Unfortunately not.... I failed the mission. They wouldn't let me park in the parking lot so I parked clear at that beach parking where the water is real shallow even way out a quarter mile practically. I hiked clear from there, clear along the one lake and got clear to the end just to have it turn into a private driveway when I thought it would take me clear to the National Park Land. I was so mad. Then I got rained on.
I was exhausted and honesty it kind of spoiled my trip there to not be able to get back there. Personally I felt like it was ridiculous that they didn't make the parking lots bigger.
Yeah… you basically have to be in line at 6:00 am to get in the parking lot for The Grotto. There are much nicer beaches in Tiny Ontario, near Midland … and further North at Killbear and Killarney …
We go every summer …
Wow! Those are really nice! The Great Lakes certainly are nice! They are like inland seas! I really feel like there is value in Marquette, Michigan and it kind of seems like the next Traverse City
Yes, Marquette is very nice. I’ll see if I can find some land there next. Stay tuned ….
