This budding community has seen some
expansion in recent years. Modern comforts, newly paved roads,
docks and vast restoration have changed the face of this small
town, making it much more accessible for visitors.
Beaver Island is still decidedly small, only about 500 year round
residents, and nature is still the number one priority for visitors.
Surrounding the tiny town are rocky shores and convenient docks
for those who want to hit Superior’s waters. It is not rare
to encounter local wildlife, so just be warned. The community
itself is warm and welcoming, there are a few local pubs, restaurants,
and museums to get yourself acquainted.
Winters are obviously rough, but if you can stand a trip, check
out the ice caves, weird formations that pop up on the outskirts
of town. |
