Pam's Guide to Mackinac Island

Pam's Guide to Mackinac Island

To experience Mackinac Island at its finest, purchase your discounted ferry tickets at the Mackinaw City KOA Kampstore and take the 7:30 AM ferry to the island to enjoy the tranquil morning atmosphere of Main Street before the rush begins.  

Start your day with breakfast at the Chuck Wagon and from there take a narrated carriage ride explaining many of the historical sites.  

End your carriage ride with a visit to the famous Grand Hotel, its impressive Grand Porch and views from the Coppola Bar.  Don't miss the enchanting secret garden situated on the hotels's grounds.  

You'll find an abundance of fudge shops, restaurants and shopping options on Main Street and Market Street, with many delightful shops to choose from and fudge flavors to sample.  

If you're feeling adventurous, rent a bike and explore the island on two wheels.  

Additionally, visit Fort Mackinac, two historical churches and the original butterfly house on the island.

Conclude your stay by sitting on the patio at the Pink Pony, Mary's Bistro or the Libray and watch the ferries come and go.
