Mackinac Island Among Best Fall Travel Spots: Ranking
Mackinac Island was picked among the best fall travel spots across the nation.
MACKINAC ISLAND, MI — Mackinac Island was picked among the best fall travel spots across the nation.
USA Today ranked the island as the second-best place to visit in the fall. Only Gatlinburg, Tennessee was ranked higher.
"The vibes are just right on Mackinac Island each fall. Crisp, sunny days with vibrant foliage give way to a slower pace of life in this resort town. A carriage ride is one of the best ways to peep those leaves, and Halloween weekend is always a fun event. Kids can go trick-or-treat at the downtown shops while adults enjoy grown-up costume parties at local establishments later in the evening," USA Today said of Mackinac Island.
