  • Skyview Cottage ~ this appropriately named cottage tucked into the deep cedar forest of Mackinac has a stunning view over looking the straits of Mackinac. Join Jack as he walks us through some of the restoration projects that he and the Mackinac Landscape and Garden Crew have accomplished over the the years.

    So beautiful! Ha, ha, Jack, i can tell you are a true gardener, because you have a hard time walking through the garden without trimming things, pulling weeds, and picking up stick and debris!!☺ My family gets irritated with me when we go for a stroll in the garden, because I can barely resist doing that! 🙄

    The ground cover is gorgeous walking up the drive. Love the late blooming hydrangeas. Such a small sweet cottage; agree that more time to LIVE and less time to maintain is so desirable. Efforts to sustain the gorgeous view is admirable. Cheers

    What a Gorgeous garden. You guys did some really nice work on that place, one would never know you put new pathways in. Hope you get hazardous pay to trim that hedge.

  • @janicebrowningaquino792

    Me TOO! I smiled to myself when he did that because it is the same for those of us who garden, there is always something that needs doing/tweaking. So Jack-how did I know? When you came upon the water view area, I knew instantly that you love the cottage, and the view of course! If wishing made it so I wish it were yours because your love for it is so obvious! Thank you for the tour it was beautiful 😊. Oh, by the way, along the ocean shoreline here in Seacoast NH we have many areas of rugosa roses, it’s where I first experienced them-SO fragrant. I enjoy many many different plants but I must admit, roses will always be my favorite. Isn’t it hard to believe it’s already September?
