Scenic overlook looking north towards Glen Haven. If you enlarge, you can see a farm in the valley, known as the D.H. Day farm, the man man that developed Glen Haven. |
The way the farm looked back in the day. |
The farm close up; the national parks dept is doing a fantastic job on the renovations. |
The Sleeping Bear Inn that D. H. Day built; Lake Michigan sits directly to the right. |
The General Store. Notice the Red Crown gas pump. It was a Standard Oil product. |
What it looked like back in the days. |
Another pic of the inn. |
D. H. Day built a cannery here. |
The beachfront. |
The old docks that were used for shipping...can you believe the colors in this water! |
Some of the restored boats. |
Back before rubber tires were invented and used as protection for boats bumping the docks, people had to weave bumpers out of rope. |
