Daniel and I love to visit Boyne Valley whenever we are in the area! It's a great place to sip wine, enjoy the fall colors, and pet the pups who hang out there.
Titled after the charming lights that run along the streets, this area of downtown Petoskey has been known for its shopping for more than 100 years. Home to dozens of independent shops and restaurants, this area also provides a great view of Little Traverse Bay.
Whenever we take a trip up north, whether it be sailing or a quick getaway, we always make time to stop by Beards. We enjoy sitting on the outdoor patio that overlooks Little Traverse Bay.
Fall is Emma's favorite season and there is no better place to enjoy the changing colors than Northern Michigan. There are a number of areas nearby the go for a hike and enjoy the outdoors and all that the season has to offer.
