The smashburgers were perfectly executed--juicy, flavorful, and layered with the kind of detail you can taste in every bite. The chicken wings had that ideal balance of crisp and tenderness, and the potato salad? Comforting, creamy, and done right. But the real standout for me was the cannoli pizza--creative, indulgent, and completely unforgettable. Beyond the food, what truly sets Pond Hill Farm apart is the experience. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and effortlessly charming--exactly what you want for a night out in Northern Michigan. As a fellow local business, I also deeply appreciate how supportive they are of the community. It means something--and it shows in everything they do. If you haven't been, go. And if you have, you already know.

Cold beer and traditional smoked meats (by way of sausages of various types) await you. High heels or tennis shoes, just be sure to bring your polka-purposes self to one of the best local festivals in northwestern lower Michigan. Held each year during the Fourth of July, the Village of Cedar offers the best chance to twist, turn and twirl to the catchy tunes of ole' Eastern Europe. Percussion, cymbals and the ubiquitous accordion set your feet a tappin' and bring on a thirst and desire to dance that only the Cedar Polka Fest can cure.

Every summer, I look forward to the Traverse City Film Festival (often referred to fondly as TCFF…read morein my family). Without a doubt, this is one of the most amazing events of the year in an already beautiful city. Even though Michael Moore is one of the founders, this film festival has proven to be incredibly diverse in its selection. The movies range from comedy to drama, action to horror. There are documentaries that will open your eyes to a whole new walk of life, there are moves that make you think about where your life is going. Some movies will make you laugh one minute, and have you in tears the next. Some might think, so why TCFF over Cannes or Sundance? Traverse City is just a normal town, with normal people. You don't need to be a celebrity to get tickets, or even to see other celebrities. There are events all over town, including places for children to go while the adults attend movies. There are panels, consisting of some of the directors, producers and actors in the movies, helping answer some pressing questions. The first year of the film festival, there was a fear that it would have the theme of "Bowling for Columbine" or "Farenheit 911", but I have gone for 5 years and never seen a political film (by choice). Between the FREE movies at the Open Space (including the Dark Knight and Mrs. Doubtfire), and the vast array of movies, this festival is definitely a family fun vacation and an educational experience! Five stars isn't enough!

We decided that we would go considering we got the same recommendation from multiple people. In the winter it looks closed until you get up to the building, but it was definitely open. As you walk up you observe all their outdoor domes, and a lit fire for anyone who wants to enjoy the snow, or may have pets. It was beautiful. As you enter you walk into this huge open space with a massive fire place and high tables. In the middle is a bar where you can just walk up and order. We got lucky and attended the afternoon they had live music. The live music really made the whole experience amazing. I enjoyed all the wine. I wound up trying half of the menu because each one was delicious. Overall, this place was an absolute treasure. Beautiful exterior, beautiful interior, superb service, and live music. Highly recommend following them on social media so that you can attend when there is music. Really makes the experience that much better. Also, the owner has the most adorable dogs. They are so beautiful, and well behaved. If you're lucky they will come say hello.
