Really surprising to see a portion of the war that far north
Really surprising to see a portion of the war that far north
My neighbor just came down from there this past weekend. He had relatives up fron Virginny. They didn't go to the fort but did go to the island. He said it costs 20 bucks for access. A bit steep for 4 retirees.

It's 20 bucks if your a couple,, and paying for both. and 40 if your a pair of couples.Eh...its not 20 to get into the fort I paid 10 I think this summer, maybe if you add on the ferry ride to get to island. Also when you buy a ticket to tour the fort you're also buying a ticket to tour other historical buildings in the village. Some of which date back to War of 1812 and before. Oh yeah and military/veteran discounts do apply

Twas 4 retirees.Like I said thats not bad considering youre still allowed to wander around the entire island, and that pays for other sites as well, visiting Fort Holmes doesnt cost a dime, visiting the Battle of Mackinac battlefield (which is partially a golf course) is free...Just doesnt seem like a bad deal to me. Its cheaper than a ferry ride & admission ticket to Fort Sumter. But if moneys tight or you're paying for a large group I guess I'd understand if you didnt wanna spend the money.
NFB22,
This is one site that I am determined to visit one day.
Hey UB, I realize this is an old post but if you do come this way, let me know and maybe we can do lunch.Poor Private,
Still think it would be worth the price to see the island and the fort.
Getting itchy feet, I guess, and I could use the road trip.
Sincerely,
Unionblue
