Mackinac Island

Highlight • Settlement

Time seems to stand still on Mackinac Island, not only because there are no cars, but also because there are two historic military forts and a handful of the oldest buildings in Michigan. Just being here will make you feel like you're in the past! Mackinac Island is home to many beautiful examples of Victorian architecture among the cottages and B&Bs, many of which are well over 100 years old. The island's museums and reenactments by costumed interpreters also offer glimpses into the lives of 19th-century soldiers and civilians.

For decades, the area below the fort was used as a garden for vegetable cultivation. Shortly after the fort was closed in 1895, the Park Commission transformed this area into a park in honor of Father Jacque Marquette. By 1907, the landscaping was completed, and two years later, the statue by Gaetano Trentanove was erected in the center of the park. It is located on Main Street in front of Fort Mackinac. The park is available year-round.
