Island That Takes Tourists 'Back In Time' Works To Make Visitors Feel Safe In The Age Of Coronavirus



Mackinac Island, Michigan, is known for its no-car policy. The picturesque island, filled with horse-drawn carriages, bicycles, and fudge, is famous for taking visitors back in time.

I've been there and everything from the ferry ride over to the island and the spectacular front porch and dining at the Grand Hotel to the horse and buggy rides and fudge is so relaxing. I've biked around the entire island which I believe is only 8 miles.

I would not think to go there this year.
