With some great day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore all that Alpena Township, 17 miles away, has to offer. Soak up the sights beginning with Mich-E-Ke-Wis Park, Northern Lights Arena and Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary. Don’t miss Rogers City either! Just 45 miles away, Ocqueoc Falls, P.H. Hoeft State Park and Rogers City Marina are must-sees here.
