Not only do they have a great selection of items but their prices are incredibly reasonable! Being one of the few places near Wilderness State Park, they could choose to take advantage of that - their prices indicate anything but that. Whether you're looking for ice, food, beer, camping gear or ice cream - they have it all! 10 out of 10 recommend.

Plus some camping gear and a surprising array of bike accessories and supplies. My only quibble was the the grocery line was a little too basic...couldn't find cold cereal aside from some small bags of highly sweetened kids' stuff. But other things we needed we found, including a baja hoodie for my wife at a great price. One of their pizzas is on the menu for our next trip up this way.

They have 4 diffetent non dairy milk options which is amazing. Many flavors you can add to the beverage. I was eyeing some of the vegan bowls they have on the menu but we didn't order anything as we were not hungry. They also have a very nice looking smoothie bowls. Staff was very nice, welcoming and friendly. I'll be back to try some of the vegan items they offer.

We ordered smoothie bowls because we thought it would be interesting to try. I got the Reese's latte bowl and my husband got the pb &j bowl. We each tasted both and ended up trading bowls. It felt like we were eating ice cream for a meal. It was surprisingly delicious and very filling. I assumed I would be hungry quickly but it held me all afternoon. It was a fun meal. I'm not generally adventurous I'm trying new things but I'm glad I did this time. They also sell bikes and camping equipment. They are a coffee shop and a bar too. Very fun, eclectic place.

We rented bikes for the first time up north, and this place was so wonderful. We called and the…read morewoman on the phone was incredibly nice and told us "not to worry because they had enough bikes to help our whole family, no matter what sizes we needed." Awesome! We came on over and they let us try electric bikes for the first time. They patiently taught us how to use them and let us ride around the parking lot to decide if we wanted those or regular bikes. We decided to try the e-bikes and away we went! They were super helpful, telling us the best paths to take and providing us with a map. Jeff, one of the employees, especially went above and beyond. We rented the bikes for 24 hours and therefore tried to load them in our car, but when we realized that there wasn't enough room, he took the bike rack off of his OWN car and attached it to ours. How sweet is that?! He brought out tools to do it quickly and then wished us a wonderful time. We would've guessed he was the owner by how above and beyond he went but nope -- just a man who is rocking his job. Thank you for a fun time! PS: The inside of this store is great too and has tons of great outdoors clothing and gear. Look around!

My wife and I rented a couple of e-bikes for the day. We rode out to Harbor Springs. On the way…read moreback, I lost control of my bike and ended up on the ground. There was no apparent reason why that happened. I'm a seasoned bike rider with a great safety record. My fall scared the heck out of my wife. Fortunately, I didn't hit my head, but I guess I should have had knee and elbow pads (I have road rash on my forearm and especially on my knee). When I got the bike up, the handlebars were parallel to the frame. That's when I discovered that the handlebars were loose. I was able to straighten them with light pressure. I tested my wife's handlebars and they were tight. Since we didn't really have any options, we carefully rode back to the bike shop (my knee covered in blood the entire way). When we arrived at the rental place, I was surprised at the seeming lack of concern by the staff person. I told him what happened and showed him my injuries. He tested the handlebars and acted like they were barely loose. It was as if he wanted to play down the looseness, and may have gone into CYA mode. He tightened the handlebars and sent us on our way for the rest of our day. It troubled my wife and me how he reacted. We rented bikes that should have been in top safety condition. I don't know if the bike had been recently worked on, but my opinion is the loose handlebar probably played a role in my spill. There was nothing else that that would have likely caused it. The rental place should have had more concern about how one of their bikes went out without being in the safest condition possible. I may have signed a waiver regarding injuries, but there was an implied understanding that I was renting a bike that was functionally safe. Aside from a scuff or two, the bike was undamaged. Wish I could say the same for me.
