Ice Fishing on Portage Lake

Well, I had a break for a few weeks. Mike and I drove down to Nashville TN to visit my sons. So nice to get away.
But, my break is over as the calls are coming in from our ice fishermen. Last year the ice fishing was phenomenal and I am hoping his year is the same.
I will let everyone know as soon as I see the shanties out there, so check back soon.

FYI Reservations are coming in early for next summer already. If you have definite plans to stay next summer, I advise you to reserve now.
I will call everyone in April to confirm.

Onekama, The Southern Gateway to The Most Scenic Highway in Michigan

Sorry, I have not posted for quite a while. Things have been pretty crazy around here!
I can't believe the summer is almost over already.
Labor Day week-end is filling up, so get your reservations in ASAP. The 4th and 5th are filled up, but we still have availability for the 6th and 7th. The Manistee County Fair will be here that week-end so there will be lots of fun things to do. Hope everyone is enjoying the rest of the summer!

Riding along beautiful M22

M22 is a favorite among motor cycle enthusiasts. The scenic ride brings bikers from all over the country.
What a wonderful group of "biker girls" we had here at Travelers Motel recently. Unfortunately for them they got caught in the rain while riding along beautiful M22.
They were such an enjoyable group of ladies! I hope they come back soon.

Great Fishing at Portage Lake, Onekama
