Charlevoix The Beautiful
Charlevoix Fountain of Youth:An interactive, heated fountain in Charlevoix’s East Park designed as a playscape for young children. Open for play every day between 10 a.m. and 9 p.m.; there’s a nightly display at 9:30 p.m., when the water is programmed to “dance” to a music and light show.

Charlevoix the Beautiful, as this charming town bills itself, sits between Lake Charlevoix and Lake Michigan. Historic storefronts add to the city’s character, as do annual plantings of petunias that line Bridge Street (the city’s main thoroughfare). You won’t find big box stores in Charlevoix, but you will find an eclectic mix of locally owned shops, boutiques and galleries. The beautiful marina is adjacent to a waterfront park with a band shell for outdoor performances. VISITCHARLEVOIX.COM.
DON’T MISS: Venetian Festival, July 18–25—The 84th annual Venetian Fest will have it all, including live music, kids games, a boat parade on Round Lake, a local battle of the bands, a midway, two nights of fireworks, and much more. VENETIANFESTIVAL.COM.

ISLAND, 231.448.2505, BEAVERISLAND.ORG.
HistoryIn the mid-1800s, a renegade Mormon leader and self-anointed prophet named James Strang led 300 devotees to the island, where he ruled over his independent Mormon “kingdom” until his assassination by followers in 1856. Following Strang’s death, Irish immigrants established a new enclave on the island. By the late 1800s, 95 percent of the islanders were Irish, and Gaelic was the common language. (Of the 881 residents in 1880, there were 141 Gallaghers, 123 Boyles, and 90 O’Donnells.) Relics of both the Mormon and Irish communities still survive today: the Mormon colony’s former print shop is now a museum, and the island’s two Irish pubs are the only establishments open year round.
The 32-mile trip by small plane or ferry from the mainland to this, the largest island in Lake Michigan, is just the beginning of the adventure. The rest is in the expansive beaches, forests, two lighthouses, quirky history and great restaurants, bars and shops.
