A winter day, from the first ski out to the sauna.

Ski or snowshoe from the lodge on its trails, drive a short way to groomed ones, then come home to a sauna. It is a quiet kind of winter, for families and friends who like their snow with plenty of warmth.

From the door, then a short drive.

The Iron Ore Heritage Trail and the North Country Trail cross the lodge’s land, and the Iron Ore trail is open to skis, so you can ski out from the door. Snowshoes need nothing but snow. For groomed trails, the Noquemanon Trail Network looks after 2 close by.

  1. Morning

    Coffee, then skis or snowshoes out from the lodge, onto the trails on the land.

  2. Midday

    The NTN South Trails are 15 to 18 minutes away and Forestville 25 to 32. Both are groomed by the Noquemanon Trail Network, whose Noquemanon Ski Marathon runs each January.

  3. Afternoon

    Downhill is at Marquette Mountain, 14 to 17 minutes away.

  4. Evening

    Back at the lodge, the sauna. Then the great room, and supper in a kitchen set up for 10.

The lodge has its own sauna, indoors, so there is no walk through the snow in a towel.

Riding as a group: snowmobiling The lake in winter

What else winter brings.

A frozen waterfall, a sled dog race through town and, on the coldest mornings, sea smoke on the lake.

  • The UP200

    The UP200 sled dog race runs through downtown Marquette, February 11 to 15, 2027.

  • Sea smoke

    When very cold air crosses the open lake, steam rises off the water, most often in December and January and on the coldest mornings.
