Everyone has a favorite vacation spot. Just thinking about this vacation spot automatically just makes people happy. For me, my favorite place up until this point in my life is Mackinac Island. There are so many things to see on this wonderful island that you can’t see it all in a day.
It has taken me several trips to the island and every time I stumble across something new on the island that I had heard about but had never seen. Of course, I have some favorites on this beautiful island and if you tell me that you are going on a trip to the island these are some of the spots that I will recommend that you stumble across because they are just so beautiful.
1. Anne’s Tablet
This is one of the best views that I have seen of the island! You are out-of-the-way of the main street and all the hustle and bustle of the crowded main and market streets. From here you can see the lake and the downtown area. But don't step inside the horseshoe shape on the ground. There's a legend that if you step in the horseshoe you will have bad luck!
2. Fort Holmes
It’s a bit of a hike to get here and it is the highest point on the island. You can see everything from here! Now you have to be willing to take the hike out here and up or down the 200+ stairs But the pictures from here are so worth it and it was just rebuilt in 2015 after a fire happened!
3.Crack in the island
Yup, you read that right! There is literally a crack in the island and you can climb down in it because in some places it is as deep as three or four feet deep! If you go here you have to get a picture of you or someone who you are exploring the island within the crack!
4.The "Somewhere In Time" Gazebo
If you have yet to see "Somewhere In Time," I recommend that you see it, and then go find this Gazebo next to the state park office up the hill from downtown. It is also located not far from Anne’s Tablet, so after you see Anne's Tablet, take the quick walk here.
5.Point lookout
From here you can see sugar-loaf and this is a beautiful place in the fall when the leafs are starting to change. This is another spot that you have to be willing to climb up a bunch of stairs to get to but it's another one that is totally worth it!
