Grand Island is part of the Hiawatha National Forest. It is located in Lake Superior just off the north shore of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula near the mainland community of Munising, Michigan.  Grand Island comprises 13,500 acres of National Forest land, and boasts a rich cultural and natural history. Native Tribes have long used the island as a fur trading post and the surrounding fisheries as a resource for year-round living.  In the 1990's, Grand Island opened up for outdoor recreational use such as biking, hiking, camping and fishing, creating more access to the outdoors.  Since then, many outdoor enthusiast have ventured to this spectacular place to see its beauty with their own eyes.  Away from the crowds of Pictured Rocks, this island offers the tranquility and peace of Lake Superior under the crisp northern sky. We are thankful for the upkeep of the land from Native cultures and are grateful to be granted the opportunity to visit its beauty.  We are excited to explore this prestigious land with you and keep it wild.
