My Michigan Vacation
Tagged Under : getaway, michigan, vacation
Let me interrupt my regular posts by raving about a vacation getaway I recently had. The destination? Michigan. My husband and I had been planning on a trip to Michigan just to visit some of the sights there but I honestly didn’t expect it to happen so soon. Talk about a surprise! Anyway, for the vacation we stayed at Mission Point Resort located at Mackinac Island, which is actually the first of two vacation spots I’m going to mention.
Mackinac Island is situated at Lake Huron. After reading about how cars are not allowed on the island, we planned it so we really don’t have to bring one. My daughter protested to the idea but I was able to convince her that commuting is a lot more fun. We rented some bicycles and she had lots of fun. The island was very beautiful especially with its history which you can discover by visiting Fort Mackinac. Next stop, Tahquamenon Falls.
I’ve visited a lot of waterfalls all over the country and this one does not disappoint. There are actually two water falls, the Upper Falls and the Lower Falls. The Upper Falls is the larger one and is most probably one of the largest waterfalls east of the Mississippi.
I really enjoyed the vacation and I’m sure my husband and daughter did, too. If you’re planning a vacation for the summer, Michigan is a good place to consider. There are a few more vacation spots that we were not able to visit because of time restrictions but maybe next time we’ll get to do so. Maybe as a summer vacation.
