Palms Book State Park’s Kitch-iti-kipi is Michigan’s largest spring. Kitch-iti-kipi is an Ojibwa word said to have many meanings, including The Great Water, The Blue Sky I See, and The Roaring Bubbling Spring. Kitch-iti-kipi is 200’ in diameter, 42′ deep and delivers 16,000 gallons of crystal clear water per minute. The water stays at 45 degrees year round. You can ride the observation raft for a beautiful view across the spring. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the floating dock was closed for a long time but, since people kept breaking the locks, it was opened very recently. Looking down the center of the raft, you can see the bubbling spring doing its work. Large trout seemed to be everywhere, but no fishing is allowed. A must see!!! #puremichigan #summer2020 #nofilter

We loved talking a leisurely stroll on the boardwalk with our friends and their dog. Beautiful scenery.

Waited to book a lakeside spot and it was just lovely. Manistique is a cute little town, with a good supermarket. Took a day trip to Munising. Great trip. Was there Mon-Thurs in mid-August and it was quite crowded. Typical experience with children who run through your campsite, etc. but really a great trip!!
