This MI Place Is The Nation's Top Summer Travel Spot

A popular Michigan travel spot is the best summer vacation spot in the nation, according to a new ranking.

U.S. News and World readers and editors voted Mackinac Island as the nation's summer destination.

Mackinac Island beat out a long list of popular national parks and well-known vacation spots, including Glacier National Park, Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Canyon.

The car-less island settled between the Upper and Lower Peninsulas offers plenty of opportunities for summer fun, including kayaking, biking along Lake Shore Boulevard and hiking to the Instagram-worthy Arch Rock.

"For a classic Mackinac Island experience, take a horse-drawn carriage ride through the island's downtown, stopping to sample some of Mackinac's famous fudge along the way," U.S. News and World editors wrote.

Here is U.S. News and World's top ten summer travel spots:

1. Mackinac Island
2. Glacier National Park
3. Mammoth Lakes
4. Yellowstone National Park
5. Zion National Park
6. Grand Canyon National Park
7. Grand Teton National Park
8. Kiawah Island
9. Mount Rainier National Park
10. Adirondacks
