Fort Mackinac
This is Mackinac. The cannon blasts, the rifles fire, the soldiers march and history comes alive. The oldest building in Michigan and 13 other historical structures boast exhibits explaining everything from military training and battles to medical treatments to family life within the fort. More than just a military outpost, Fort Mackinac served as a home for soldiers and their families and eventually the headquarters for Mackinac National Park, where tourists to the island visited the great fortress on the bluff, much like they do today.

The Richard & Jane Manoogian Mackinac Art Museum
Be inspired. Nowhere else does such a rare and exceptional collection of Mackinac-related art and photography come together to tell Mackinac’s story. In complement to the natural beauty of Mackinac Island, The Richard and Jane Manoogian Mackinac Art Museum allows visitors to experience fine and decorative arts inspired by Mackinac through the ages. One of the most diverse art museums in the region, the museum’s collection offers no shortage of beauty and history – from hand-beaded Native American garments and 17th and 18th-century maps of the Great Lakes, to one-of-a-kind pieces from the height of Mackinac Island’s Victorian era. Original photographs from the mid-19th to the mid-20th century present the beauty of Mackinac as captured by the camera’s eye. Featured are the works of William H. Gardiner, including dozens of his famed early-twentieth century hand-tinted views. #thisismackinac

Biddle House
A Time of Change. Step into the home of Agatha and Edward Biddle, merchants who moved in around 1830. This was a time of change, and the 1830s were critical to the Biddles for another reason: as an Anishnaabek woman, Agatha and other indigenous people witnessed their culture subjected to immense changes. The decade transformed the Anishnaabek, linking old ways with Michigan’s modern indigenous culture. The continuing story of the Anishnaabek of northern Michigan is not always a happy one. It is a story of battles won and lost, promises made and broken, and cultures repressed and resurgent. Most importantly, the story in which the Biddle family played a role is one that continues today. This new exhibit, created in conjunction with tribal partners, explores that story and how it still resonates on Mackinac Island and throughout northern Michigan.#thisismackinac

It's quite a hike up the ramp to get to this fort on the bluff, but the views are great and it's got a lot to see - barracks, various outbuildings, and there are frequent demonstrations on the parade grounds. We got there just in time for a rifle shooting display, and later there was a period-dressed docent talking about the history of the Fort and the National Park (now a State Park). There's also a daily cannon firing ceremony which my son LOVED witnessing. Depending on your interest in this stage of history, it maybe a bit long/dull. After awhile I found some of the exhibits glazing over. There is one building which has a more kid friendly area and interactive exhibits (fife and drum, costumes, etc). My older son is a bit more interested in history than me so I think he enjoyed it a little more than I did! After a few hours it was getting hot and I was ready to head back. But this - and the other historic buildings you get access to with Fort admission - are definitely worth a visit and learning about the interesting history of the island. We also had lunch at the Tea Room which has a great view and pretty good (expensive) food.

Thank you for the wonderful review! There is certainly a lot to see and do inside the fort, and we're glad you were able to experience quite a bit of it. Tickets are good for in-and-out entry on the same day as well, and, like you mentioned, include several other buildings as well. We're always adding to our offerings, so we hope to see you again soon!

It was good, nice displays, a few re-enactors while we were there, clean. I guess we've seen a lot of stuff from the time period, so we went through pretty quickly. Would have liked to have gotten something at the restaurant, but it closes at three, fyi.

Thank you for taking the time to review, and we're glad you enjoyed your visit to Fort Mackinac! The Tea Room Restaurant serves lunches from 11am-3pm, but is open 9:30am-7pm in the summer months serving snacks and beverages. Thank you!

Loved the fort and the history lesson. Very impressed by the Boy Scout presence, being a Scout mom. Definitely worth your time!
