Petoskey
One of the communities of Michigan's North Coast, Petoskey is located on the shores of Lake Michigan's beautiful Little Traverse Bay in northwest lower Michigan. Long a resort area, Petoskey is known for its fresh air, spectacular beauty and, of course, Michigan's state stone, the Petoskey Stone.
History buffs will love the varied historic architecture of Petoskey and its neighbor, the Bay View Association - an area so unique that the entire community has been declared a National Historic Landmark. One of the little gems for history lovers is the Little Traverse History Museum, which includes exhibits that feature Ernest Hemingway's life in Michigan
Wonderful dining and quaint shops are an added bonus year 'round, and in the winter, this is paradise for skiers and snowboarders.
