat ride.
One of my favorite places, but the bridge is 5 miles long. We stay on the other side in St. Ignace. Love looking at the bridge at night the lights on it are awesome.
Very enjoyable video Russ, two years ago me & Julie flew a Mooney Acclaim from Marathon, Florida to Mackinac Island, it was cool to be cruising at 230 kts. at 1000 ft AGL up the east coast of Lake Michigan. Lots of aircraft traffic around Mackinac Island and they have no control tower so you really have to be on your toes and monitor your radios closely. If you call in ahead of time on the Unicom they make arrangements for the horse & buggy taxi to pick you up and take you to your hotel, the whole Island is like a place lost in time, it's the most quintessential experience ever.....
My uncle was in charge of deciding all the signs on the bridge
Amazing,pretty place! THANKS for Sharing!
Russ love your mich video I'm from south mich I go up north every chance I get .
Your here👍🏻🙏🏻😁😄 welcome to Michigan. NOMADICFANATIC is here 😲🙁🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
You would love the Island It is 5 miles around, short walk to everything...It's like going back in time. You can spend a lot of money on the Island, probably best to by pass it!! Driving over the bridge in the van will be cool. I've drove over it and sailed under it!! Cool!!!
The historic Grand Hotel is located on the shore of the island and boasts many movie locations. They have the best fudge ever and ice cream parlour. Weddings are held at the Grand, it’s the best experience in my life.
Mackinac Island is a MUST see you can only get there via Ferry... Beautiful Island and it's gotten much more expensive
You would love MacInaw Island! The Grand Hotel, horse drawn carriages. The history is amazing!
Only see these on RVTV one of TH-cam best channel Hey Russ how are you sir grandkids say hello thanks for sharing take care and travel well my youngest say too cool for school lance and family
The drone shots give a whole different perspective from above. Great drive, thanks Russ.
Russ enjoy the UP. You think the lower peninsula is nice wait to you see the UP. Mackinac Bridge is an engineering feat. On the island, the only vehicles that are allowed are emergency vehicles. People have use to use bicycles, walk, horses, carriages. Ice breakers are common on the Great Lakes. The lakes freeze and the ice breakers are used to keep the shipping lanes open.
Thanks for all your Journeys be safe thanks again for all the all you do
👍 After 150 years, those trees are taller than the light house tower. If only those trees could talk. It would be interesting to hear 150 years worth of stories.
I’ve been waiting for this one. I remember going across the bridge as a teenager.
Old stoppin grounds for my husband and myself for many years. Thank you.
Love seeing boats on the water and reflections...want to paint.😊
When you get to the U.P. you should go to Sault Ste Marie to see the Soo locks. Then you must stop at the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum in Paradise MI. It has a very touching exhibit about the Edmond Fitzgerald. Then you should stop at Tahquamenon Falls State Park, rhymes with phenomenon. Also you need to make a bumper sticker that says 'I stop for story boards.'
Up in the UP the weather is great! Enjoy yourself in Mackinaw
No motorized vehicles on Mackinaw Island. Bicycles, horses, and foot-power only. It’s like stepping back in time to a beautiful Victorian tourist area. Lots of fudge, lots of history and natural beauty.
Very pretty...thanks for sharing your experience. 💛
Welcome to Michigan Russ, to much to see in the UP , we travel it all the time and haven’t seen it all yet .try to get up to Sault Ste. Marie right up your alley .

Hi Russ, great work. I’ve been to Mackinaw City and have the ferry over to the island. I’ve never experienced the long wait times. I think you would enjoy the island. There are no motorized vechicles only horse drawn carriages, bikes or walking.
That looks like a page out of a history book. Gonna have to go there one day.
Love the photography! I spent 3 years of my life going to school there!
🙋♀️Hello Russ! Drone footage of a picturesque Mackinaw Harbor with clear skies & beautiful blue water. 👍
Wow, you are really covering some interesting places this year. Stay safe!
I'm from South of DT, in Downriver area. I get up North every chance I get. I love all the Lake towns n all the way of North towns the best !!!
Russ,
You missed one of my favorite drives up through Harbor Spring to Cross Village. BUMMER you would have loved it!
Beautiful place! I think Ernest Hemingway and his family would vacation there in the Summertime?
Hemingway was in the Walloon Lake area...SW of Mackinaw
@@greyferguson9319 Thank You!
@@greyferguson9319 He spent time in Seney as well.
Excellent video Russ have fun.
Once again a nice videos from you sir well explored and an nice old farm houses.njoy the trip sir👍👍👍❤❤❤
Love Mackinac City and the Bridge. If I every win the Lottery I'm moving up there. Now I just have to visit once or twice a year.
Beautiful sky and amazing trees. Excited to see the bridge. Always curious what it was like. Fun trip.
I was there a few years ago in October…took ferry to Mackinac Island and stayed a few days…fantastic…then crossed Mackinac bridge to Souse St Marie (sp?) to watch ships go through the locks. Anyways it was foggy while crossing the Mackinac Bridge and did not get the full experience and views from the bridge…oh well…better luck next time 😉
Sault Ste Marie
Russ,
While you are in Northern Michigan, you should make plans on seeing the building that houses some of the things from the ore ship, The Edmond Fitzgerald. It sank in Nov of 75 over six fathom schoal area. Gordan Lightfoot made that famous song about it.
You are bringing back some good memories.
Hey Russ!!! "KEEP THE BEAST" A "ROLLING"!!! Be Safe!!!
Really really like that show us where you are, what's there, loads of info compared to those shooting their face with Turbo Babble.!
Russ that is Enbridge line 5 . I travel most those roads weekly. Hope its not windy on the big Mac. Sometimes they close it down .
Gorgeous!!!!
That lighthouse still technically works, but is no longer an aid to navigation. When the Mackinac bridge was built it negated the need for lighthouses in the Straits of Mackinac.
We were there in August 2012. That was a great RV trip.
Nice place.
Have a good day. Nicest weather out there.
Awesome!
Yes, I love Making Island so much !!! If it weren't for too much snow n freezing winters, I would love to live there !!!
I live in Wisconsin, about 5 hrs from here. I love it to and would love to move there in a couple years. It is a special place.
Thank you for the showing!
Holy Mackinaw Russ is up the big phallic symbol between Michigan and Huron, the lakes that is???
Just wanted to say a huge thankyou. I grew up in Michigan and its awesome to experience again
Are u going to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. Anyway..all the best to you. Stay safe and big thanks again.
Simplemente hermoso!!
I am sure you are not still in the U.P., but if you are you need to look for youper stones. If you can get your hands on a black light and go to the beach at night, the stones light up under black light. They are easier to find in the dark.
fantastic video
Gordon lightfoot song - Edmond Fitzgerald relates to the many shipwrecks therbouts.
The ships are often loaded with iron oar to maximum capacity.
I see McGulpin has come a long way since I was last there. I did do the walk down to the water. Bridge is closer to 5 than 4 miles.
From there north,YOU ARE IN GODS COUNTRY!!
Hope you video crossing the Mackinac Bridge.
Thanks for showing us around lake is big
Thank you for all the beautiful video footage, makes me want to go there even more.
I had forgotten all about Mackinaw City! Thanks for the reminder! Got it on my 'wish list' to visit now!
Hello Russ, Mackinaw City is really nice but of you can, you should take the ferry to Mackinac Island. It is absolutely beautiful! No cars allowed so you get around by walking, renting a bike, or taking a horse drawn carriage ride. There is a really cool fort on the hill called Fort Mackinac. You would really like this place. My son and I spent the whole day there. After you leave Mackinaw City you will cross the Straits of Mackinac as you view where Lake Michigan transitions into Lake Huron...So SPECTACULAR! Your next stop should be the Soo Locks in Sault Saint Marie at the Canadian border, and the town is small town America! You have got to view the ships passing through the canal. There is a observation area where you can observe the ships passing. Check it out Russ! Great video👍👍👍👍!
I lived in Michigan near White Fish Point. Near where the Edmond Fitz Gerald went down.
Do you know the Luneacks?
Hey Russ, you forgot to wave!!
Russ this vlog did not do Mackinaw justice. The city is fun to go thru the shops. And I've been there many times & the boats, you move right along in the line.The boats hold a lot of people. Yes it's toristy,but there's a lot to do an see.
You just skipped over everything.
Bridge is 5 miles long
Another great video my friend. I can only hope that I can walk at your clip in 10 years.
My brother is a pilot car driver and follows or escorts over size loads. He uses a van like yours and has a camper living space set up inside of it. I imagine you probably have a similar set up. That would be great if you could share that in a video!
I am so disappointed ☹️ You have missed a bucket list item travel adventure to Macinac Island. You could spend hours exploring the island. Horse drawn carriages are used as people movers to take them around the island to se the beautiful old colourful cottages with the most manicured gorgeous gardens. The famous old hotels are wonderful. You sure missed out on a truly delightful day.
Beautiful drive 👍
dealing with high humidity in Missouri
Not wanting too depress anyone but the great lakes are littered with ship wrecks lying on the bottoms.The lakes can kick butt in bad weather.⚓⚓
Mackinaw Bridge total length is 5 miles long. Also you missed seeing Fort Mackinaw another great spot to visit. Not far from where you were at.
38 for a KOA isn't bad.
Quick tidbit. The Mackinac Bridge isn't 4 miles long. It is four feet short of five miles long.
The Mackinac bridge is 5 miles long :-)
How bout them Mackinaw peaches ??
Another ship wreck is Edmond Fritz Gerald
What’s with all of the utubers going to Michigan at the same time. Nomadic is there also
There having a get together.
Don’t think that was a power station near McGulpin point, that is an oil pipe line that runs under the straits, that is poorly taken care of.
No. Not line 5. It is the sub plant.
Mill Creek campground is way nicer
Mackinaw Island has no vehicles. Horses, bikes.
