im from the detroit area but i love it up there in the UP. my friends uncle has a sweet cabin he built near newberry i have stayed at a couple times its awesome.i would move there if i could but i dont think jobs are too hot and im not much of a logger lol.
in august i went there and stayed at a place called halfway lake resort right by oswalds bear ranch. the mosquitos are terrible up there man i would take a lil boat out on the lake at the resort to burn a log and get swarmed by those buggers!
