ADVENTURE
Elk, Gourmet Dinner and
Wine Tasting Experience....
Just a short drive from Alpena
you will stumble upon an adventure
so unique you’ll want to make sure
you don’t forget your camera. Thunder
Bay Resort in nearby Hillman is
home to Michigan’s only elk viewing
carriage ride and gourmet dinner
with wine tasting. The experience is
one-of-a-kind and has been voted a
USA Today “10 Best” and Fox News
Online “Top 10 Sleigh Rides in North
America”. There is nothing else like it
east of the Rocky Mountains. Step
back in time to life on the frontier in
the mid-1800’s. The outing is literally
over the river and through the woods
carried on carriages or sleighs drawn
by massive draft horses, to see elk in
the resort’s 160-acre Elk Preserve.
While you say hello to the elk,
Grandma Jan’s son, Spencer, is at
the Elk Antler Cabin busily preparing
a five-course gourmet feast on
100-year-old wood cook stoves. Furnished
in period antiques and trophy
mounts, the cabin is the perfect
backdrop for dinner and a sampling
of wines from nearby wineries in Alpena.
It’s a perfect venue for storytelling
and learning about these magnificent
animals. This must-do activity
is available from mid-May through
March. Call (800)729-9375 for more
information.
