For more than 30 years, The Dells has been one of Northern Michigan’s favorite courses to play.
This classic Jerry Matthew’s design surrounds the golfer with natural beauty and spectacular views. The front nine features a beautiful parkland setting with acres of mowed grass, which allows a smooth transition into the woods and creeks of the back nine. Host of Michigan’s amateur championship for several years, The Dells is truly a fair and fun test of golf.
It’s a wonderful golf course. It’s always been one of my favorites and it always will be.
– Jerry Matthews, designer of Antrim Dells
The course is truly a hidden gem. I have been playing the course for about 20 years. I’ve played many of the area’s top courses and put Antrim at the top of my list for course to play in Michigan. The staff is courteous and respectful. If you haven’t played Antrim, you haven’t played Michigan golf. It’s all there in one great golf course.
– Tim L., Kalamazoo, MI
This is a great course to play. Generally not busy because of the location. The course offers an interesting layout. The first 9 holes allow the golfer to swing more freely without worrying about accuracy, while the back nine has a lot tighter fairways and a lot of hazards to deal with. It’s a great mixture for the golfer.
-Jason, Santa Barbara, CA

Emma & Daniel: Part One
It was a chilly, but cozy, fall weekend on Walloon Lake. The wind pulling leaves from the trees. The sun sneaking through to grace us with a whisper of her presence throughout the day.
This wedding was especially meaningful for me, as Emma is dear to my heart—one of LSE’s first lead event coordinators. Emma started with Luna Soiree Events in 2014, and 10 years later, I got to send her down the aisle.
She and Daniel started dating in her last year with LSE, and I had a feeling he was going to stick. They are absolutely perfect for eachother, always sneaking smiles, laughing and staying active together. I love planning with couples who truly want to plan their wedding weekend celebration together!
One last add to Part One. I must commend hotelwalloon for the absolutely spectacular guest service and accommodations. What an absolute treat it was to spend the weekend here, producing this incredible celebration with them.
Not pictured: the fireside lounge— a favorite and welcome retreat. Stay tuned for Part Two!

It’s time to take your Harbor Springs Fall Color Tour. The colors should be close to peak this weekend, especially away from water. We should have another week to 10 days – and maybe more – of fall color. Here are some photos from Monday.
Fall Color Tour – Harbor Springs – October 12, 2015 Photo Gallery (Click on photos for captions & slideshow view)
Some early color this weekend at Boyne Mountain Resort near Petoskey… Chairlift rides and other fall activities to enjoy the early color… Looks like peak next weekend…
Harbor Springs – October 12, 2015
Nice early fall color in Harbor Spring… Should be good fall color all week long as peak fall color season arrives.
October – 2014
Boyne Mountain – October 30, 2014
Testing 1, 2, 3, 4….test, test. Are these things on?! Looking good…now we are just waiting for Mother Nature’s cue. #GunTest2014
Emmet County, Michigan – October 7, 2014
Sometimes those dark fall skies create the perfect backdrop for eye-catching fall color, like in this Emmet County farmland scene from Resort Township!

Continuing along on my week of posting some of the most dramatic golfscapes I’ve played and photographed over the past couple years we come to the beautiful Links/Quarry Course at Bay Harbor Golf Club in Petoskey, Michigan.
The flagship of the boyne.golf Northern Michigan empire, Links/Quarry grabs you immediately at the clubhouse, then bombards your visual senses throughout the front 9 with 5 holes played alongside the cliffs above Little Traverse Bay.
The Quarry 9 then meanders out into a quarry that features stark changes in elevation, beautiful water hazards and a lot of really creative Arthur Hills design before finishing with two more jaw-dropping holes along the lake, including the fabulous par 3 17th and tumultuous downhill par 4 18th.
What a setting. What a clubhouse. What a departure from the norm of everything I’d ever seen of Arthur Hills’ golf course architecture. We were all blown away by the Bay Harbor golf experience (and Petoskey is a really cool summer beach town, too!), and it got me to thinking:
HOW IS THIS COURSE NOT RANKED HIGHER ON NATIONAL TOP 100 PUBLIC LISTS?...

When the rain stops and the clouds break…making way for the sun to cast its light on this mystical early fall scene along M-31’s northernmost stretch of shoreline…while a rainbow spans beautifully across the sky and as if that couldn’t already be perfect enough, a sailboat cruises into the scene! Here is another random (from the backlogs a plenty!😉), a magical early October 2022 scene! As with so many others….this image got buried and never shared because I forgot I even had it amidst my 1,000 of backlogs (😂), so here ya go and I hope you all enjoy this stunning Petoskey area scene as much as I enjoyed capturing it! 💙🌈⛵️#puremichigan #sailboats #rainbow #m31 #petoskey #mynorth #fall #water #michiganders #northernmichigan #petoskeyareavisitorbureau #earth_shotz #dofaddicts #nautical #nauticalart...
For all the Michigan kids who love to play in the waves, collect fireflies, and are natural adventurers. 🌲❤️ We’re excited to add this new original design by us to our Michigan sign line up. It will first be available at thefoundcottagemercantile next week as a sign, shirt, sweatshirt! 🙌🏻...

Moments from our annual Harbor Springs trip 2025. ...
Moments from our annual Harbor Springs trip 2025. I’ve been coming up to the same place with my family my entire life for one week every summer. Every year, I always discover new parts to love about it. The way the water shapes the sand or seeing new colors in the sunset - there’s nothing quite like it. There’s a million things I could write about how much this place means to me but these photos are an extension of those feelings....
This table with rocks was made by klmkepoxycreations using the CHILL ICE 2. Doesn’t get any clearer than this!
・・・
Still have this amazing willow/petoskey coffee table for sale.🤩 It measures 24" x 48" and is approx 19" tall. Would be a great addition to any home and with neutral tones would compliment all color themes in a room. Can be shipped anywhere in Cont. US....DM me for more information or to schedule a visit to see it in person! 🚗🚙🚚

Northern Michigan has its own version of quiet luxury — the towns where wealthy buyers escape for long weekends, holiday breaks, and year-round lakefront living. These are the places that define high-end Up North real estate… even in the winter.

Love these beauties sent by Cass cass616 ! They made it all the way from the shore of Lake Michigan to the shore of Monterey Bay! Thank you so much for parting with them, Cass! I’m thrilled to have them in my collection!!! #petoskeystone #charlevoix #petoskey #greatlakeslove...
It’s no secret that we’re road tripping right now. We are staying in Petoskey, Michigan for the next 2 nights. While looking for coffee this morning in the clubhouse, I found a “take a book, leave a book” shelf! Unfortunately every book I have with me is one I haven’t read so I can’t participate...unless I manage to get a book read in the next 48 hours!
.
See any good ones here I should work extra hard to swap for?

Summer solstice has come and gone. Bucket lists are in full swing and weekends that have been a year in the making with friends and family are well underway. Just remember, don’t forget to pause, soak it all in and intentionally spend some time in a no wake zone.
Our midwestern habits tend to squeeze so much into these warmer months that summer can feel like it’s slipping away just as it begins but look how beautiful it is when you seek slow moments. Some of our favorite NoMi activities to ground ourselves in the season are watching boats come in, walking the shore for stones, lunch in Penn Park, browsing mcleanandeakin for summer reads (PS Where The Crawdads Sing!?!-still getting chills from the ending), sitting in the Rose Garden staffordshospitality watching the kids play on a Sunday evening after the town settles from the weekend. We’d love to hear how you slow summer?#seekingslow #whatmattersmost #summer19...
Soft light makes for a calm and relaxing evening at the Charlevoix South Pier Light Station.

The theme of our trip to Michigan this week is “odd lodging” or L’odd’ging, if you will. 🏡 The coastal city of Charlevoix is home to several historic mushroom style houses both big and small. We spent the evening in an original mushroom house that has been renovated and reimagined - complete with several cozy fireplaces and enough beds to sleep up to 14 people. 💙The hobbit-style home was designed by famous architect Earl Young in 1918 and boasts a thatch roof that was made in Europe before it was sent straight to the US to be installed here. 🌿 It might not have been Middle Earth but it sure felt like the closest we could get to it in real life!

🌿 More from the camera roll: I spotted this gorgeous entrance from a distance, through an alleyway in downtown Charlevoix, Michigan. The flower boxes are on point, too. 🌿 #bloomfloraldesign...
Hi hello, it’s Steph! Figured I haven’t shown my face around here in a minute so I wanted to welcome our new followers💛 Glad you’re here!
A ~little bit about me~ would probably consist of my love for quality time with people, a good bottle of red, yoga, traveling, & of course, chick fil a. I have spent so much time outside hiking/running/exploring during quarantine & have loved every second. Being active & prioritizing these things helps to keep me creative & feeling good, which is so so important! Photography is a very significant part of my life, not only because it’s my job but also because it’s an outlet in which I can communicate and share my perspective of the world with others. I absolutely love being a wedding photographer because I get to bring your vision to reality & build relationships with people during one of the best seasons of their life. So, with that being said, don’t be shy! I’d love to meet you & talk all things wedding if you’re recently engaged and new to all of this.
2020 has been nothing short of an adventure & sometimes adventures don’t always go our way - but that doesn’t mean they aren’t still exciting! Glass half full, right? Our team is here to cheer you on, walk alongside you through the planning process & do our best to accommodate you where we can. I love our couples so much & I can’t wait to meet some of you soon!!

I ❤️ fall drives! I was crawling along the lakeshore drive at Fisherman’s Island, and came to a hard stop when I noticed the leaves occasionally lining up into this red-edged heart. Sometimes a perfect situation presents itself if you happen to have an eye out for it!...
Happy holidays, folks! Where are you all celebrating at in Michigan? photo credit: lindzjoy1188 #charlevoixmichigan#lighthouse#greatlakes#michigan#puremichigan#northernmichigan#ice#winter...
