Drummond Island offers visitors outdoor adventures mixed with the slower pace of island life for the perfect getaway. CNN says:

Floating in the northwest corner of Lake Huron near Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Drummond is the nation’s second-largest lake island. Almost entirely wooded, the island flaunts miles of remote, undeveloped lakeshore and dozens of small glacial lakes. In addition to copious hiking paths, Drummond is renowned among off-roaders for its dedicated 4x4 and all-terrain vehicle trails.

Take in the scenic views of Fossil Ledge on Drummond Island, relax on pristine beaches, or enjoy other outdoor adventures, including biking, paddling, fishing, paintball, and The Rock at Drummond Island golf course.
