Planning To Visit Mackinaw City?

Visit Mackinaw City... European fur traders and settlers established a stockade village on the Straits of Mackinac, a key strategic point in the Upper Great Lakes. This settlement was called Michilimackinac, now preserved in time as Colonial Michilimackinac. Outside of the settlement, today's Mackinaw City offers visitors adventures found nowhere else. In the mix of old and new there are 3 other National Historic Sites along with Colonial Michilimackinac. Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse, Historic Mill Creek, and Fort Mackinac. When it's time to return to the present you will find Thunder Falls Family Waterpark, daily live performances at the Mackinaw Theater, nightly laser light shows, golf courses, parks, beaches, and over 100 shops and fine dining to delight you.

More Attractions to See In Traverse City & Acme...

The Beaches - Beach bumming, treasure hunting & castle building. This is the stuff memories are made of. Perhaps the most stunning features of the Traverse City area are its sandy shoreline and crystal clear lakes.

The region has a total of 180.8 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline and 149 deep, aqua-colored lakes that are 10 acres or larger in size. In this section, you will learn where some of the area’s best beaches and parks are located and the amenities that they offer.

If you are searching for solitude, choose a remote beach - even during the height of the summer season, it is possible to be alone on a long Lake Michigan beach. Or choose one of the many beaches right in Traverse City for companionship, volleyball and a friendly family atmosphere.

Wineries - Located on the 45th parallel, Traverse City & Acme is home to vintners who grow grapes and bottle wines on the scenic Old Mission and Leelanau Peninsulas. The wines are fast becoming among the finest offered nationally and internationally. The ideal climate, with vineyards protected by winter snows and conditions moderated by proximity to Lake Michigan, has given rise to a wine industry that has been recognized for its quality and variety since the first winery opened here in 1974. Notable for Rieslings, methode champenoise sparkling wines, Chardonnays and fruit wines, Traverse City and Acme area vintners are now also receiving high praise from critics and consumers alike for their red wines, Pinot Noirs, ice wines and other varieties.

Visitors can enjoy days of touring and tastings at beautiful wineries located on some of the most breathtaking sites in the area. Our wineries are located on two beautiful peninsulas extending north from Traverse City - the Leelanau Peninsula and the Old Mission Peninsula.

Lighthouses and Maritime Attractions - Thanks to its abundant network of bays, rivers and other waterways, the Traverse City area had its own water-based highway system long before the advent of trains, planes and automobiles.

For centuries, Native American hunters and French-Canadian traders traveled the region by canoe. (It was they who named it “La Grande Traverse” because of the long five-mile crossing at the mouth of Grand Traverse Bay.) During the 19th century, fleets of schooners and steamships brought missionaries, settlers and summer resorters to Traverse City. Cargo vessels carried off huge loads of finished lumber from the sawmills and helped local farmers bring their crops to market each year, while a flourishing fishing industry grew up in some of the region’s smaller coastal towns.

Reminders of that heady time of sail and steam are all around: graceful lighthouses at the water’s edge, picturesque fishing towns, eerie shipwrecks and fascinating living history museums. And although the area’s maritime industry is diminished, it’s not entirely gone. On the west coast of the Leelanau Peninsula, you can watch big freighters and tankers thread their way through the Manitou Passage, a protected short cut on the north-south Lake Michigan route. And at the Great Lakes Maritime Academy in Traverse City – the nation’s only freshwater maritime academy -- cadets still train for careers as deck and engineering officers in the Great Lakes commercial fleet.

Want to experience the feel of a big sailing vessel for yourself? You can easily tour or sail aboard one of the areas celebrated tall ships for an afternoon of fun.
