Mission Point Resort in Michigan

Mackinac Island is a destination built on a longstanding tradition of family holidays. It is also a place out of time, an automobile-free getaway reachable only by ferry. Drawing its strengths from the island's heritage, Mission Point Resort recalls an era before TV and endless extracurricular activities took the place of quality family time. Moms, dads, sons and daughters can borrow bikes and pedal off for a day's adventure, test their collective courage on a ghost tour, play a leisurely round of croquet and enjoy meals together, especially since the twelve-and-under set dines free. A club for those four to twelve features on-site arts and crafts as well as field trips to places such as the Butterfly House and Fort Mackinac. As for parents, they can try out the eighteen-hole executive putting course, play tennis or simply curl up with a good book in an Adirondack chair overlooking the water.
