Read on for a little bit of Escanaba, Cedar River & Menominee area… including a couple of lighthouses, a fave breakfast place, wine tasting, and an old timey burger joint! From Marquette, this was about a 2.25 hour drive one-way, but it felt much less with stops along the way.

Read MoreOne of my favorite adventures in Marquette is to Dead River Falls! It’s a super quick and easy drive from downtown Marquette (about 14 minutes) and only 7 minutes from our local Target, haha! If you’re looking to get to this waterfall… Google Maps will take you right there. Also be sure to check out Reany Falls on your way in or out too!

It was a great day of fall color, local history, a lighthouse in the distance, a fun dive bar, and conversation with the local Yoopers. Add Summit Peak and Lake of the Clouds to your visit… for the most amazing autumn views! Read on for my time in Ontonagon!
