Hello

I am a Michigan girl through and through. I grew up in West Michigan. My parents grew up in West Michigan. My husband grew up in West Michigan. And now we are raising our two fun-loving, energetic kids in….. West Michigan. It is a great place to call home. 

While we love Michigan, travel is also a top priority. I am filled with fond memories of warm spring break vacations and summer road trips to the East Coast with my family. There were even a few Europe trips in the mix. There is a almost always sense of restlessness that settles in if we haven’t traveled in a while. Sometimes the destinations may seem exciting to readers while other times they may seem mundane. I believe there is beauty in every new (and old) place we happen upon. Whatever the case may be, I hope that you find this blog somewhat helpful and at the very least a bit entertaining.

Mackinaw Road is a compilation of all of our travel adventures and the subsequent travel-related design inspiration that naturally occurs on each trip. We are constantly striving toward incorporating our travel into our design be it through an object, artwork, a book, or just an overall feeling of place. We are constantly (and slowly) updating our 1920s Colonial Home and our 1900’s Beach Cabin to bring our trip experiences into the overall ambiance of our residences.

Now that we are acquainted, join me and follow along with our simple luxuries travel and creative design ideas on Instagram and Pinterest.
