Review & FAQ:
The Petoskey Area in northern Michigan incorporates several charming lakeside communities including Harbor Springs, Petoskey, and Bay Harbor, making this an inviting vacation destination. Fall is the most beautiful season to visit – try one of several scenic drives to make the most of the extravagant color.
In summer you can relax on the beaches or enjoy a wide variety of water sports, take the chairlift up Boyne Mountain, hike the trails in Avalanche Mountain Preserve, or discover the area by bike. For winter fun there are three ski resorts and the Avalanche Bay Indoor Waterpark. There are several museums for rainy days and lots of live entertainment options.
