Mackinac Island is a picturesque island holiday spot where time has stopped. This peaceful island in Michigan's Upper Peninsula is only accessible by boat, and there are no automobiles, so visitors enjoy the simplicity of riding bicycles and meandering around residential streets. Kayaking and horseback riding, and a sunset boat tour across the Mackinac Bridge are among the activities available on Mackinac Island.

Nowadays, the island is known for its beautiful Victorian-era architecture, the Grand Hotel being the undisputed main attraction. Visitors may discover a variety of vintage stores and restaurants around its picturesque old ferry dock. You may sample some of the island's world-famous fudge, see historical sites like Fort Mackinac, and explore the island's state park, which comprises more than 80 percent of the island.
