The name is deceiving - although it used to be all sandy, the last few years of very high water levels in Lake Superior has pulled all the sand elsewhere. After a walk down 80 steps, you can relax on the rocks and watch the kids swim or practice your skipping skills with the rocks. It is a perfect places to spend a summer afternoon.

Stop in at the mine to visit their well stocked gift shop and to book a tour into the mine. It is worth setting aside a couple hours to experience the life of the miners who settled in this area. Some of the hardships they faced are difficult to imagine in this age of advanced technology.

Our recommendation for food is the brisket or fillet if it is available, but skip the cheesecake - not worth the calories in our opinion.

Slim's Cafe is a logical breakfast stop on your way to Bohemia (or the Keweenaw). It recently changed owners and the new owner is a brother of Adam's best friend. We have been up there several times since they opened and have not been disappointed. The last time we were there the Cini-mini breakfast was on special, and if it is available it will be my go-to meal. An egg and meat choice are the extras to a sliced cinnamon roll French toast. Just delicious! Go in and visit and let Al & Sandra know that Adam & Amy sent you up.

This is a building that is near and dear to my heart. I have several hockey players - one has completed his youth and high school hockey, but the others still call this barn their "HOME" rink.
This spring we received such a wonderful gift in winning the Kraft Hockeyville 2019 contest. The Colosseum will be hosting a pre-season game between the Detroit Red Wings and the St. Louis Blues this September. Our little town is buzzing with such positivity about this event coming to town.
