I'm forever in awe of the amazing wildlife we get to experience right outside our front door. While the Great Blue Heron isn't that uncommon, this is my first time seeing one at the resort. Isn't it funny how there are certain experiences in our lives that we can picture perfectly? I remember the first time I ever saw a blue heron. Bob … [Read more...]
How to see Tahquamenon Falls, a true Michigan Wonder
One of the most visited attractions in Michigan's Upper Peninsula is Tahquamenon Falls State Park. Breathtaking views and awe-inspiring power as fresh water gushes over. And with such a high rainfall this year the root beer colored rapids are exceptionally mighty. Tahquamenon Falls simply never disappoints...even on a chilly, cloud covered day … [Read more...]
Is it worth it? Tahquamenon Falls Brewery & Pub
A recent trip out as a tourist in our own neck of the woods had me really wanting to scope out the Tahquamenon Falls Brewery & Pub. Located at the Upper Falls amongst the gift shop and several small outside eateries, it has a sweet rustic appeal that fits perfectly with the outdoorsy décor. I'm not going to blab on for too long before … [Read more...]
Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum & Whitefish Point
Making the decision to go back to bedside nursing instead of taking on more responsibility as a Quality Improvement nurse has had its perks. I've finally felt like I've been able to enjoy parts of the Upper Peninsula that were barely within my reach because I was so limited on time. Weekends were it and by the time resort stuff was taken care of … [Read more...]
Twin Cedars goes field trippin’ – Oswald’s Bear Ranch
It's so fun to be a tourist in the U.P. It's only taken us 3 seasons to be able to get out and enjoy our surroundings and some of the area attractions. Oswald's Bear Ranch is about 30 to 45 minutes from Twin Cedars Resort. It's a fairly quick stop but you could mosey about for as long as your heart desires. We did this trip on our way to … [Read more...]
Meet our Fleet and the newest (boat) addition!
Once upon a time there was a boy who loved to fish. He loved to fish so much that he grew up and bought a bass boat. The boy loved the bass boat. He felt that he would always have a bass boat that he could fish from with his friends and family and participate in tournaments with. Then one day the boy, now a man, bought a sweet little fishing … [Read more...]
2nd Annual Kayak Bass Tournament at Twin Cedars Resort
Father's Day is now slotted for our Annual Kayak Bass Tournament. With the 2nd event here for 2017 we were hoping for some better weather but just like traditions are started and carried on at the resort, we sure wouldn't like wind and rain as a constant every year. But no such luck, this year was once again cold and wet but the mood was certainly … [Read more...]
The Best Fishing Bait: artificial or live?
Fishermen don't often give away what they're fishing with...at least not what's actually catching the fish. Pulling some of this information from Bob was not easy. He told me I wasn't allowed to write a blog post about fishing bait or lures because he didn't want everyone to know his secrets. (I've just summoned an eye roll thinking about that … [Read more...]
The Northern Lights are sorta disappointing…
Viewing the northern lights should be on your bucket list. If you're a morning person like me then you might've struggled with even staying up late enough to view them on a good night. I'm not sure what it is, I just like being around and about when the sun is shining. Of course it wasn't always like that but I guess growing older does those things … [Read more...]
Resort Life Update and finally, our kitchen shelves!
Ok, so it's not completely done but it's so close that I simply just couldn't contain myself any longer. You guys wanted some kind of kitchen progress report since our last resort life update, right? I feel like I've waited my whole life for this moment. It's seriously right up there with getting married and having a baby. Our resort house kitchen … [Read more...]
