The butterfly house is a very unique attraction. The managers are very into it and very friendly. They have a great collection. There are lots butterflies, a great insect display, and a nice gift shop. Its just outside of town. Its worth the short walk. more

After paying a fee you enter a beautiful greenhouse filled with over 400 butterflies. There are benches for you to sit on if you would like to sit and relax as you watch the butterflies. There are cool facts along the way. I found it very peaceful and would love to go back! more

We took our three children ages 2, 4, and 6 and they really enjoyed it. Its was little pricey for the five of us but whats not pricey on Mackinaw Island right? The bug exhibit when you walk out of the butterfly house doors was REALLY cool too. more

Not something I'd highly recommend doing while on the island-I see the island... more

We returned this week from a wonderful two night stay on Mackinac Island. The Butterfly House was offered as an add-on to the carriage tour. It was well worth the extra money, ($5.50 I think). When you enter the conservatory, butterflies are alight everywhere. An amazing variety, color and size. Great photo opportunities! And, informative plagues that explain so much... more

It doesn't cost much to get in and if you keep your receipt, you can keep going back for free the rest of your stay on the island. I considered going back a second time while we were there, but I never... more
