Mackinac Island, Michigan
Charming Mackinac Island is a throwback to old-timey seaside leisure, from the candy-colored facades of downtown shops to the impressive (record-breaking, in fact) front porch of the Victorian-era Grand Hotel. Mackinac is world-famous for its homemade fudge, available in every flavor you can imagine. Work off your sugar high with a round of golf, a bike ride along a seaside trail, or exploring the limestone bluffs of Mackinac Island State Park.

The Grand Hotel is as mysterious as it is magnetic. Overlooking the wild Lake Huron waters, this Victorian-era resort looks like something straight out of the pages of an Agatha Christie novel. And it’s stories are certainly worthy.
