This video is so professional. I felt like I was watching a segment from "This Old House." I can't believe how young and knowledgeable he is. And have his own landscape buisness with 200 customers. I could live in that little cottage that was shown at 16:30.
Somehow in my binge watching GA i missed these tours with Jack Barnwell, WOW!!!!! What a life he is living preserving such beauty and continuing to make it beautiful! You can tell his genuine love for the island! Definitely a bucket list location!!!
How beautiful, just the fact that the homes are so well preserved coupled with those beautiful gardens. They truly don't build 'em like that anymore. Love the shaded path and steps in the first house, just like a forest from a fairytale.
Wow! Thank you so much to Jack Barnwell and yourself for touring us through such beautiful gardens! I would love to see them personally. He is definitely a talented landscaper!!!
Wow! What a treat to get a tour of the yards of two of cottages. I loved hearing about the history and culture of the Island. It's now on my bucket list.
wow...this stroh cottage garden is way much better than the garden hotel. so nice. Fantastic job by this Jack Barnwell company. It's done so seamlessly...
Oh my God!!! This is just stunning!!! They created the landscape in a way that you think it's been there for ever!!! Jack and his team made an amazing job!!! It's like you have time traveled 120 years ago!!! Thank you for the video Laura and Aaron!!! By the way I love that little belly!!! Greetings from Greece!!!
Spectacular tour Jack, Laura and Aaron. What beauty you've brought to those gardens Jack. Certainly a thrill to see it all put together. Strikingly impressive how it's all put together. Thank you!
Wow, what a breathtaking view all around! I never thought about all the maintenance required for the homes in such severe cold! Thank you for the tour!
This video is everything! The camera angles, the interview, the tour, the host and most specially the garden! I wish I could wake up there everyday ❤❤❤
OMG!!! How beautiful. A lot of fascinating info in such a small grand tour. He was great to listen to. Will definitely need to visit there some day. Thanks so much Laura and Aaron for a great job.
Okay, so we went to Mackinaw Island because of this video. My husband and I grew up in MI but now live in NC. We still have family in the lower Peninsula but wanted to see the Upper Peninsula. We stopped at this house on Mackinaw Island and took pictures!! I was so excited! REALLY beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration!!
I need Jack Barnwell in my life. Thank you laura and Aaron for showing and letting us know more about the island and Jack for all the great information he gave to you and us. Ohh and Proven Winners. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the tour! I live in London, England but my husband is from northern Wisconsin and has relatives in Michigan's UP. I've not ventured there so it's lovely to see northern Michigan.
vishu singh probably a typical guy, like to know what his wife would share about those things when you actually have to live with him. I am married to a really good looking guy and almost everyday I look at him and roll my eyes & tell him "if all those ladies only knew!!!"
Goodness - Talk about Paradise on Earth, so so lovely! - Wonderful tour. Thanks so much for sharing this Laura and Jack. All Good Blessings to the two of you - Barbara White
Aw this is the video I wanted to see, I got busy with family things and missed a few months....but these gardens are gorgeous! Outstanding!! I would love to live there...except for the cold winters. I love that they use animals and not cars, when I was a child this would have been my dream place. But now that I'm older, I'm not so sure I could stand the winters.
I need to move into a cooler climate so I could have a garden like that. Absolutely stunning. I live in the desert of California where it got to 115 this summer. Yesterday was 110 degrees cooled off to 100 at 10:00 last night. I'm planning my move as I write.
you are in my neck of the woods. We are heading up to our cottage tomorrow which is a little over an hour south of Mackinac Island. The island is such a special place and something Michigan is very proud of .
Thank you for taking us on tours of other gardens! I find fresh inspiration from each one! I love your garden and how we get to see it take shape project to project, and season to season but there is also enjoyment to be found in touring "finished" gardens!
This was so enjoyable. It's fantastic what Jack Barnwell has created there. I enjoyed learning the story about the properties and it's really hard to believe that the landscaing he put in at the Stroh house is only a few years old. We have a similar landscape zone mix but this is a tad bit colder. It's amazing how well the hydrangeas do considering the harshness of the winters there. I'm in Traverse City and have worked to create a flow with my plants as we walk along the garden path to our patio area and found some great inspiration from his work. Thank you for showing this!
Love, Love the Island!!! My dream was to visit it. I will never forget how beautiful it is. I spent a lot of time walking by these gorgeous homes ❤️ Of course the Grand Hotel is amazing too. Thank you so much for your wonderful tour. Now I want to go back. Kind of hard as I’m in California. Maybe someday.
Thank you for sharing the beauty of this island. It is breathtaking beautiful. Can't image how many people it takes to maintain this. I know you also enjoyed your visit there and got lots of ideas for home. Another wonderful video..
That is so, so interesting! And it's so nice to see people so much into their work, not only in this video, but other Tous too. Young people, who obviously love what they do, and really have something to say about it. Sorry for my english, I know it's not perfect, but I do hope you understand what I mean.
Amazing tour! Jack is so passionate and I loved hearing the history of the cottage and garden. I remember this cottage from last year's tour because it was my favourite and wanted to see more of it. Thank you!
Hi, Laura, This second tour was amazing what a beautiful place to live, work or vidit, the island is so well preserved, this was a treat, we saw your mind working, we think you and Aaron, will be putting in a waterfall, sometime soon. Say, hi to Aaron for us he took great footage of everything, it was like being there, T and I just loved it, hope you rested, the latter part of the day, be well, thanks for sharing.Blessings! !!!!!!!
I think the waterfall company should send you a kit for free! After all he mentioned them by name, we'd all love to see one being built! All 207,000 subscribers
This was a wonderful guest tour guide! Very knowledgeable and so easy on the eyes! I would love to hear his favorite 10 plants and have some video clips.
Beautiful!!! Mackinaw Island is a very special place to me - we got married and had our reception at the Grand Hotel. Red Geraniums and lilac always remind me of that very special day.
I'm so pleased to have found your channel. I started by watching your demonstration of planting bulbs. Excellent tour of this stunning landscaped properties. Makes one want to visit! Thank You.
Wow! Absolutely gorgeous!! Its crazy they did all that by hand! I love all the detail in the old cottages, what a stunning place to live. It's so cool they get around with horses and bikes. Thank you for sharing this, Laura and Jack! I had never heard of Mackinaw Island before, I definitely want to visit someday!
Mackinac Island is so amazing . You can ride a bike around the island or cut through the middle of it. There are horses to rent, carriage rides, and an old military fort-there is another fort in Mackinaw City. There are several old buildings of historical significants you can tour. The island is famous for their horses and homemade fudge.
Everything is so beyond beautiful!!!! I loved the tour!! Thank you!! I am curious as to how they mow all of those beautiful lawns without gas powered mowers or tractors. Also, I hope you and Aaron do install one of those waterfalls!!! I would love to see the process from start to finish!! Again, thank you!!
That was a beautiful tour and such a beautiful place. I was from Michigan, it's a beautiful state the farther up you go the more beautiful it gets. Never was to the island though but definitely going to go!
I admire someone that has passion for his or her work. You also did a great job of not upstaging him but rather added to the tour gracefully.
You work so well with Jack.....you NEVER try to out shine him. You are just an amazing lady!!!
I think I’m watching him more than the gardens ❤️
😂😂😂😂
I was just thinking that. I’ve never seen such a handsome gardener. He has a nice smile. Lol! Sorry Laura I promise I’m listening to you lol.
Haha
🙈🥰
what gardens?? HAHAHA
What an expert in Jack Barnwell!!!! Both of you together speaking is a wealth of information! Thank you!!!!!

This video is what introduced me to Laura and GA!
How beautiful, just the fact that the homes are so well preserved coupled with those beautiful gardens. They truly don't build 'em like that anymore. Love the shaded path and steps in the first house, just like a forest from a fairytale.
Jack Barnwell is on his way to becoming a "National Treasure", I always love seeing what him and his team do. Thanks for sharing.
I'm getting a glass of wine tonight, throwing this up on the big screen and watching for hours, all the tours. I'm loving this
They made the landscape look like it's been there forever.
Wow! Thank you so much to Jack Barnwell and yourself for touring us through such beautiful gardens! I would love to see them personally. He is definitely a talented landscaper!!!

I live here in Michigan and been visiting Mackinac Island for many years. Every time I go I see something new. It’s a beautiful Island.
Spectacular tour Jack, Laura and Aaron. What beauty you've brought to those gardens Jack. Certainly a thrill to see it all put together. Strikingly impressive how it's all put together. Thank you!
Wow, what a breathtaking view all around! I never thought about all the maintenance required for the homes in such severe cold! Thank you for the tour!
How wonderful to see such a young guy with so much knowledge and love and interest for the property.
Aww Jack is so precious!
Ok...he's adorable & fun how passionate he is about flowers & gardening. The cottage gardens are amazing. Great tour...
Just amazing! Thank you for sharing! You can tell he is very, very passionate about his work.
Just breathtaking. Who could imagine living in such beauty?
Thanks for sharing! My sister took my Mom and Dad there back in the 80's and they loved it then too. Such a Beautiful place.
This video is everything! The camera angles, the interview, the tour, the host and most specially the garden! I wish I could wake up there everyday ❤❤❤

We stopped at this house on Mackinaw Island and took pictures!!
I was so excited! REALLY beautiful!
Thanks for the inspiration!!
Wowoweeee....I enjoyed this garden tour!
That is absolutely stunning and so colorful for the zone 4!!! I like how they played with all shades of greens in the landscape... pretty clever!
Laura, thanks for taking us on such a beautiful tour. The Gardens are absolutely breathtaking. I can't stop watching the video.
That is the most beautiful garden I have ever seen ! What a dream it would be to have a yard like this. Kudos to the landscaping team, simply amazing!

Very handsome and polite man, thanks Laura.
Wow. Dream job. Stunning doesn't even do justice.
I so want to go to this place one day,, It is gorgeous. He made even the coldest days there sound inviting talking about hybernating with a good book.
Wow my mind is blown! What a unique place with unique gardens. For some reason it reminds my of Anne of Green Gables.

The most beautiful tour I've ever seen. I remember visiting the island as a girl. Living in Wisconsin a revisit is on my to do list.
Lovely break from difficult hurricane news.
OMG !! Thank you, Thank you, for showing us those beautiful Gardens and scenery love, love, it .. Made my day and took me back in time😀🌸🌸
Beautiful! I love the combination of the reds and purples in this garden.
I think he gets so much business because he’s so cute on top of being a landscaping rockstar just seals the deal
Wow! Absolutely gorgeous!! Its crazy they did all that by hand! I love all the detail in the old cottages, what a stunning place to live. It's so cool they get around with horses and bikes.

Also, I hope you and Aaron do install one of those waterfalls!!! I would love to see the process from start to finish!! Again, thank you!!
They have no cars on the island. They use power lawnmowers.
This took my breath away!!!
What an amazing garden. Absolutely stunning thanks for taking the time to show us. I absolutely love this video.
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour! Wow. Beautiful garden and stories about the island.
That was so beautiful! I've always wanted to visit there and now I really want to go! Thank you for showing us!
What a treat! Love the tour. Wish I have the vision of making landscapes so beautiful.
That was was beautiful- l would love to see more cottage garden tours. The tour guide was very interesting. Thanks for sharing the island.
Breath taking 💕💕😊
I grew up on the west bluff with family friends- cottage all the way at the top of the hill ❤️
One of the best tours! Thank you for sharing it with us.
That's got to be be some really fresh air you would be breathing in.
