  • Check out the gorgeous garden walkways at one of my favorite locations on Mackinac Island. The Hotel Iroquois and I have been working and scheming over the last year or two for this incredible transformation. We ripped up the entire patio so they could install a beautiful dock, but it's all brand new and finally complete.. Watch this video as we take you on a tour and show you what it used to look like. I love my job!!!

    This place is like a dream, and there couldn’t be a better designer for it than Jack. He radiates love and respect for Mackinac, and it comes across in every project he does. Sheer perfection. ❤️

    The talent is "all in the family". What a stunning design for the dock, the boxes and deck. What a gorgeous way to arrive to the hotel. Cheers and thank you

    The new dock is stunning! I'd love to see tours of the private gardens that aren't open to the general public, for those of us unable to get to the Grand Garden Show this year.

    I found your channel via Garden Answer, but it wasn’t until I’d watched your videos that I felt brave enough to use a riot of colours like I see on your tours. My front garden is already looking great, but my neighbours don’t know what’s going to hit them!
    I wonder if your brother knows how proud you are of him, we hear it every time you speak about his work - what an amazing set of skills you both have, creative, thoughtful and artistic

    We just came home from Mackinac yesterday. It was on my bucket list to actually stay on the island this time instead of a day visit. We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary there and at the top of my list was to see the Iroquois and see all your incredible work in person. No video or photo can do it justice. Absolutely gorgeous Jack!

    Jack dear, so soothing the sound is in the background of the water splashing up on the rocks & shore. The Iroquois looks so incredible compared to years ago, when I was there. The entire island is really going through some upgrades, and it is looking stunning.
    [2] When you head down to North Carolina, I hope you surprise visit Jerry & Jenny at Creekside Nursery, and give them some JackMagic incentives. such nice folks! Their new Atlas is a MUST SEE. I can't wait to get mine built like this one,, only hopefully mine will be double that size for year round [far to table] growing. Thank you for your hard work, and videos showing us all what your up to.

    Hotel Iroquois is looking fantastic - I appreciated seeing the stunning walkway up to the Carriage House and the shrub and flower border around the grass. Choosing to put flowers on both sides of boxwoods was brilliant. I enjoy your videos especially when you visit private gardens on Mackinac Island and I'm interested in the projects your doing in North Carolina and Kentucky.

    @whrhs1978 Před rokem +2

    I appreciate the huge amount of work put into this and the practicality of having everyone on one side for the serving staff but personally I liked the garden better before without everyone being pushed together to one side. It gave a more exclusive feel when dining.
    That’s my personal opinion.
    The back pier is awesome!
    Jack as always is a fantastic, artistic gardener!
