 Lake
Gogebic, Michigan's largest inland lake, lies at
the far western end of the Upper Peninsula. With abundant
opportunities for fishing, hiking, hunting, camping,
and winter sports, Lake Gogebic is a four-season
vacation gem that - for all its attractions - retains
the peaceful atmosphere of a small Northwoods community,
untroubled by traffic and crowds.
Lake Gogebic's 13,380 acres of prime fishing water
teem with walleye, smallmouth bass, northern pike, jumbo
perch and whitefish, providing both catches for the
novice and challenges for the veteran angler. The surrounding
forests offer prime hunting for deer, bear, small game
and birds.
Families, couples, and outdoor sports enthusiasts will
enjoy Lake Gogebic's summer hot spots for water sports,
camping, sightseeing and hiking the surrounding timberland.
The area is full of historic sites and natural beauty.
Wildflowers and wildlife are everywhere in spring and
summer, the autumn colors are spectacular, and winters
are as white and still as one can only imagine. Waterfalls
abound - with some hidden deep in the woods, and
others easily accessible from town. Honeymooners will
enjoy searching out the more remote falls, while families
will appreciate that Lake Superior's shores are but
a short drive away.
With an annual snowfall of nearly 300 inches,
Lake Gogebic is situated on perhaps the best snowmobile
trail system in the country, extending throughout
the Upper Peninsula. Cross country ski trails provide
quieter passage through the woods, meanwhile five major
downhill ski / snowboarding facilities are less than
a hour's drive away. And for those seeking a truly unique
winter sport experience, many local businesses rent
snowshoes.
The nights are frequently graced by the Northern Lights
or a distant wolf's cry. In town, the dress is casual
and the attitudes friendly. Local businesses offer
lodging for any size
group, for any length of time, year-round, guaranteeing
you are sure to find accommodations to fit your taste
and budget.
