Just a couple of blocks from downtown is this cute little museum run by the Charlevoix Historical Society in the girlhood home of the wife of the real estate developer who crafted the locally famous Mushroom Houses. The staff is warm and welcoming, displays interesting and informative. Down in the gift shop you'll even find relics of Earnest Hemingway's first marriage. Speaking of the gift shop, we found our quarry hidden in the rack with the postcards -- a perfect little booklet for $5.00 that gave us brief facts about each of the mushroom houses with walking and driving tour directions. Stop and grab the booklet first like we did, peruse it at lunch in one of the many wonderful restaurants in town, and then go see the houses. This is a quick stop, but do make it part of your trip. Admission is free, but the Historical Society will appreciate your donation -- or spend some of your vacation budget there on a book of full color mushroom house photographs or on beautiful replica prints of Northern Michigan maps hand drawn by Irene Harsha-Young.
