This the season when many visit Harbor Springs. And rightfully so! There is much to do here: concerts on the waterfront, an art fair in the park, sailing, kayaking, beach time, fishing, hiking, biking including the Little Traverse Wheelway, and golfing. This is the place to meet with old friends, and new ones, dine, play, enjoy. Looking for lodging? We have everything from quaint bed and breakfasts to complete resorts. Lodging to fit your wants!
But summer isn’t the only season in Harbor Springs. Fall is the perfect time to view the beautiful fall colors and drive the Tunnel of Trees to Cross Village. The water is still warm for swimming and water activities and the golf courses are glorious in fall color. And with the many events such as Taste of Harbor Springs and locations like the Great Lakes Glass Pumpkin Patch- there is much to do.
Winter is a Currier and Ives image complete with snowmobiling, downhill, and cross country skiing and snowshoeing and more. Events? Absolutely including the February’s Ice Fest.
