We have good old fashion parades, bands, picnics and of course fireworks. A week of activity that will keep you coming back. Take in the crisp, clean air of a fall day as Main street is filled with vendor booths and contests like best carved pumpkin, seed spitting. The hub of activity is the Western U.P. located at the junctions of US 2, M28 and Cty Rd 519 on the south shore of beautiful Sunday Lake. Winter turns us into Big Snow Country - 'Ski the Best' at Indianhead Mountain Resort, only 1 mile from downtown.
Nordic skiing abounds with trails for all levels.
Wakefield is located on the main snowmobile trails and offers gas, food and lodging. Many other winter activities are available closeby. Highlights of Lake Gogebic's fishing include Walleye, Jumbo Perch, Northern Pike, Small Mouth Bass and Whitefish. Based in a recent Michigan Department of Natural Resources records.
