Fun stay in the UP during off season

We were coming to Michigan for a graduation and added a few days on the UP to get some hiking and sightseeing in. It was hauntingly beautiful to see all the trees without their leaves and the summer cottages empty. Hiking was amazing with lots of gushing waterfalls. This place was warm, cozy, easy to get to and well stocked. The Pasties were yum too.

Right across the street from the Northern point of Lake Michigan

Really enjoyed our stay. Sam is a great host. We went to many local attractions including the snowmobile museum which we walked to from our place. Nice accommodations and located close to the Ship wreck museum and other attractions.The dog beach is just down the street. Our dogs loved the experience.
