horse-drawn carriage ride
Set on the north side of Lake Huron, in the waters separating Michigan's upper and lower peninsulas, Mackinac (pronounced Mack-i-naw) Island is one of Michigan's loveliest and destinations. Cars are prohibited, and so visitors get around on foot, bicycles, and horse-drawn carriages. Visitors step back in time amid restored Victorian homes, many transformed into shops. 800-454-5227.
