After making the climb onto the top deck, you may notice a worn path over the fence on the north side. If you are feeling adventurous, hop the fence and follow the short path through the trees. Be careful where you step – it follows the cliff! There are good trees to step up a hammock. Experience Inspiration Point like a real local with this “secret” path.

Within Peterson Park, you will find plenty of parking along with picnic tables, grills, and restroom facilities. Walk down the stairs to the shore, and you’ll find that the shore is covered with rocks of all shapes and sizes…a rock hunter’s dream!
Since this beach is well off the normal tourism routes, Peterson Park is more of a local’s gem. If you enjoy a rocky beach, this park is well worth the detour and not too far from scenic M-22.
At the very tip of scenic route M-22, Northport, in Leelanau County, is known for its fine marina, beautiful parks, and scenic beaches.
Located along the Lake Michigan, Leland is the site of an area nicknamed “Fishtown” for its charming historical preservation.
Take one of the most scenic drives in the nation as you travel across M-22 in West Michigan. A long winding road of adventure awaits!
Suttons Bay, in Leelanau County, is midway up the eastern shore of the Leelanau Peninsula and is a very popular destination.
Festivals and events celebrating many aspects of life are scheduled throughout the year in the Leelanau County area.
Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes has miles of sand trails and hills, where hikers are rewarded at the end with spectacular views of Lake Michigan.
