Visitors walk a short gravel trail before descending the 168 steps to the very bottom of the waterfall. There are a few viewing platforms if you don't want to go down that far (or need a break to catch your breath on the way up). The waterfall is magnificent, especially after it's been raining and it's at full flow. Great spot for photos.

Great falls multi level. instead of heading back to the car go the other way further down the path to the beach .. yep couple more flights of stairs to the beach and dunes.

If they slip ... it would be scary.

We decided to visit the Falls today as it is only about a half hour from our current campground…read more You do have to have a state of Michigan recreation pass you can either buy an annual pass or just the day pass which we did which was $12 for out-of-state It is only about a quarter mile walk back through the woods, bring some bug spray and you'll get a decent view of the fall, but if you really want to get a little closer, you'll need to take the pretty long ramp way, which is wheelchair friendly to get all the way down to a huge viewing platform to get the picture that we took The path is all wide and paved, and even on a Thursday mid morning, it was pretty busy Today was a little marked by the fact that there is a lot of smoke and ash from the Canadian wild fires drifting over into the upper Peninsula, but we still were able to get a decent view Parking was free, although the lot is not very large so plan accordingly. There is also pretty limited cell phone service, from Verizon anyway, on the way out here so make sure you've got your maps downloaded. Clean restrooms are at the entrance to the trail as well

We had all ages and ability levels, slightly disappointed in the kayaks that they chose for our group we had a few big guys and one of them got stuck with a small kayak= really hard to stay upright. There wasn't really any place on the route to get out and picnic or swim in with little kids. We ended up in someone's back yard, which was o.k. but awkward. The water was very deep. This is not the owners fault, just something to keep in mind following lots of rain in the season. Great time had by all, much longer trip than we were expecting due to really slow moving water the second half of the river.

Leading with the positives, seeing the black bears so up close felt good. There were no kids in our…read moregroup but I enjoyed seeing the kids so thrilled to watch and feed bears. The refuge area ( separate for adult males, adult females and cubs) seems large and natural enough to provide a comfortable refuge to the bears. There is a beautiful serene lake on the property and felt very peaceful spending some time there. Though we enjoyed watching the bears, the experience seemed overpriced and a little unfriendly. We paid $30 for the car( only cash allowed) and then there was additional $4 for the bag of apples and $10 for the photoshoot with the cub.for the area the ranch covers and average time spent there , I feel at-least one pic or the bag of apples could be included in the $30 ticket price. The instructions at the photo-booth about the cost of recapturing a pic seemed borderline rude to me. I understand that people can get particular about their pics but I am sure there are friendlier ways to get your point across: Most of the trails around the bears enclosures do not have any signs, and we only found text about the ranch and the bears at the very end. All in all, can be a good spot for kids and bear enthusiasts. Nor for people who are looking for a safari kind of experience.

I knew prior it would be an educationally fun environment, but I had no idea just how meaningful it would be.

Participating in the entire process of preping the team for the run was the real deal when it comes to life experiences. Kim, with her competent staff, have really thought of everything in developing this amazing program. This is not just her business, this (and these dogs) are her life! You will not be disappointed.

We got to put on their booties. The other dogs were so excited, wishing they would be picked. We got to drive the sled and to sit in the basket.

You get to pet and play with them for approximately 30 minutes, then you watch a video about the Alaskan races so you have a better understanding of how they work, how the dogs are raised, super helpful video! Laura is super accomplished and has great stories about these dogs and the races they have run so bring your questions! You then take a short walk back into the woods where the Guide reviews the adult dogs skills and examples of some of the race experiences that they have. It really is a very impressive place and you are honestly doing a great service and that you are helping to socialize these dogs. You can book online on their website in advance or we were able to just walk in at the appropriate time on a weekday You do need to allocate about an hour and a half for the entire experience and it looks like they take up to 45 people.
