Isle Royale National Park is situated on an island on Lake Superior near the Canadian border. This beautiful island spans 432 square miles and was shaped into its present form by Ice Age glaciers.

Have you ever wondered what the world was like before buses and cars? In Michigan, you can actually experience this first hand by visiting Mackinac Island. This island gives you a glimpse of a simpler way of life. The highlight of this old-fashioned island is that you can take a tour on a horse-drawn carriage.

The Michigan Historical Museum in Lansing is worth a visit when you want to learn the in-depth history of this state. This museum tells the story of Michigan from the prehistoric era to the 1900s. There are several exhibits that also relate to the industrial history of Michigan.

Home to the Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, and part of Lake Erie, Michigan is rich in natural vegetation and beauty. Families looking for an adventure should explore the Upper Peninsula region that houses famous natural attractions such as the Porcupine Mountains, Pictured Rocks, Mackinac Island, Isle Royale, Tahquamenon Falls, and the Seney National Wildlife Refuge. Then there is the heavenly Lower Peninsula region with its placid lakes, rivers, forests, sand dunes and beaches. Canoeing, fishing, sailing, and motorboating are popular activities. You'll love returning to your Michigan cabin rental to unwind after an action-packed day exploring.

There's more to Michigan than its natural legacies.

One of the longest suspension bridges in the world is the Mackinac Bridge, which joins the Lower Peninsula at Mackinaw City to the Upper Peninsula at St. Ignace. Frankenmuth in mid-Michigan is an interesting replica of a German town, where visitors make a customary stop at Zehnder's or The Bavarian Inn, known for their luscious fried chicken.
