Description
You’re invited to Grand Hotel’s 13th Annual History Weekend with a unique look into the story behind the wood structure built in 1887.
Saturday morning begins with a fascinating journey through the history of Mackinac Island and Grand Hotel with Bob Tagatz, Grand Hotel’s Resident Historian. Then, take part in a special history presentation later in the afternoon. Plus, enjoy a welcome reception and breakfast and dinner daily.
Fall is a great time of year to experience the solitude of Mackinac Island and Grand Hotel. We hope to see you for this special event to celebrate the history of Grand Hotel.
Bob Tagatz, Resident Historian at Grand Hotel
Mr. Tagatz, named an Historic Hotels of America Historian of the Year, is a natural storyteller. He will intrigue you with information about the hotel’s history and how the Island and the hotel came to be what they are today.
