I've been going to Michigan for 51 years, and until this past July 5th, have NEVER been on the Pictured Rocks Boat Cruise to see the shoreline. I've told people over and over who have asked that it's a great tour, but I always said "I've heard it's beautiful"! Well, it truly is...stunning might be

If not, this would make a great day trip while in the U.P. Check out these links to see what the State Park has to offer! https://www.mynorth.com/2018/06/10-things-to-do-at-tahquamenon-falls-state-park/ https://www.michigan.org/property/tahquamenon-falls-state-park http://www.newberrytour

The weather has been fantastic, just warm enough but not too warm. The bugs haven't been bad at all (keep your fingers crossed!). Temps have been in the high 70's and low 80's. On my trip into town today, I saw a deer, a pair of sandhill cranes, a turkey, and a black bear. If I would have had my

Have you been to see the Big Spring? Located in Palms Book State Park (about 15 miles or so from the Resort) is Kitch-iti-kipi, Michigan's largest spring and named "Mirror of Heaven" by early Indians. Big Spring is emerald green in color, 200 feet across and 40 feet deep, maintaining a constant 45

If you have either a Crock-Pot or Instant Pot and can squeeze it into your vehicle on your trip, this may make your week a whole lot easier! I don't know about you, but when I'm on vacation, I really don't want to spend my entire time cooking. Pay close attention to the forum posts regarding m

Haven't done this, but man does it look like a blast! Here is a link to the website out of Munising that handles tours. https://www.paddlepicturedrocks.com/

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, the beautiful shoreline in the picture? That's a must while you're here! Munising, Michigan, about 28.5 miles from the resort and a 39 minute drive, has more natural beauty than you can imagine. From waterfalls to shipwreck tours to shoreline cruises to beaches

Well, in theory, a fish meal that you catch from our fresh spring-water lake sounds fantastic! But, in the event you don't get that lucky, keep it simple while you're relaxing here in the UP. You're not going to want to spend all your time in the cabin cooking. Crockpot meals or Instant Pot meals

I've mentioned it before, I know, but it needs to be reiterated. You HAVE to visit some waterfalls while you're up at the Resort! Many of these are within miles of us. You can pick a few or a lot to see in one day, and they definitely won't disappoint! Here's a link/map to give you an idea how c

We'd love to see pictures that you took while on vacation in the U.P. Pictures are worth 1000 words! Post yours here so others can see; the fish you caught, scenery, wildlife, attractions....the list goes on. Honestly, it's hard sometimes for people to envision what the Resort is like. We welcom

It's a couple of weeks away, yes, but it's never too early to plan ahead for the 4th and your vacation to the Resort! Seven layer dip is a huge hit over the Holidays! This is a lighter version using nonfat refried beans and hummus in place of full fat refried beans and sour cream. The cheese is a

Have you ever heard of them? It's a cross between a banana and a s'more. Just split a banana about 2/3 of the way down (through the skin and the actual banana), pry it open, stuff it with toppings, wrap it in foil, and place it over the campfire! You can make any kind of banana boat you want.

Honestly, is there a better combination in food than S'Mores? Thought you might be interested in another easy recipe for S'Mores dip in a cast iron skillet that you can make right over the open fire. Sure, you can cook marshmallows over the heat and stick a Hershey candy bar piece on the graham cr

You're going to need worms, minnows, tackle, your fishing poles and a net when you vacation. Here's a quick list of the closest "bait" shops from the resort. Top O' Lake Sport Shop in Manistique, 1-906-341-5241 https://www.facebook.com/Top-O-Lake-Sport-Shop-145234448939436/ Linda's Bread Box a

Seriously, there isn't much for you to remember to bring. Probably most important, you'll need toilet paper, paper towels, dish rags and towels, and bath towels in your bag. Past that, food, clothes and toiletries. Your double bed will be furnished with all sheets, pillowcases and blankets. If y

Now by local, that may be a bit of a stretch. Nothing is very close to us, but here are several places we frequent that are in our neck of the woods. Closest to the resort are: Jack Pine Lodge Bar and Grill http://jackpinelodgeup.com/ Big Spring Inn
