The
Country Village Resort is located at the heart of Marquette
County's excellent trail system. There is very heavy "lake
effect" snow here. Many from this area take the 16 mile trek
west from Ishpeming to Clowry. From here they connect with
the Burma Trail (Trail 5) and continue their long journey
north to historic Big Bay near the Huron Mountains.
