LAKE MICHIGAN COAST

A field guide to the Lake Michigan Coast: time-honored holiday destinations, cozy towns and glittering cities on the shoreline. Inside Wildsam Lake Michigan Coast, you’ll find the best of a beloved realm of water, woods, tradition and creativity. Our guide leads all the way around the big lake, with stops in rare natural landscapes and the towns and cities that make the Upper Midwest a byword in hospitality.

No two trips are the same. Its range of color is amazing. Concrete grays. Caribbean aquamarines. Nighttime sailing is one of my favorites—when you get all of the stars in July. Northern lights, occasionally.” —Mike Martin, ferryboat captain 128 pages, printed in the U.S.A Back-pocket size, 4 x 6.5 inches Featuring more than 100 local selections Editor Brian KevinIllustrations Ryan DugganContributing Writers & Editors Samantha Alviani, Drew Dawson, Jennifer Justus, Cara McDonald, Nylah Muhammad and Mae StierOriginal Essays by Wade Rouse and Andrew J.
