    Hi Nicole! The weather on Mackinac Island at that time of the year will likely be cool (forties and fifties) and blustery. I was there in mid October last year and the trees had already lost all their leaves. It will be very quiet as the bulk of the busy tourist season ends early in September. If none of this bothers you, then it might be a good place for a honeymoon. I spent this past weekend on Mackinac Island and it was sunny with temps in the fifties. I love the island! If you t go for your HM definitely consider a trip some other time. Let me know if you have any questions.

    Much of the Island will be closed by that time of the year. And the weather is very hard to predict. I live on the mainland about twenty minutes south of the Island. My wedding is October 22nd. I have to keep reminding people that it could be 70 & gorgeous or it could be snowing. Two years ago, we had a big snowfall mid-October. Last year, we had a beautiful October. But here's a website on the Island. Good luck!

    All of the cute shops will be closed on the island by then as well as all the shops in Mackinac City. Its still a beautiful place to go and visit but in terms of entertainment there won't be much. In the summer time you can rent bikes while on the island but all that stuff typically ends around Labor Day. I would recommend coming at a time when the island is more open and I promise you will love every minute of it then!!
