Mackinac Island, Michigan

In May, Mackinac Island is one of the greatest places to visit. Visiting this wonderful Michigan site is like traveling back in time to a quaint and charming location full of romance. Guests may enjoy the island's magnificently flowered gardens and landscapes without the annoyance of the summer crowds.

You'll need to take a boat from Mackinaw City or St. Ignace to get here. Prepare to leave your car once you arrive. Because cars are not permitted on Mackinac Island, you will have to go by horse and carriage, bicycle, or foot throughout your visit. Relax in an Adirondack chair and enjoy the cool breeze off Lake Huron. Smell the lilac trees that are just beginning to blossom. As the official tourist season begins, see the hundreds of gardens that are being planted. The month of May is a great time to visit Mackinac Island State Park, which you can do on horseback or on foot.
