A trip to Harbor Springs should be on the schedule. While there have some of Tom's Mom's cookies. People stand in line to buy them! They take pride in their marina and its supposedly clean water.
In Mackinaw City you must have a Pastie (pronounced like in the past-ee) and visit Mamma Mia's pizza restaurant and the little theater on the 2nd floor with a video of how the bridge was made and many souvenirs of what the workers used to build it.
On the Island rent bikes or a horse drawn carriage and ride the nine mile path around the Island. If you are feeling flush have lunch at the Grand Hotel. ($10 please to walk along the porch) We usually have lunch at the Golf Club across the street (no sleeveless shirts allowed).
When in that area we usually stay at the Mackinaw Mill Creek Campground.
BTW Mackinac is pronounced the same as the town; not ending in ACK!
