Any recommendations for site-seeing? I'm not taking a boat either.

Thanks!!

All great visits listed above. The Big Springs is a must. Miners river below Pictured Rocks is cool. Canyon Falls north of 28 and south of L'Anse is fairly unknown and cool.

Fayette state park is a pretty cool old mining ghost town . There is a dozen or so late 1800/early 1900's mining town buildings you can go into.
If you go though manistique you can stop at the Mackinaw trails wine tasting/samplery, its still a favorite of my wifes.
Marquettes ore dock brewery has some pretty good micro brews on tap.......its hard to make it home some days........

heres a shot of fayette


Never mind the two goofs, but a good shot of the huge limestone cliffs in the background. Its something else to see by boat, coming off plane by the huge cliffs into a small hidden harbor with crystal clear waters, is a great expierience. You can still get there by land too
