M-108 was a state trunkline highway in the US state of Michigan. The highway followed Nicolet Street, although some maps also labeled it as the Mackinaw Highway. The road was on the boundary between Emmet and Cheboygan counties.
The original M-108 designation dated back to 1928. This version was transferred to local control in 1957, but revived later under a different routing in 1960. On April 29, 2010, the Petoskey News-Review reported that the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will rebuild the roadway in preparation to transfer it back to local control once again. MDOT and local officials signed memoranda of understanding, completing the transfer of the roadway on December 9, 2010.
The 1.069-mile (1.720 km) long route connected two interchanges off Interstate 75 (I-75) on the south side of Mackinaw City with a tourist welcome center. The southern terminus was at a partial interchange with I-75 (exit 337) just south of Mackinaw City on the boundary between Emmet and Cheboygan counties. This interchange is about two miles (3 km) north of the northern terminus of US Highway 31 (US 31). M-108 followed Nicolet Street north from I-75 into the Village of Mackinaw City past the Thunder Falls Water Park and some local motels to an intersection with US 23. North of the US 23 intersection is the Michigan Welcome Center and other tourist amenities on the west side of the street. State maintenance ends at the intersection with the off-ramp from northbound I-75 exit 338.
