Lovable Michigan Travel Deals: A chalet escape, a Lilac Festival vacation

Sometimes you need a vacation to be uncomplicated. You want to arrive, put down your bag, and have a list of options at your fingertips, with everything already included. That’s how we feel about the two deals we found for you this week. One puts you right in the middle of a quintessential Michigan tourist experience on Mackinac Island, while the other lands you slopeside at Boyne Mountain, a four-season resort where summertime is all about play-relax-repeat.

Here are the deals:

Getaway for 2 at Chalet Edelweiss at Boyne Mountain Resort

Boyne Mountain has lots of cool lodging options, but we have to admit that their Nordic-inspired Chalet Edelweiss that was renovated at the base of a ski slope is our favorite space at this Northern Michigan resort. It’s set apart from the other buildings, but it’s just a short walk to the “village” area with its shops, restaurants and bars. And inside, it has a sauna and cozy living room area that feels like it was lifted straight from the Alps.

While this 15% off deal is being billed as “Rekindle the Romance,” you can also take your bestie – or just go hang out with yourself if you need a little R&R (no judgement – we’ve been there).

“Crave a summer filled with fresh air, breathtaking views, and cozy evenings by the fire pit? Look no further than Chalet Edelweiss, your romantic escape nestled in the heart of Boyne Mountain,” resort staff said. “This charming European-inspired chalet offers the perfect setting to reconnect with your love in the heart of Northern Michigan.”

“Indulge in complimentary yoga classes to stretch your bodies and minds, or explore the mountain trails on complimentary bike rentals. In the evening, soothe your muscles in the ritual of the Nordic Cirque Sauna – the perfect way to end a perfect day. Book your summer Getaway for Two and save 15% off King Rooms in Chalet Edelweiss.”
