The new owners of the longtime motel/restaurant known formerly as The Shoreline Resort have done a great job of renovating the space. Delicious coffees, breakfasts, lunches and ice cream. Hours vary. Right on the beach. They also rent kayaks.

Great food with large selection of craft beers and scotches. The Fitz is right on the shore of Lake Superior in Eagle River. Reservations are a must, as the space is not large. Check out their website to score a table days or even weeks in advance in high season! Highly recommend. Casual dress.

This is a great place for a special dinner! Right on the water in Copper Harbor. Wonderful, extensive menu includes fresh Lake Superior fish. Delicious food with a flair, including traditional German dishes. Reservations suggested, and often a must in high season. Casual dress is fine.

This family-owned fish restaurant and market is on US 41 just north of Hancock. The fresh fish they serve and sell has only been out of Lake Superior for a few hours. We love the fish tacos. Yum!

Right on US 41 on the south edge of Mohawk, this bakery is worth a stop to gather not just baked goods, but regional jams and jellies (at more affordable prices than some 'other' bakery) ! He also has interesting 'things' for sale. Highly recommend.

Sightseeing

This is an historic gem just 1 mile south of Copper Harbor on US 41. Built by the CCC during the Depression, generations of Copper Country folk have fond memories of spending time at KML over the years. The new owners have made some changes, including (in 2022 summer), no daily dining offerings. Check their website for details. The iconic 9 hole golf course is gorgeous. Worth a drive to see the historic main building and golf course.

This 19th c. US Army outpost at the far north end of Copper Harbor has wonderful, historic displays that recreate the military lifestyle on the Lake Superior frontier all those years ago. Very much worth the visit to this Michigan State Park location.

The drive up to the top of Mt. Brockway off of M-26 is lovely, and the view from the top is unparalleled. On clear days you can see Isle Royale National Park to the north, and Lake Superior vistas for miles and miles. The verdant forests on the south side, with migrating raptors soaring past, are just as spectacular. Sunsets viewed from the top are a special treat. Note: the road has some rough spots - take it easy!

Mt. Bohemia near Lac La Belle is the premier ski hill in the upper midwest, but that's not all! In the summer and fall, enjoy the Nordic Spa with a huge hot tub, a lovely swimming pool, a cold plunge, and a steam sauna. (check website for day pass info to the Spa & pool amenities.) Additionally, the Log bar poolside features great homemade, wood-grilled pizzas. Check their website for summer info and pictures. In the fall, enjoy a ride up the ski lift to gaze at the spectacular fall colors. (weather permitting). Dates for the fall color rides are determined by when the colors start to peak! Highly recommend Mt. Bohemia for Nordic Spa and pizza!!
