> In my experience you stay in St. Ignace and only pay an arm rather than ON the island itself where another leg and both thumbs are thrown in for the cost. Here’s a listing of [B&B](http://www.stignace.com/bed_and_breakfast)s; [here](http://www.stignace.com/hotels)’s hotels. Have fun, you going up for the Lilac Festival?

Staying in Mackinaw City is also an option. I mean, there’s plenty to do in either the UP around St. Ignace or down in the tip of the mitt around Mackinaw, just depends what all you want to do. Though it’s not like you’re totally locked in, either, you can always cross the bridge if there’s stuff on both sides you want to check out.

(I realize the OP’s already been and gone, just wanted to point out another option in general)
