Things to Do in Mackinaw City Michigan
Located at the tip of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, Mackinaw City is a great summer destination in the state of Michigan. With views of the Mackinac Bridge and Mackinac Island within the Straits of Mackinac, there are a lot of things to do in Mackinaw City for tourism such as Colonial Michilimackinac and the Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse. Colonial Michilimackinac has the reconstructed Fort Michilimackinac, originally built by the French, later housed the British army until they moved fort operations to Fort Mackinac on Mackinac Island around 1780. Later, I head into downtown Mackinaw City which is home to many shops, restaurants, and fudge kitchens. For lunch, I stop at Scalawags Whitefish & Chips which is a great takeaway spot for some fresh, fried whitefish and chips.

Visiting Fort Michilimackinac, in Mackinaw City, Michigan
When visiting Mackinaw City and Straits area of Michigan, a worthy visit is the reconstructed colonial Fort Michilimackinac. The fort was built in 1715 by French explorers, and later lost to Great Britain.
Consequently, this fort is rich in colonial US history.

Aerial Tour of Mackinaw City, Michigan
Mackinaw City is one of those few areas where you can get both the sunset as well as the sunrise over the water. The sun rises over Lake Huron and sets over Lake Michigan.
In this video we feature 2 historic lighthouses of Mackinaw City. The Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse in Colonial Michilimackinac was opened in 1892 and operated until 1957. The McGulpin Point Lighthouse first operated from 1869 to 1906, but has resumed operation again in 2009.

Visiting Mackinaw City Michigan and The Mackinac Bridge
Today, we are visiting Mackinaw City Michigan and the Mackinac Bridge. Mackinaw City is located in northern Michigan. The highlight of Mackinaw City is the Mackinac Bridge which spans the gap between the lower peninsula of Michigan and the upper peninsula of Michigan.
It had been at least 25 years since I last stepped foot in Mackinaw City and boy has a lot changed. The very first thing I noticed that was different is a cool shopping district called the Mackinaw Crossings has been built. This little shopping area reminds me of the River Crossings in Frankenmuth, Michigan, but with a few more things to do. In fact, I believe it was built by the same developers.
After checking out the Mackinaw Crossings we decided to walk through downtown Mackinaw City and head out toward Lake Huron to check out some of the shoreline. The Lake Huron water is absolutely gorgeous. I was surprised at how clear and clean the lake looked.
After spending some time on Lake Huron we decided it was time to go and see the main attraction in Mackinaw City, the Mackinac Bridge. We visited both the lower peninsula and the upper peninsula sides to catch a good look at the bridge and the surrounding water.
Finally, at night I went back to the bridge to see it all lit up at night. While it was hard to see in the dark, what I could see was beautiful.
In conclusion, I think Mackinaw City is pretty fun place to visit. It reminds me of a cross between Gatlinburg, Tennessee and Frankenmuth, Michigan. I do think, however, that some of the areas around Mackinaw are a little dated and could use some work.
