The Grand Hotel is a historic hotel and coastal resort located on Mackinac Island, Michigan in USA. Constructed in the late 19th century, it has the world's largest porch. The Grand Hotel is well known for a number of notable visitors, including five U.S. presidents, Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin, Russian president Dmitri Medvedev, inventor Thomas Edison, and author Mark Twain. Grand Hotel's front porch is purportedly the longest in the world at some 660 feet (200 m) in length, overlooking a vast Tea Garden and the resort-scale Esther Williams swimming pool. Carleton Varney, Dorothy Draper's protege, designed the Grand Hotel in its late 19th century decor including its Pelargonium geraniums. No two of the 385 guest rooms are designed alike. Six suites are named for and designed by six former First Ladies of the United States. The hotel is owned by R.D. (Dan) Musser III. In 1957, the Grand Hotel was designated a State Historical Building. In 1972, the hotel was named to the National Register of Historic Places, and on June 29, 1989, the hotel was made a National Historic Landmark.
