On an island filled with fudge and ice cream shops, Sanders is one of them. That old cliche is…read moretrue: You really could throw a stone on Mackinac Island and hit 10 fudge or ice cream shops. (Is that a cliche? It should be.) And if you don't like fudge or ice cream? Well, you're S.O.L., my friend. Luckily, my kids like ice cream, so we headed to Sanders because it was basically across the street from our hotel. They got a milkshake and a scoop of chocolate ice cream in a cup (their standard orders), and they were happy with their treats. But if you're looking for some other kinds of ice cream treats, they also have sundaes and things of that nature. Sanders also has a whole case of chocolate goodies, like peanut clusters, coconut clusters and pecan clusters (they seem to like their clusters here); chocolate-covered Rice Krispie Treats; truffles and peanut butter cups and toffee; caramel apples; and lots more. Oh, and fudge. But honestly, I would get fudge somewhere else that isn't a chain. There are lots of fudge places on the island. That's the thing: Sanders is a chain. But it's a Michigan chain, and originated in Detroit, so it's kinda local. Nevertheless, it's a good place to pop into to find something sweet to eat.

Not my favorite fudge or peanut brittle on Mackinac Island, but you GOTTA get the Peco Flakes here!…read more Peco Flakes is a bit like coconut brittle to me as it has coconut flakes (as well as peanuts). The texture was still cronchy like brittle but there was something about the coconut that kept me coming back for more. May's Candy Shop didn't really open on time as stated (which was 10:30am but when we walked by at 11am, it was open!) , but hey -- that's island time for ya!

No joke - when I realized there was a Sanders store on Mackinaw Island -- I jumped for joy! I've…read morealways wanted to go to Sanders and I made a point to only purchase me chocolate and fudge (it's a tradition to buy fudge when you come to Mackinaw Island) from Sanders!! The Good: * They make and sell the most delicious chocolate! * Umm...hello!? They have chocolate! * The fudge is super tasty and they will give you a sample if you ask! * Did I mention they have the best chocolate!!?? * Tons of options and a variety of chocolate covered goodies! * They have ice cream! * They even sell Bump cakes (all flavors)! * The service was awesome! The young lady that helped us went above and beyond in locating more Bump cake fudge! She was energetic and Sanders should be happy to have her on their team! The Needs Improvement: * At this time - I have no recommendations that need improvement. Overall: A solid 5 stars! We'll be stopping at Sanders the next time we're on Mackinaw Island and you should too!

Doud's is a small market, but it has lots of stuff. As far as I know, this is one of the only markets on Mackinac Island. There actually is another Doud's down Main Street toward the ferry area, but it's a smaller grab-and-go convenience store, mostly with snacks and coffee. My hotel was right across the street, so I bopped into Doud's a couple of times during my stay, to grab a bottle of wine (they have a decent selection of wine), some candy for my kids, and some fruit because I needed to eat something fresh. The store is tidy and everything is arranged nicely. They also have self-checkout kiosks, so you can get in and out quickly.

Today, the store is known simply as Doud's Market and is run by Andrew Doud, the 4th generation owner.

Today, Doud's is a modern grocery store, with a mom-and-pop feel, offering a wide range of food & household essentials. Shoppers will find fresh produce, fresh-cut meats, prepared items like whitefish dip, chicken pot pie, subs, homemade pizza, & salads. The cherry chicken salad & cherry chicken salad wrap are customer favorites. The store also features a variety of baked goods, along with a comprehensive selection of wine, beer, and spirits.

You can really smell the chocolate goodness wafting from the store. They were letting a new batch cool some on the counter.
