Spring, summer and fall is extraordinary in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.  Every direction leads to adventure for all ages.  Visitors can enjoy mushrooming, hiking the North Country Trail just down the road from us, biking, sight-seeing, bird watching along the Tahquamenon corridor up to Whitefish Point Bird Observatory, viewing the fall colors throughout the region, along with a host of other great things to do.

Fourth of July Parade is held in Newberry every year with a special Old Photos Show held at the Tahquamenon Area Schools gymnasium.

Blueberry picking in August is really awesome fun for the entire family.  From the shores of Lake Superior inward towards Newberry is one of the finest places to pick in the UP.

The Tahquamenon Logging Museum offers up a Paul Bunyan sized list of events such as:  The Annual Woodchoppers Ball in March, Lumberjack Breakfasts with huge servings, along with 2 Music Festivals.  Visit the link below for exact dates because they do change each year.
