Petoskey Featured in "101 Best Outdoor Towns"

Petoskey is an ideal place for lovers of the outdoors, as recently confirmed by former Men's Journal editors Sarah Tuff and Greg Melville, who feature Petoskey in their recently released book, "101 Best Outdoor Towns."

In a nod to our "million dollar" sunsets, the authors state that "The Caribbean has nothing over the view from town as the sun extinguishes into Lake Michigan behind the creamsicle horizon." Looking for a romantic getaway? Pair the gorgeous sunsets along with "the back-in-time feel of the artsy downtown Gaslight District, the long beach walks and the views of Little Traverse Bay from the top of sandy Old Baldy, and you've got one of the most romantic spots in the Midwest."

Speaking of outdoor options, the authors point to the Little Traverse Wheelway bicycle path, the North Country Scenic Trail and the Petoskey State Park for hiking, fishing, swimming and paddling on area lakes and rivers, and downhill and cross country skiing at area resorts and trails. Our area has so much to offer outdoor enthusiasts. Petoskey's recognition as one of the "101 Best Outdoor Towns" is well deserved.
