Welcome to Northern Michigan
Food scene
Rocks Landing is a great place for a special night out. Located directly on Crystal Lake, you have great views and food. You'll definitely want reservations. There are three different seating areas, inside, on the porch,( I ususally book on the porch because if the weather is bad your reservation won't be cancelled.) or outside which is great too, weather permitting.

Attractions
Old fashion fun, five minutes from the house. There is a playground and mini golf, nothing fancy. They also sell snacks. There are two movies and it doesn't get dark until about 9:30 so expect a late night or early morning if you do both movies. It is a popular attraction so you'll want to get there earlier than 9:00.
