    I want to put Jack Barnwell in my pocket like a Tomagotchi… and just wrap him up in a blanket. How sweet is he? Thanks for the tour and thanks for your heart. I’m sure the owners were so thankful for your help in their time of distress.

    Jack is a magical worker! The more I see his work, the more I marvel at his craftsmanship! The brickwork and vision behind it felt like a finely crafted sari border! Keep it up and let us create a piece of your dream and weave it in our own gardens!

    Jenny and Jerry, as locals of Mackinac County (across the bay from Mackinac Island in St Ignace) it was so much fun to meet both of you and have you in our 'neck of the woods'. This is a wonderful place to live, and one of the privileges is having so many people come to our area to visit. Brigadoon is such a wonderful cottage, and it was my honor to be a volunteer there for the garden tours. Thanks again for being so approachable. Your Pollinators session was great. Keep up the good work.

    Words can hardly express the joy of watching this beautiful video. To see gardens of this magnitude and grandeur in person is a privilege to be cherish! I have a small garden paradise of my own, that I’m proud of, so I can only imagine the pride that Jack has in his stunning garden creations! Thank you, Jenny and Jerry for all your hard work to bring such joy to all of us gardeners!

    I absolutely loved the look on Jack's face when you were telling him the Southern version of why we paint Haint blue ceilings ... and then he proceeds to tell the Northern version was to keep the bugs & birds off - I found it quite humerous and very endearing - hahaha !!! Thanks to y'all (Jerry, Jenny & Jack) for sharing this wonderful adventure with us - I never tire of the Mackinac garden tours and the info, encouragement and inspiration you all bring along

    I had to leave another comment, because I am binge watching this video today. 😁🌿💮 There's just something about the rapport between Jenny and Jack, the history of the home, the current state of the grounds after the magnitude of the renovation...I mean, the other videos I've seen this week were lovely (especially the tour of the Grand Hotel 🤩), but this one is the BEST! This one made me add Mackinac Island to my destination bucket list.
    And now I'm going to hit repeat for a fourth time... 🥰

    Wow…I’m from Savannah Ga. the Deep South low country and have never heard about the spirit crossing over? Our story is the same as Jacks! It prevents bugs and birds from settling in with the illusion of a sky and it definitely helps. I’ll have to check into the spirit story, interesting. Mackinaw Island is dreamy! It the land before time! So very whimsical and just breathtaking! Love touring the private cottages with y’all! Jack is definitely a master at his craft and just precious and nice on the eyes to boot! So glad they were able to preserve so much history of the house! 💕

You asked great questions and gave Jack an opportunity to give a concise answer without talking over him. I'm sure he appreciated you letting him shine as he is so good at what he does. What a delightful tour of this beautiful home. Thanks for letting us come along with you. I have been to Mackinac in the past, but now I plan on going to next year's Grand Garden Show and hope you will be there as well. 🌺🌼🥀

You both shined in this interview and seemed so comfortable with each other. Jack is a joy. His impeccable design work creates a Mackinac Island paradise. I live in Michigan and I am so grateful that Mackinac Island continues to preserve its character, architecture and charm. I visit every year in all different seasons. The gardens are the highlight of my trips no matter which season. I have seen the tulips, the lilacs, the peonies and the hydrangea all blooming spectacularly.

    I remember touring this property in 2019 for my first Grand Garden trip to Mackinac Island. I took loads of pictures and I believe this is the house where they gave an inside tour of the bottom level. All I can say is what a blessing to be apart of such a magical, beautiful town. For Jack to have grown up here as a boy. I can only imagine what a life he had as a child and now to live this life as a awesome designer and landscaper. I do this for a living as well (on a much smaller scale of course) but this was a treat to see and hear this tour from you Jenny. From a different prospective. Thank you.
