One of our favorite destinations, especially when our grandkids are in town! Pond Hill Farm is a working farm market, winery, cafe, and brewery located 5 miles north of downtown Harbor Springs on M-119. Their cafe food is delicious, and Pizza on the Farm day is well worth planning for!
Stroll through the vineyards, hike through the woods, and pet farm animals in the livestock barn. In winter, cross country ski, snowshoe, fat tire bike, or hike on miles of groomed trails. The vineyard sled hill is a blast!

Legs Inn in Cross Village is called a monument to nature, built on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan that is the only place in Michigan you can see four lighthouses on a clear day.

No cars. Just ferry boats arriving at the dock. Horse-drawn carriages and tandem bicycles rolling through town. Molten fudge layered on marble slabs. The ferry leaves from Mackinaw City (or St. Ignace if you want to drive over the Mackinac Bridge!) throughout the day. Great history, and well worth the day trip.
