  • Really glad we didn't miss this museum. It looks small from the outside, but is packed with artifacts, a fishing boat, plant of information, and a wonderful video re the Edmund Fitzgerald.

  • Lots of detail and interesting items to learn about the ships and shipwrecks of Lake Michigan. Tons of interesting stories to hear about throughout the building. There's even a full size ship that you can walk through and several videos and interactive pieces. Well worth the stop.
  • Very interesting maritime museum extensive exhibit on Great lake's wrecks, fishing industry, boat motors and pirates.
