Michigan — The Summer Land

^IQUE among the States of America is Michigan. No other commonwealth is com- parable to it. Three lakes join hands and compass the state to make it a peninsula and a vast pleasure ground. With one thousand miles of lake — the great unsalted seas — that roll around its shores, Michigan is one of the delightfully cool regions of the North American continent during the heated season. There are accommodations for those who care for the simple outdoor life and accustomed to "roughing it," or all the diversified distractions for those who prefer life at well-appointed summer resorts. These form an almost unbroken chain that fringes the entire shore line of a thousand miles.

The physical structure of the country is not without its diversity, from forest and meadow, mountain and \'alley, to lake and moor. Sunshine, gayety and life are ne\'er wanting. They who have come to Michigan once seldom fail to visit it again and again.

Rest and comfort are assured in Northern Michigan.

The peculiar topography of Lower Michigan vouches against the possibility of excesses of heat or cold. There is an almost entire absence of humidity. Even at the height of the summer season the sun's rays in\ol\c no discomforts. The prevailing winds are from the west and are cooled in their sweep across the bosom of Lake Michigan. Cool nights are common in Northern Michigan, when only a few hundred miles to the southward, the densely populated cities are sweltering. Sound sleep and perfect rest follow naturally in the wake of a stay in this vast country.

Friendly welcome awaits those seeking a real holiday at the hundreds of summer hotels and farm houses that dot this section. From New Buffalo at the southern end of Lake Michigan, and extending to the north as far as the Straits of Mackinac and Sault Ste. Marie, and again southward down the St. Mary's River, Lake Huron, the St. Clair River and Lake St. Clair, these resorts fringe the shore.

Michigan's resorts are readily accessible. From Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Buffalo, Toledo or Detroit, it is but a twelve to a twenty-four-hour ride in a comfortable Pullman sleeping car. For those who li\'e further south close train connections are made at almost every other point.

Brief descriptive sketches of but a small number of the more important resorts are carried in this booklet. Specific detailed information relative to the hotels and other places where accommodations are offered will be found in the last pages of this publication. Accurate detail maps of the resort region are also inserted at the back of the booklet.

A forecast of the schedules of "The Resort Special" to the principal resorts for the season 1917 is gi\en. These train schedules are but tentative or approximate, and consequently should not be accepted as final. Representatives of the Passenger Department of the Pere Marquette Railway, or other lines mentioned in this booklet, will cheerfully lend such assistance and give such information as is necessary to make a complete and well-planned vacation.

For the Lake Michigan East Coast Country, greatly reduced Week-End Fares are offered at Chicago and suburban stations for points from New Buffalo to Pentwater, inclusive, from May 4th to September 30th. These tickets will be sold for all Friday afternoon trains, all Saturday trains and the Sunday morning train. Returning, they will be good until the following Monday. (See note below.)

NOTE — These tickets ivill not be good northbound on Train \'o. 5 , or southbound on Tram No. 4, except when reading to or from points north of Holland. See Time-Table and Schedule of Week-End Fares. Page Thirty-.\'ine.

TRANCis Parkman the historian, has paid tribute to the sovereign beauty of Mackinac Island, in these words: "The Island of Mackinac, owing 'i^C' to its situation, its beauty, and the fish which the surrounding waters supplied, had long been a favorite resort of Indians. It is about three miles wide. So clear are the waters of Lake Huron, which wash its shores, that one may count the pebbles at an incredible depth. The island is fenced round by white limestone cliffs, beautifully contrasting with the green foliage that half covers them, and in the center the land rises in woody heights. The rock which forms its foundation assumes fantastic shapes, — natural bridges, caverns, or sharp pinnacles, which at this day are pointed out as the curiosities of the region. Legends and superstitions attached a mysterious celebrity to the place, and here, it was said the fairies of Indian tradition might often be seen dancing upon the w hite rocks, or basking in the moonlight."

The Mackinac Island, which Parkman described, is the Mackinac Island of today, for fortunately the despoiling hand of commerce has spared it.

The Island of Mackinac is a well-kept park, main- tained by the State of Michigan. Its drives and walks are a delight. The State recently added anothei- memorial to one of Michigan's great men — General Lewis Cass — in the form of a statue. Hotel accommo- dations are all that could be desired, and the range ot price is such as to fit every purse.

A Happy Picnrc Pai

-^

ssr-

The Grand Hotel is the largest one there, and its location is also the most striking. There is a charm that lingers in the memory of all who have witnessed the view from the wide veranda looking across the sparkling waters of the Straits and toward the islands that dot them. Frank A. Nagel, of St. Louis, Mo., president of the Grand Hotel Company, and Charles j. Holden, Mackinac Island, resident manager, in charge of the Grand Hotel since 1910, will again con- duct it this year. Under their super\'ision nearly $100,000 have been expended in remodeling, redecorat- ing and refinishing the hotel. The improvements also include 100 additional bathrooms and the installation of hot and cold water in every guest room. New electric elevators and a steam-heating system have been installed. A buffet, a barber shop, ten-pin alleys, billiard halls and a casino are maintained also.

The hotel grounds comprise twenty acres. The building itself, which is of "Old Colonial"' style of architecture, is situated on an eminence which over- looks the Straits of Mackinac, giving by day or night an ever-changing and ever-interesting panoramic \iew of the commerce of the inland seas.

Within one hundred yards of the Grand Hotel there is a golf course, which, because of natural conditions, has been declared one of the sportiest golf links in the North.

The Grand Hotel will open July 1st and will positively remain open until September 20th, thus assuring hay-fever patients accommodation until after the expiration of the season of this malady.

St. Ignace, The Quaint

ON the extreme southci'n j^oint ol the mainland of the Upper Peninsula, w hich stretches out to what is known as the Straits of Mackinac, lies another spot hallowed in the history of Michigan — St. Ignace. This town was founded by

the great explorer, Pere Marquette, for whom was named the Railway System which serves more than three-fourths of the population of the State. Over the tomb of Father Marquette rises a simple marble shaft. In the little church are a number of interesting relics associated with the explorer and the mission of St. Ignace.

Sault Ste. Marie

l"y'T5]>jNUMERABLE water trips are offered from K*ld-. Mackinac Island, and for that matter from te J, Petoskey, but few are as interesting in the 1^^^^ 1 variety of the scenery unfolded as that to or from the city of Sault Ste. \larie, on the St. Mary's River. Colossal locks and ship canals have been con- structed on either side of the river to permit the safe navigation of this stream, where the rapids would make it impossible.

Petoskey

JHAT section which encompasses Petoskey and Bay

lJ) View has the form of a giant amphi-theater, of :^\ which Little Traverse Bay is the arena. There

■f'^ I are those traxelers, who, looking upon the blue waters for the first time. ha\e found in them the same iridescent sheen that marks those of the Bay of Naples. Such is the site upon which these two celebrated summer resorts are located.

Petoskey, a progressive city of about 8.000 inhabit- ants, is usually reinforced by a colony of summer visitors and cottagers of as many more during the summer season. It is the natural center of a pros- perous fruit and agricultural district. The city is well paved and maintained with scrupulous care. Few places are more beneficial to hay fever patients.

The country road system is being extended each year and offers many fine automobile drives. Chief among these is one to the Bliss Farm and the "Old Trail Tavern, " near Cross Village.

■1?^

^Tc^r^*?<«:lOli>:

Petoskey has several amusement places, including a large roller skating rink. A nine-hole golf course w ill be ready for the season's visitors.

The hotels are jointly capable of comfortably accommodating 3,000 guests. In addition, there are many desirable boarding houses, rooming houses and restaurants.

Hotel Cushman is a splendid hostelry, which, w hile open all the year round, caters particularly to the sum- mer tourists who "go North " each season. Itis situated on a rise of ground which overlooks Petoskey's beautiful central public park. Mr. W. L. McManus, Jr., will operate it again this season.

Hotel Perry, N. J. Perry, proprietor, and Clark's Tavern, Mrs. Alexander Clark, owner, are also popular tourist rendezvous.

Three flowing wells, which yield waters rich in their medicinal and curative properties in such maladies as rheumatism, etc., have recently been discovered. The grounds have been beautified into a park, con- crete approaches have been laid, and drinking fountains erected, these the gift of the women of Petoskey. Altogether, the beauty of the city has been enhanced considerably thereby.

Bay View

JERTAiN conditions make Bay View unique among ^T all the resorts of the region. During many ^1 years of growing popularity it has been the ' seat of a great assembly and summer university, this with natural beauties and the wide variety of sport provided, making a combination that is a powerful magnet to thousands. Its devotees call it the most beautiful summer town in the world. Wind- ing, shaded streets and hundreds of cottages rise in successive terraces from the \ery shore of Little

Traverse Bay. Upon a park-like campus face the public buildings of the university, including a $50,000 auditorium. On the beach below are tennis courts and a handsome casino, where a great swimming pool and fine bowling alleys ofTer sport. This year is to mark a real forward movement in assembly work. The brilliant program v\ill include musicians, entertainers and lecturers of uncommon distinction. At the same time, the university is at hand with a selected faculty and hundreds of students for summer work. It is this happy blend of cultivation, entertainment and sport in such attractive surroundings that make Bay View a delight to young and old. The university classes begin July Ibth, the assembly July 20th, and there is never a dull minute thereafter. A perfect sanitation, water and electric system, 500 cottages, easy access to all Bay resorts and such excellent, well- appointed and moderate-priced hotels as the Bay View House, Terrace Inn and Howard House assure comfort for all. Write to Mr. Thomas Gordon. Jr., Howell, Mich., for Bay View Bulletin.

Roaring Brook and Ramona Park

o more superb \'iew of the beauties of the Little SiJpv Traverse Bay and its admirable \irgin shores than can be obtained from Ramona Park or the Roaring Brook resorts. These resorts are situated on the cur\-e of the bay along the north shore. The communities of cottages are rather exclusive, although Hotel Ramona and Roaring Brook Inn cater to transient visitors. The former is situated on the shore of the bay: the latter is built on a high wooded bluff at some distance inland. The walks to and from these two resorts are through beautiful woodland.

Wequetonsing

UST a short distance farther is Wequetonsing — a

community of cottages. Many of these homes

are built facing the main shore drive, while

others are erected on the shelf of land just under

the bluff, running along the north shore of Little

Traverse Bay. Wequetonsing Hotel, managed by

Mrs. F. K. and A. A. Brubaker and Maple Grove Inn.

managed by Mrs. C. B. Gray, have proved popular

w ith the tourist.

West Wequetonsing adjoins Wequetonsing, and has a station of the Grand Rapids & Indiana summer suburban service. The Colonial Hotel, Mrs. C. H. Eaton, manager, is located at this point.

Harbor Springs

'kAiNS of the Grand Rapids & Indiana Railway

maintain a frequent service between Petoskey

and Harbor Springs. This latter \'illage is the

terminus of this line. The boats of the Little

Iraxcrse Bay line touch at all resort docks at hourly

intervals. Substantial improvements have been made

to the hotel accommodations during the past season.

The New Lmmet is the chief one. Tourists find much

of interest in the Old Mission church which was built

in the long ago for the uplifting of the Indians.

Across the little harbor is Harbor Point, which has ^ecome the summer home of those of wealth and eisure, who ha\e made it an e.\clusi\e residence resort. Many persons of prominence are entertained each

summer at the Harbor Point Club, which has develop- ed an enviable record under the management o Mr. F. H. Irish.

Forest Beach

RIVING westward from Harbor Springs station, through woods and over hills, takes the tourist to the Forest Beach Resort and Hotel. This alluring spot, which is on a slight eminence, overlooks Lake Michigan. There is a luxuriant growth of virgin forest consisting chiefly of cedar, beech and birch. The hotel gives excellent service.

Suburban Petoskey

bjp^TLATED in Petoskey s hinterland are numerous v^^' pleasant spots uhich may be reached from |i . _■ this point via The Grand Rapids & Indiana \sLz~\ Railway. Walloon Lake, on which are located many desirable hotels, is perhaps the most inviting of all. It lies south of Petoskey and northeast ol Charlevoix.

Oden is north and east and has some famous springs. Four miles from Petoskey is Wa-ya-ga-mug and Round Lake. On the shores of the latter the Indian play "Hiawatha" is enacted each summer. Thousands of visitors are attracted by the pla\'. Another throng takes the steamer of the Inland Route from Conway. No more devious trip is known to travelers the world over. The boat passes through Crooked Lake and Ri\er into Burt Lake and through Indian Ri\er to Mullet Lake and to Topinabee.

-^

jS-^

Here luncheon is ser\ed at the Inn, and afterward one may return to Conway, or a change of boats may he made and the trip continued down the Cheboygan Ri\er to Cheboygan. Inland Route of^ces are in Petoskey. From Cheboygan one may go to Bois Blanc Island, where Pointe aux Pins resort is found, and then to Mackinac Island.

Charlevoix - the - Beautiful

atmosphere of pure serenity welcomes the traveler alighting from the train at Charlevoi.x- the-Beautiful. There is none of the character- Lt--^! istics of the smoke-filled battlefields of modern industrial competition. It is a city given over entirely to genuine enjoyment.

Charlevoix-the-Beautiful is built on a series of three natural terraces. Lake Michigan rolls on its west- ward ; Round and Pine Lakes on its eastward wooded shores. All about there is an abundance of virgin wooded growth. On the south side of Round Lake ani.1 with Pine Lake to the east, the Charlevoix Homes Association holds a large tract of land. Civic enter- prise has anticipated every want. Water is supplied the city by a private system. Drainage and perfect sanitation are assured by a modern and complete sewer system.

Hotel Belvedere, owned by The Resort Association, accommodates 300 guests. The service is of the first order. Mr. R. P. Foley is the manager. The opening date is June 10th.

Across Round Lake, on the other shore, is the Chicago Resort. Transient guests are entertained at the club house when recommended by a member of the Association.

The Pere Marquette's attractive station faces Pine Lake, and from this point there is a broad a\enue which leads back from the station to the business tlistrict of Charlevoix —a mile aw ay. on the shore of

Lake Michigan. This street runs along the north shore of Round Lake and skirts the upper terrace, while on the left is seen the Chicago Resort. Across the sparkling waters of Round Lake one sees on the farther shore the terraces of the Charlevoix Summer Homes Association. North of the avenue is a large tract owned by the Charlevoix Resort Association, which lies between Pine Lake and Lake Michigan.

The Charlevoix Golf Club, which has been described by an eastern expert as the "Ekwanok of the West," extends northward across a ridge of low hills. It is an eighteen-hole course. The grounds are always well kept and are ever-inviting to the devotees of this out- door sport. Much money has been expended in improving this course and expert golfers from all over the country come to play upon it.

The Inn, which is one of the best appointed public resort hotels to be found anywhere, will again be under the management of Mr. A. I. Creamer, who also conducts the Highland Pines Inn. Southern F^ines, N. C. He will have with him the same efficient organization which has contributed much to the popularity of this resort. Upwards of 350 guests are accommodated here. Recent improvements and enlargements add to the attractiveness of The Inn. There are now sixty private suites, each with bath, while every floor is provided with public baths and lavatories. The date for the opening this year will be June 30th.

The Charlevoix Beach Hotel, owned and managed by Mr. J. S. Baker, has been enlarged since last season, and it is now a seven-story structure. Over $25,000 have been expended in beautifying the building and the grounds. This hotel is located on the Lake Michigan side of the city.

Other hotels are Hotel Michigan and 1 fotcl Charle- voix, and the Hallett House, on the avenue leading to Belvedere Station.

Good accommodations and moderate prices obtain at the numerous boarding-houses of the city. Detailed information on this subject will be found on the last pages of this booklet.

.A picturesque equestrian trail through the \'irgin forests adjacent to Charlevoix has challenged the admiration of every votary of this outdoor sport who has had the good fortune to ride upon it. A promi- nent Riding School will be represented. Experienced instructors will have charge of the work.

One of the distinctive features of The Inn is the big swimming pool, which is being patronized by thousands each year. The pool is kept filled with filtered water from Lake Michigan, flowing constantly, and maintained at a temperature that makes a plunge a delight at all times. It is also a safe place for the little ones who are learning how to swim and the mothers have not been slow in appreciating this. Competent instructors are always in attendance.

-Attractive furnished houses and cottages, for the month or the season, may be secured in Charlevoix or neighboring resorts. A list of these may be found on the last pages of this book, and any additional infor- mation will be gladly given by Mr. F. V. Alexander, Ticket Agent of the Pere Marquette at Charlevoix.

While Charle\-oix is in th; heart of the Northern Michigan resort country, it is surrounded by a territory honeycombed with other desirable resorts. Sixteen miles north is Petoskey; twelve to twenty -five miles to the south is the Intermediate Lake Region, easily accessible for a day's fishing through the special summer train ser\ice of the Pere N'larquette; eastward is the Pine Lake Country, where lie Boyne City, East Jordan and Walloon Lake.

During the summer the gas-electric motor ser\'ice of the Pere Marquette offers resorters frequent trains

during the day and evening between Belvedere, Charlevoix and Petoskey-Bay View. At the last named point connection is made with dummy trains over the Grand Rapids & Indiana Railway for Harbor Springs, Wequetonsing, Roaring Brook, Wa-ya-ga- mug, Oden and Walloon Lake. Two steamers make daily trips to the head of Pine Lake, and another boat goes frequently to the historic Beaver Islands, lying in Lake Michigan, northw est of Charlevoix.

Resorts of Pine Lake

_^2L

WHITE-WINGED Craft and yachtsmen as well as motor boats and motor boatmen, in countless numbers preempt Pine Lake during the sum- - ■^^^' mer months, as magnificent an expanse of blue waters as is to be found in .America. This lake stretches eastward from Charlevoix-the-Beautiful. It separates into two arms — the south and east bays. On the former nestles East Jordan: on the latter, Boyne City. East Jordan is reached by the trains of the East Jordan & Southern Railw ay, which connect with the Pere Marquette Railway at Bellaire, or by daily steamer from Charle\oix.

Restfulness and excellent fishing grounds are among the advantages which both Charlevoix and East Jordan offer. The immediate streams and lakes are the haunts of trout, bass, pike, muskellunge, and other fish. Mr. R. A. Brintnall. Secretary of the East Jordan Board of Trade, w ill gi\e such infor- mation as is required.

Boyne City is reached by boat from Charlevoix. The quiet and peaceful aspect of this place blends well with the beauties of the adjacent country, reminding one of New England.

Intermediate Lakes

LMOST parallel to the east shore of Grand Traverse Bay from Williamsburg to Charlevoix, extend- ing at some distance inland, in an almost — -' Linhroken chain, are what are known as the ntermediate Lakes. Along the shores of these pictur- esque bodies of water are hundreds of points of in- terest to the summer visitor, the angler or the hunter.

Elk Rapids, at the outlet of the Intermediate Lakes — so popular with those who like an extended canoe trip — is situated on the east arm of Grand Traverse Bay. It is in the center of the Grand Tra\'erse fruit region. The land about Elk Rapids is high; the water is pure; the climate is healthful and the fishing is excellent.

.\leguzee Point Resort, just south of Elk Rapids, on Elk Lake, is a recent bidder for popular favor among the summer visitors. It is delightfully sit- uated, and is the first "port of call" for the Interme- diate Lake steamers.

Boarding the little steamer at Elk Rapids, one sails through Elk Lake and Round Lake, into Torch Ri\er stopping at Torch River Bridge where Bingham's Torch Lake Inn. a new and well conducted summer hotel, is situated and then out upon Torch Lake (Old Torch), and across to .Alden. On the way from Elk Rapids the boat stops at Rex Terrace and Skegemog Point. These resorts issue booklets descriptive of their advantages. After a pause at Alden (and some- times a change of boats), the trip up Torch Lake may

:g?

Ready for a Big One

be resumed. The first stop is at Lone Tree Point. three miles from Aiden. This attractive resort is a favorite with Chicago people. Beyond Lone Tree is Clam Ri\er entrance, and a half mile north of it is the Pere Marquette Beach Hotel, deservedly popular with residents of Chicago, Detroit and Ohio points.

Coming back to Clam River, the steamer once or twice a week continues on into Clam Lake, into Grass River and Grass Lake, and to the end of the trip at Bellaire. There are several fishing camps on Grass Lake where are found good entertainment and excel- lent sport among the finny tribes.

Lake View Resort, also on the east side of the lake, is a homelike place, and has been improved with new detached bungalows. On the west shore is Miley's Lodge, a new cottage resort.

Hayo-Went-Ha Camp for boys, conducted by the State Committee of the Young Men's Christian Associations and recognized as one of the foremost in the world, begins its fourteenth season with the summer of 1917. The camp is located on Torch Lake, the largest and one of the most beautiful inland bodies of water in Michigan. Mr. F. P. Knapp will again act as camp director and associated with him will be men of national reputation in work with boys. The equipment of the camp is as fine as can be found anywhere, including a clubhouse, spacious dining lodge, tennis courts, baseball diamond, boats, etc. Fifty-five acres of wooded land away from resort influences make it an ideal camping spot.

Boys ha\e been in attendance from over 150 cities and towns and a large percentage of them return year after year.

Parents desiring to send their boys to Hayo- Went-Ha should write Mr. C. W. Kirkpatrick, Secre- tary, 411 .'\ssociation Building, Detroit, Mich.

Beyond Bellaire, the fishing along the Intermediate chain is the delight of the angler. Stopping at Central Lake Station and taking a launch, one is taken to Fisk's Lodge, managed by Mrs. C. B. Fisk. This is a rallying point for fishermen who like the royal sport of bass and muskellunge angling. At the head of the chain of lakes is Ellsworth village. E.xcellent fishing and competent guides are also found here.

Fisherman's Paradise, near Bellaire, Mich., is a rendezvous of sportsmen. Mr. H. D. Smith, uho conducts this family resort, has recently made exten- sive improvements to his property including the construction of a new and picturesque log and stone bungalow dining room, providing seating accommo- dations for 200. [-"onies have been added to the equipment for the entertainment of the children. The bathing beach is safe.

Good fishing is found at practically all the resorts along the Intermediate Lakes, and the experienced fisherman will travel far before reaching a district which will yield him equal results. There are many trout streams in this region.

Suitable camping sites a-plenty are found along the Intermediate Lakes almost anywhere. Each year sees an ever-increasing number of these lovers of life in the outdoor pitching their camps in the wooded slopes running back from the open water front Ideal bathing beaches and hundreds of cold springs of crystal water are to be found almost everywhere. In many cases parties of twenty-five to seventy-fi\e are formed in cities miles away to take up some favored

camping spot in the Intermediate Lake section. These camp sites are easily accessible from the railroad. Steamer and launch facilities enable campers to get to the towns as desired. The steamers Ruth and Mabel perform service between Elk Rapids and Clam Ri\er, touching at all intermediate resorts.

Grand Traverse Bay

HAT summerland, known as Northwestern Michi- gan, has Traverse City for its principal gateway and capital.

Tra\erse City is situated at the head of beautiful Grand Traverse Bay, a body of water thirty- five miles long and from fi\e to six miles in width. Its beaches are wide, sandy and safe for bathing or boating. In addition, there is all that can be desired by the most exacting artistic temperament. The sunsets have a diversity of coloring that would be declared unreal on an artist's canvas.

No less than thirty-two inland lakes are found within easy distances of the city. On each of these, resorts have been developed. They are accessible by train, boat or automobile. Good roads ha\e been and are still being built. Special drives — se\en in number — ha\e been mapped out, making it possible to leave in the morning by automobile, motor all day and return to Tra\erse City by a different route in the evening.

Near-by streams afford good German brown and rainbow trout fishing. Write the Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, Traverse City. Mich., for booklet.

The Traverse City Golf and Country Club main- tains a nine-hole 3000-yard course and a large, com- modious club house which has just been completed. This latter is situated on the brow of a hill and com- mands a view of Boardman Lake, Traverse City and both arms of Grand Traverse Bay.

The course has been pronounced by experts one of the most wonderful in the country, as all the hazards are natural and of a kind that challenges the skill of the expert and stimulates the desire of accomplish- ment in those not so proficient. The drive from the fourth tee. on the brow of the Lake overlooking Boardman Lake, to the fourth hole, over Boot Lake is a drop of 100 feet. Syd. J. Cooper, open golf champion of Indiana, has been secured as professional.

For further information address the secretary. Mr. K. D. Lewis, Traverse City, Mich.

The steamer "Mary Ethel" will make close connec- tions with "The Resort Special" to and from Bowers Harbor, Ne-ah-ta-wanta and Old Mission.

The Pere Marquette and the Traverse City, Leelanau & Manistique Railway operate a through sleeping car ser\ice between Chicago and Tra\erse City. Omena and Northport during the tourist season. Direct automobile service is provided between Sutto.ns Bay and Leland at reasonable rates.

Ne-ah-ta-wanta. Edgewood and Old Mission resorts are on the peninsula that projects into Grand Tra\erse Bay. These can be reached also by a dri\e from Traverse City.

Ne-ah-ta-wanta is a family resort consisting of a number of very attractive cottages. Among the varied attractions of this popular resort are golf, bowling, tennis, boating, fishing and bathing on a safe sandy beach.

Edgewood is a quiet family resort with excellent board and accommodations in rooms and in furnished cottages. Edgewood Cottage Resort, with a central dining hall, is farther south. Miss Lucy D. Lewis is manager.

as also the Leelanau Resort, w ith its hotel and cottages. Just south of Omena village is Hotel Clovers, a cottage resort of the first order, which is managed by Mr, William W. Foltz.

The Northport Point Cottage Resort lies at the outer entrance to the big bay. Cedar Lodge affords excellent accommodations to the tourists and visitors at Northport Point.

Inland from Traverse City

AMONG the numerous and beautiful lakes found inland from Traverse City, few can compare with Lake Leelanau or Long Lake to the north and west; Green and Duck lakes at Interlochen on the main line of the Pere Marquette; Platte Lakes and Crystal Lake, near the shore of Lake Michigan at Frankfort ; and Lake Ann and Tra\erse Lake Resort, on the Manistee & Northeastern out of Tra\erse City.

The Glen Lake region has a number of attracti\'e and comfortable homes that afford accommodations for the tourist and the sportsman. Glen Lake is well stocked with bass, lake trout, pickerel and perch. The streams which empty into the lake teem with brook trout. Out in Lake Michigan there is oppor- tunity for deep-water fishing.

Lake Leelanau and Leland

' V T'ORTHWE.ST of Tra\erse City, twenty miles or l'^ - thereabouts, on a narrow strip of land lying '.J- between Lake Michigan and Lake Leelanau

i C- (Carp Lake), lies Leland. This place, which

has many natural allurements for the angler and tourist, is reached from Traverse City by the Manistee & Northeastern Railroad to Fouch, and boarding the steamer "Leelanau," of which Capt. J. Ver Snyder is master, for a delightful water trip of two hours' duration. There is an attractive landscape all the way.

To the south of Sylvan Beach is Michillinda. a cottage resort located on Lake Michigan. The Mich- illinda Pines and the Fernwood are two splendid hotels which cater to the summer tourist trade.

Three miles south of Whitehall is Duck Lake Resort, on the shore of Duck Lake.

North of Whitehall, and on the north shore of White Lake, is the sister village of Montague. The chiet hotels and summer resorts are: The Franklin House, Sylvan Beach Hotel, Murray's Inn, The Catalpas and The Fernw,ood. Other resorts nearby are Johnson's and Idlew'ild, also located on White Lake.

Eleven miles north of Whitehall, and half a mile east of Lake Michigan, is Stony Lake, whose waters are deep and always cold. This lake is reached by the Pere Marquette to Shelby, and a drive of six miles west to the lake.

Pentw ater

3^1NE-CLAD hills surround Pentwater, a delightful holiday point on Lake Michigan. Pentwater Lake is a near-by inland expanse of blue waters. This latter body of water, which is about two miles long, and connected with Lake Michigan by a broad channel, has a heavily wooded shore, where innumerable sites for summer homes and camps are to be found.

^

Pentwater is a progressive city of 1,500 people, situated in Oceana County, one of the leading farming and fruit counties in the United States. There is an excellent harbor. Government piers, a lighthouse and life-saving station, all of which add to the picturesque- ness of the place. Near by are numerous cottage resorts, of which Oceana, Pentwater Beach, Camp- bell and Garrison Park resorts are the principal ones. Pentwater is the terminus of the AUegan-Pentwater branch of the Pere Marquette Railway.

The civic spirit of Pentwater is exemplified by the Boosters' Club, of which V. P. Weidensee is corre- sponding secretary. Communications directed to him for literature, etc., will receive prompt attention.

Pere Marquette steamer No. 7 will make trips between Pentwater and Ludington and Manistee twice daily.

Bass Lake Park is situated five miles from Pent- water. This resort community, situated on Bass Lake, has two good hotels which give the best of service at moderate prices.

St. Joseph Mineral Baths

WITH a $b5.000 structure, the Hotel Whitcomb Mineral Baths, which adjoin the hotel itself, '<^^[ SlTc situated on an eminence which commands 8&55J 3 .^jg^, Qf Lake Michigan. Absolutely sanitary conditions prevail throughout. Special structural glass has been used for the floors, walls and partitions. The system of ventilation is the most perfect known. There are two distinct departments, one for men and one for women.

in cases of rheumatism, etc. Write R. T.

Laughery, Manager.

Hotel Saltzman has also a well-equipped bath-house. The baths are under the direction of Dr. W. E. Saitz- man, and patients have the advantage of the care of a specialist in rheumatic and nervous diseases.

Eastman Park Springs offer hotel accommodations, and its new mud baths in addition to the usual mineral baths and the waters from the curative springs in the forty-acre park, owned by the Eastman Springs Company.

Detroit Mineral Baths

INERAL water of wonderful curative properties was discovered about four years ago on the property owned by J. R. Hayes, adjoining the Wayne Hotel, Detroit, Mich. The water is ol a sulpho-saline nature and its efficacy is demon- strated in cases of rheumatism, blood and skin diseases, nervous troubles, dyspepsia, gout, neuritis, etc.

Located right on the river front, the Wayne Hotel and Mineral Baths are especially attractive to people who wish to visit Detroit solely for pleasure and recreation or to regain their health through hydro- therapeutic measures.

Mr. J. R. Hayes, proprietor, will gladly mail you an illustrated booklet on request.

CAMPING IN MICHIGAN

Baldwin is the mecca of sportsmen. Within easy access are no less than twenty-seven small lakes and trout streams, innumerable camping spots and one of the most delightful water- ways that offer attractions for the canoeist — the Pere Marquette River. Baldwin annually entertains a number of Outing Clubs. It is one of the highest spots in western Michigan. The Baldwin Commercial Club, an organization of business men of the community, provides free camping sites on any of the lakes and arranges accommodations for visitors. Write Mr. H. W. Davis, Secretary, Baldwin. Mich.

HER mighty lakes, like oceans of liquid silver; her mountains with their bright aerial tints; her valleys teeming with wild fertility ; her tremendous cataracts thundering in their solitudes ; her boundless plains, waving with spontaneous verdure; her broad deep rivers, rolling in solemn silence to the ocean; her trackless forests, where vegetation puts forth all its magnificence; her skies, kind- ling with the magic of summer clouds and glorious sunshine; — no, never need an American look beyond his country for the sublime and beautiful in natural scenery."
