Mackinac Island is a county equivalent in the state of Michigan. However, it is not connected to the rest of Michigan by land because it is situated in the waters of Lake Huron. The island is located in Lake Huron’s St. Marys River, which separates it from the rest of the Lower Peninsula. The town is best known for its Victorian architecture, horse-drawn carriages, and fudge.
It is a popular tourist destination in the summer, accessible by ferry. The island boasts many interesting attractions, including Fort Mackinac and Mission Point Resort. There are also many historic buildings, fine dining establishments, and shops to visit during your stay.
Fort Mackinac: If you have a passenger vehicle along with you on your trip, it’s worth un-hooking the trailer and storing it for long enough to check out Fort Mackinac, which offers a fascinating look at Michigan’s past. For instance, the fort was constructed in 1780 as part of an effort to keep Native Americans from encroaching on British territory. This is also where U.S. troops assembled before heading off to fight in the War of 1812. The fort is also home to Michigan’s oldest building.
Arch Rock is a natural rock formation that rises from the waters off Mackinac Island's shore. Some say it looks like a giant whale; others liken it to a gargoyle or an elephant. The arch is part of the National Lakeshore, which also includes Fort Mackinac and Fort Holmes.
