A Reece Family vacation must do! We love the town, the history and going to one of the many beaches to look for Petoskey Stones.

Petoskey, Michigan, located at the top of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula on Little Traverse Bay is known for its natural beauty, million-dollar sunsets, historic Gaslight Shopping District, and of course, Petoskey Stones. Just a ferry ride away in the warmer months are Harbor Springs and Bay Harbor.

The natural beauty surrounds you with stunning views of Little Traverse Bay from many vantage points. Looking to go outside? Petoskey is home to land for hiking, biking, a day at the beach, water sports, and so much more! The popular, Petoskey State Park is great for a hike, a day at the beach, a stop off of the Little Traverse Wheelway via bike, or going Petoskey Stone hunting.

The Gaslight District in downtown Petoskey is anywhere you see those green light posts. With a variety of shops in this area you can spend the day shopping at places like Grandpa Shorter’s, in operation since 1946, and many more.
