Hi, I will be driving from Madison Wisconsin to Niagara Falls in June and will be crossing the border at Sault Ste Marie. I would really appreciate some advice on the following: For an overnight stay which would you recommend, the usa or ontario side of the border? What route would you recommend for the onward journey? Is there a route that includes a car ferry crossing? 13 years ago I did a long drive around the great lakes and I remember taking a car ferry but cannot remember where from or where it arrived (across part of lake huron maybe?) I do remember really enjoying that ferry trip though and would love to find it again to enjoy with my children. I seem to recall spending a few hours on a lovely beach after the ferry crossing. Any clues and recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
Hi! I am planning a trip to North Manitou with a mid size group, perhaps 5-10 people, possibly including two kids ages 7 and 8. I would love to do a 2 night trip but I have a feeling I will get a better response for a 1 nighter for various reasons. So my question is... is there a recommended route for the following schedule: after getting off the ferry, doing a mid-length hike (maybe 8 miles max), while seeing some nice lookouts, swimming at a nice beach (or in the one of the inland lakes?), and then camping in a relatively quiet place with few bugs, with the goal of having a shorter hike in the morning to get back in time for the ferry back to Leland with time to spare? I saw that someone recommend camping at the Village for the last night, but since I want to plan only 1 night, that won't work because part of the fun will be the backcountry camping aspect. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance! Shirlee Berman
