Grand Island is part of the Hiawatha National Forest and offers rustic campsites and two remote cabins.

Visitors can get to the island via passenger ferry or private watercraft. The ferry departs from Grand Island Landing on the mainland, located on M-28 about 2.5 miles west of Munising’s blinking light. Look for the Grand Island National Recreation Area signs.

There is a narrated bus tour available on the island that runs Memorial Day through Labor Day and the Grand Island Marathon is held here the last weekend of July every year.

The Small-Town Experience -
We perfected being a small town long ago and choose to remain so. As our community grows, we continue to call each other by our first names, gather and meet in-person, share civic duties and demonstrate our intense pride of place. Though we may grow in popularity and visitation, Munising will continue to be an inviting, proud and community-minded small town. It is our pleasure to be one of the stewards of such a wonderful small town, Munising, Michigan.
