Just an hour south of Mackinaw City (gateway to fudge and Amish vacationland Mackinac Island) is the town of Charlevoix. Dotting this charming town are 8 stone “mushroom” houses, built built by Earl Young. These little houses look like Hobbit houses and are organic and whimsical. If you’re very lucky, you may even be able to snag one for a rental.
