We stopped for lunch at a roadside park on Grand Lake west of Presque Isle on US-23. I had used the Michigan road map I got at the Welcome Center to locate the roadside park.

We arrived here at Mackinaw Mill Creek Camping around 2:15 p.m. This is a huge campground on the Lake Huron coast! We are in site 72 with full hookups (30 amp). We had another short driving day today – it was 176 miles from Au Gres to here.
After setting up the RV, we drove in to Mackinaw City. We’re going to take a ferry over to Mackinac Island tomorrow and we wanted to locate the ferry docks. Mackinaw City isn’t very large and we found the post office, the IGA (the only grocery store), the car wash, the Mackinaw Trolley Company, an Italian restaurant (Nonna Lisa’s) and the ticket office for the Arnold Ferry Line.
After buying our tickets for the ferry for tomorrow, we decided to have dinner at Nonna Lisa’s Italian Ristorante. It is located at the back of a shopping center in a log building. We didn’t have the camera with us and wished we had brought it. This was unlike any Italian restaurant we had been in. It was in keeping with the log building and the interior decor was more like a lodge. There were hand carved tables and chairs made from natural hardwoods. There were Italian paintings and pictures on the walls.
We ordered Bruschetta for our appetizer. Mike had Nonna Lisa's Special Stromboli and I had Fettucine Alfredo with grilled chicken breast (the most chicken I’ve had in fettucine alfredo). Unfortunately we didn't try any of their desserts, we were so full after eating dinner there wasn't any room left for dessert.
Then it was back to the RV for the night. This weekend is Mackinac Island's annual Lilac Festival and we're looking forward to our trip to the Island tomorrow.
