Northern Michigan Lodging
Horton Creek Inn - Horton Bay
The address may be in Charlevoix but, your stay at the Horton Creek Inn B&B will be more like a journey back into Michigan's historic past. Hidden away in the middle of 60 acres of pines and hardwoods, it is easy to imagine that this Cedar Log home is as far from a town as you can get. You can stroll through the gardens and forest, visit the butterfly house or relax in the whirlpool. When you are ready to go inside you will find every amenity and modern convenience.

1916 Ernest Hemingway briefly visited several small northern
Michigan towns, including Kalkaska. It is apparent by looking at
excerpts from the journal that Hemingway kept of the trip (written
in a ruled pocket ledger courtesy of the Old Hartford Fire Insurance
Company) that the excursion made an impression on him and helped him
produce two of his finest Michigan stories: "The Light of the World"
and "The Battler."
