Holland is between the two and has many wonderfully quirky shops & a nice beach too. have fun! few people realize it but michigan has much to offer beyond just motown & henry ford museum. • mackinac island is wonderful, albeit a bit touristy. but you can find plenty of cottages to rent & spend your time wandering the island without having to deal with all the tourist trap hotels.
