With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to explore all that Gladwin, 18 miles away, has to offer. Among the first stops you make here should be Lakeside Golf Course, Lake Lancer and Sugar Springs Golf Club. Don’t skip Mount Pleasant either! Just 30 miles away, Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort, Soaring Eagle Waterpark and Ziibiwing Center of Anishinabe Culture and Lifeways are must-sees here.
