The Rose Retreat - Northport, MI
Hiking Trails
This is my favorite hiking trail. It is short or as long as you want it to be. Once parked, I usually go to the left and continue left out to the water. Once I get there I take my shoes off and leave them in the sand under a tree to mark where I need to return. Then I walk to the right all the way to the point that juts out - and there is where I find Petoskey Stones! I have found them each time I take this trail - I can't guarantee you will, but you are likely to. You can also go to the Overlook which is a bit of climbing, but gives you a birds eye view of Lake Michigan.
If you go right when at the parking lot - it will take you along Mud Lake. The trail is a bit longer and also a good route for those who love a good hike.

Short walk from the Rose Retreat. Great trail for snowshoeing. Easy walk downtown after your hike for a bit to eat. Highly recommend!

This is a prime spot for sunsets in Northport. It is only 6 miles from the Rose Retreat and worth the short drive. There are many steps - just throwing that out there if you have mobility issues. Otherwise, a true gem.
