Occupying the southern shore of Lake Superior, Munising has lots to boast – Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Hiawatha National Forest, Grand Island National Recreational Area, and several lighthouses set against picturesque backdrops. The city’s sparse population and plentiful attractions make it a superb year-round vacation destination. While summertime visits here can be enjoyed wading through the lakeshore as well as forests, holidays in the winter can be spent engaging in a vast number of activities, such as skiing, snowmobiling, ice fishing, ice climbing, and whatnot! So, don’t wait any longer and get your planning started right away. The cabins in Munising are a great choice for first-time travelers. But let’s not limit your options yet.
