One of my favorite adventures in Marquette is to Dead River Falls! It’s a super quick and easy drive from downtown Marquette (about 14 minutes) and only 7 minutes from our local Target, haha! If you’re looking to get to this waterfall… Google Maps will take you right there. Also be sure to check out Reany Falls on your way in or out too!
Read MoreOne of my favorite places to visit in autumn is the Porcupine Mountains! It was a great day of fall color, local history, a lighthouse in the distance, a fun dive bar, and conversation with the local Yoopers. Add Summit Peak and Lake of the Clouds to your visit… for the most amazing autumn views! Read on for my time in Ontonagon!
Read MoreCheck out a day in the Lower Keweenaw! This trip includes a Finnish-style pancake, a little shopping, old mining ruins, a small waterfall hike, a “dreamy” local bar/restaurant, and two gorgeous lighthouses. Read on to learn more about the Portage Canal South Entry!
Read MoreDuring my trip to The Soo, I headed to Point Iroquois Lighthouse to check another off the list! This one is very easy to find, park, and walk to! There is a wooden boardwalk surrounding it that leads down to the beach. Definitely a great spot to take a walk, check out the lighthouse, and watch the sunset.
Read MoreOff to Sault Ste. Marie or The Soo Locks… or just “The Soo” if you’re a local! I just spent a solo weekend adventuring around and I loved it. This weekend had all of my favorite UP things… freighters, maritime history, the Great Lakes, boat rides, fried whitefish, golden hours, and lighthouses! Read on for a weekend in The Soo…
Read MoreGrand Haven will always hold a special place in my heart! I visited in spring, and walked around downtown for a bit, hit up Pronto Pup for a quick dinner of corndogs, and walked to the Grand Haven South Pier & Lighthouse. Definitely a must visit if you’re looking for a quaint beach town in Michigan… sunsets here are always glorious!
