context_page_description: Holly is a village in north Oakland County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 6,086 at the 2010 census. The village is located within Holly Township. It is about 15 miles south of Flint and 55 miles northwest of Detroit.
context_section_description: Holly is home to the Annual Holly Dickens Festival  and to the Michigan Renaissance Festival, which was the main shooting location for the 2009 film All's Faire in Love. It is also the starting point of the Shiawassee River Heritage Water Trail at WaterWorks Park.
  Mount Holly, the largest ski/snowboard resort in southeastern Michigan, is located 3 miles (5 km) northeast of the village in Groveland Township. The ski area has 19 trails with a range of difficulty, and a high-speed quad chairlift. Also nearby is the state owned Holly Recreation Area.
  Crapo Park, named after Michigan Governor Henry H. Crapo (1804–1869), located near the junction of the CSX Saginaw Subdivision and Canadian National Railway's Holly Subdivision is a popular viewing location for railfans. Both lines were formerly served by Holly's small (now abandoned) Holly Union Depot, built in 1886. A nonprofit group is currently attempting to restore the neglected building to its former glory.
  The town was featured as a campaign stop in the 1993 movie In The Line Of Fire.
