The Promised Land's Places to See and Do
Food scene
This is, hands down, the best breakfast place in northern Michigan. It's a three minute drive from the Promised Land. Usually, there is a line. It's worth the wait. If you like French toast, make sure to get it with their homemade cinnamon swirl bread!

Short's is famous throughout Michigan. If you are a craft beer person, I'm sure you've heard of the Huma Lupa Licious! Bellaire is a small town with a ton of charm. Check out the brewery, grab a bit to eat (we suggest The Something sandwich) and then explore the small town. If you like the Freedom Hill coffee that we offer, you can pick up a bag at the Bee Well Mead and Cider. The coffee is roasted locally. While you are at Bee Well, be sure to try some mead. You won't be disappointed!

If you have never been to Boyne City, it is a must see! It has small town charm surrounded by beauty. For food recommendations, we LOVE Stigg's. This is a brewery that has an extensive beer menu with the majority of their beers made in house. We recommend the hamburger with the Fuggle fries. After eating at Stiggs, check out Provisions down the street and then go get your ice cream fix at Alpine Chocolate Haus!

River Trips
Want to take a trip down the Jordan River? Head to Jordan Valley Outfitters. You can take either a three hour or two hour trip down the river. if you are a family of first timers, you might consider a raft. This is the first protected river in Michigan and is also the third fastest. We recommend you have some experience before you tackle this bad boy! One perk of going is you get to see The Promised Land from the river as you pass by!
