Michigan has one, the Lost Peninsula which juts into Lake Erie. Michiganders can only get to it by driving into Ohio. It is mostly a marina but also a few dozen
homes.

Subject: Re: The Northwest Angle - part of Minnesota in Canada
I've noticed a few other "orphans of the atlas" along the border:
Buffalo Bay Point and Elm Point, Minn. -- Two small peninsulas along the western shore of Lake of the Woods, southwest of the Northwest Angle. They are accessible by land only through Manitoba.
Point Roberts, Wash. -- At the northwestern tip of the continental US, south of Vancouver. It's accessible by land only through British Columbia.
Saint Regis, Quebec -- At the western end of the straight east-west border of New York State and Quebec, near Cornwall, Ontario. It's on the south bank of the Saint Lawrence River and accessible by land only
through New York.
Province Point, Vt. -- A small peninsula on Lake Champlain, near Alburg. It's accessible by land only through Quebec.
Province Island, Vt. -- The southern tip of an island in Lake Memphremagog, Quebec/Vermont. Most of the island is in Quebec.
Estcourt Station, Me. -- The northernmost point in Maine, accessible by road only through Quebec.
