Things to do in Mackinac Island
Mackinac Island sits in the Straits of Mackinac between Michigan’s two peninsulas, and it has been a summer resort since the late 19th century. Motor vehicles have been banned for more than a century, so visitors get around by horse-drawn carriage, bicycle or on foot, past Victorian cottages, a historic fort and a downtown of fudge shops. Most of the island is a state park, and tourism is essentially the entire economy, from the Grand Hotel and other inns to carriage tours and restaurants.
- 01
Grand Hotel
Opened in 1887, this landmark hotel is famous for its long front porch overlooking the straits, its formal dress code in the evening and its manicured gardens.
- 02
Fort Mackinac
Perched on a bluff above the harbor, this restored 18th- and 19th-century fort offers costumed interpreters, cannon and rifle firings and sweeping views.
- 03
Arch Rock
This natural limestone arch rises about 150 feet above the shoreline, and its overlook is one of the most photographed spots on the island.
- 04
M-185 Shoreline Road
The road circling the island runs about eight miles along the water, and because cars are banned it is enjoyed by cyclists, walkers and carriages.
- 05
Main Street Fudge Shops
The island’s fudge makers pour and paddle their candy on marble slabs in shop windows, a tradition that has made “fudgies” the local word for tourists.
- 06
Mackinac Bridge
Visible from the island, this five-mile suspension bridge links Michigan’s two peninsulas and is one of the longest suspension bridges in the world.
