Petoskey, sitting on the shores of Lake Michigan, has been a popular vacation spot for decades. Earnest Hemingway spent the first 18 summers of his life sailing and fishing on nearby Walloon Lake, and the area features prominently in several of his stories. The Little Traverse History Museum shows how the Petoskey area was a formative influence on young Hemingway. The area is also a well known winter destination, with three popular ski resorts featuring everything from dog sled rides to tubing.

We parked in Sunset Park in Petoskey and headed to Harbor Springs. In order to avoid the airport and the noise of busy roads, turn down Beach Road and follow this quiet road all the way to the delightful town of Harbor Springs. You will pass lovely homes and waterfront views. There are many eateries to choose from in Harbor Springs before you head back to your starting point.

This is an amazing trail to hike by a river. We took my father- in- law who was also able to walk it. Nice afternoon in nature not too far from downtown petoskey.

I loved coming here on my birthday. My boyfriend and I had spent time in Mackinac City and were on our way back home to Traverse City. We love Petoskey so before picking up our Indian food at a restaurant across the highway we decided to play putt putt golf at Pirates Cove Adventure Golf. What a blast. The staff welcomed us and handed us a Captain's Course card. We didn't bother keeping score. It was so much fun to just enjoy the game in the moment. The course is easy to navigate and there's some challenging golf holes.. Lots of trees and quaint waterways and falls add to the charm. I can't wait to go back someday again. If you want to brush up on your golfing this little gem on Highway 31 in Petoskey will win you over.

The four of us had a pleasant afternoon outside sampling our cider flights. It wasn't busy so we could take our time studying the board and carefully choosing our pours. My favorite was the Apple Blueberry. It was a perfect outing for a fall day. Next time, I will bring some snacks to share.
