Island Group Travel Ideas 
Does your group plan
to travel to Mackinac Island in the near future? If so, you’ve made a
good choice. This 3.8 square mile island which is located in Lake Huron
is on the official list as a National Historic Landmark. This is due to
the fact that much restoration and preservation of the buildings there
has been carried out over the years. There is a representative of
almost every style of architecture on the island. Most of the island,
well over 80 percent, is set aside as Mackinac Island State Park.
Interestingly, almost all cars, trucks, and other motor vehicles are
banned from the island.
