We are new owners and just joined the Heartland Owner's Club. We are going to Northern Michigan (Traverse City to Mackinaw City) for 2 weeks. We have the campgrounds but looking for suggestions for things to do that are not necessarily in the brochures. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

There are several wineries along the Leelanau peninsula worth sampling. Our favorite "flavors" comes from the Chateau Grand Traverse. Harbor Beach is another touristy town. For a good Polish meal, check out Legg's Inn in Cross Village.

Be sure to visit Elk Rapids for Northern Michigan small town charm. That's where my dad was born and raised and I spend every vacation throught 50's- 60's and my wife and I will spending the first two week of July.

We are originally from southern Michigan . . . moved to Colorado 18 years ago (seems like yesterday)

We used to pull our boat up to the Leelanau peninsula and cruise up and down Lake Leelanau and go into the many inlets to the small towns around the lake.

Lots of fun!
