For more than 90 years, the Belvedere Golf Club in Charlevoix has been a historic landmark in Northern Michigan, and this summer the club, members, and local officials paid tribute to that history with a re-dedication ceremony.

Michigan is loaded with terrific ski and riding areas. No matter where you go in the state, from the southeast corner by Detroit to the northwest corner in the Upper Peninsula, you’ll find outstanding slopes.

The three Petoskey Area resorts — Boyne Highlands, Boyne Mountain, and Nub’s Nob — have a total of nearly 170 downhill runs.

No matter what your ability, there are more than enough to keep you coming back for more. When you step off the slopes, the four communities of Petoskey, Harbor Springs, Bay Harbor, and Boyne City beckon with shops, restaurants, music, and warm northern Michigan hospitality. Since all…
