Mack is a small, quiet place in Itasca County, Minnesota, United States. It's called an "unincorporated community." This means it's a group of homes or buildings that isn't officially a town or city with its own local government.

Mack is special because it's located right inside the beautiful Chippewa National Forest. You can find it between two other places called Deer River and Talmoon. It sits where a main road, State Highway 6, meets a smaller road called Mac Road.
