Upper Michigan Village Home with Panoramic Lake Superior View! This 3 bedroom 1.5 bath property is located in the Village of Baraga in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. This village is located on L'Anse Bay, the lower part of Keweenaw Bay on Lake Superior! In the seventeenth century French missionaries, voyageurs and traders followed the south shore of Lake Superior and were the first to explore the area. Father Frederick Baraga established a Roman Catholic Mission in the area in 1843. Both the Village and the County took Father Baraga's name. Incorporated in 1891, this Village has been part of the lumbering, fishing, mining and agriculture industries that attracted immigrants to the area. Rich in history, in recent years, the economy of the area has shifted towards manufacturing and tourism, and outdoor recreation of all kinds. There are over 150 miles of groomed snowmobile trails in the County, as well as a cross-country ski trail. Summer and Fall provides hiking to Mount Arvon (Michigan's highest point), the Sturgeon River Gorge, Silver or Little Mountain, or to several nearby waterfalls. Many people also enjoy exploring the many nearby historic sites. A Marina for access to 31,000 square mile Lake Superior is just a couple blocks away!
