The No. 2 “Best Fall Travel Destination” in the country is in the Midwest, according to a new report.
Mackinac Island was just voted the “No. 2 Best Fall Travel Destination” in USA Today’s “10Best” Readers’ Choice awards for 2024, according to a press release.
The car-free island on Lake Huron, between Michigan’s Upper and Lower Peninsula, was also recently named the “No. 1 Best Summer Travel Destination” in the outlet’s summer awards earlier this year.
“The vibes are just right on Mackinac Island each fall,” the report said. “Crisp, sunny days with vibrant foliage give way to a slower pace of life in this resort town. A carriage ride is one of the best ways to peep those leaves, and Halloween weekend is always a fun event. Kids can go trick-or-treat at the downtown shops while adults enjoy grown-up costume parties at local establishments later in the evening.”
