My Front Porch is so welcoming and the gift selection is plenty…read more Tucked away on Market St, My Front Porch offers so many quirky gifts and knickknacks. Each room is wall to wall filled with different finds that everyone will enjoy. I especially enjoyed the room filled with so many things for dog lovers. Hundreds of different keychains with various sayings or names on them. I have 3 dogs at home -- Ellie, Lexie and Charlie. Loved seeing their names on a keychain. I had two of my dogs with me for this trip. My dog, Charlie, ended up sitting outside and howling for me to come back. The ladies in the shop got a good laugh about it! I also picked up some Christmas presents while stopping in. Like I said, there's a gift for everyone here! Take the time to really enjoy it!

Why do I keep seeing racks of socks in so many stores. Is this a thing, that wasn't before?…read more It's fun to look at, but I know well after having so many Blue Q socks that they don't last long and wear thin and get holes quickly. The socks are the main things that caught our eye, or the Michigan periodic table T-shirt, two types of TP install and the emotional baggage bag as well.

This store is so much fun!…read more It's not Mackinac Island oriented per se... they did have Michigan stuff ... mostly a general gift oriented store. Lots of what I'd call, stocking stuffer things. Fun, snarky or unique gifts.... small and large. It's on the main shopping street of Mackinac Island... but a tad hidden. You have to walk into a tunnel/walkway back towards the giant turtle. Folks working here are friendly and quick to help.
