Big Sable Point Lighthouse

Reviewed By TobyRyane - Hart, United States

Visited here on a day when the bus was running to the lighthouse. Transportation to and from the lighthouse is only available twice a month and I would recommend planning your trip around their schedule as it is over a two mile hike each way. There is a small charge to ride the bus-$5.00 for adults and $2.00-$3.00 for children, depending on age. While the lighthouse is beautiful when viewed from the outside, I would recommend paying a small fee to climb to the top and take in a fabulous view of Lake Michigan.

Ludington North Breakwater Light

Reviewed By amarh725 - Spooner, United States

It's so much fun and you have to do it while in ludington. Walk on a pier and follow the path to the lighthouse if it is not too windy. I am a " big chicken" but it was so worth it. The lighthouse was not open but you could stay there and have a perfect sunset picture. Don't wear your good shoes and keep your phone in a left pocket. The waves could splash you a bit or more ????. Definitely a fun walk to the light is a must.

Historic White Pine Village

Historic White Pine Village offers a living-history, family-friendly, fun-filled tour of a late 19th – early 20th century pioneer village. The Village boasts 30 historic exhibit buildings, including the original 1849 Mason County Courthouse (on the National Register of Historic Places ) and an authentic turn-of-the-century steam locomotive, tender car, and flat car loaded with logs and headed toward the Village’s working sawmill. Visitors come face-to-face with early settlers: first-person interpreters with scripts carefully prepared by staff and historians, they interact and improvise with visitors in the persona of historical characters and recreate actual personages from Mason County. The buildings contain thousands of authentic artifacts and archives depicting the rich lumbering and agricultural history of its area. Thousands of area school children, families, individual visitors and residents tour the Village annually.

Amber Elk Ranch

Working elk ranch, take a 50 minute ride through our 130 acres of beautiful pasture where you will see elk cows and calves, spikers and bull elk up close. You will have the opportunity to feed the elk right from the wagon.
