10Mackinac Island, Michigan
Once the location of the Odawa settlement, Mackinac (pronounced–oddly enough– “Mackinaw”) Island is a popular summer stop for residents of the state of Michigan. Situated in Lake Huron, between Michigan’s Upper and Lower Peninsulas, it’s a resort area spanning 4.35 square miles. In 1960, the entire isle was declared a National Historic Landmark.
You can only get there by ferry as no automobiles are allowed here. Most visitors ride bicycles if they wish to tour the island. Stay at the Grand Hotel where they shot the 1980 movie Somewhere In Time. Don’t miss the local fudge either!
