What is more Americana than the 4th of July? Experiencing it in northern Michigan with fireworks, beach days, local parades, and relaxing at the resort in between all the fun.

The Highlands is the perfect home base for Petoskey and Harbor Springs festivities, close to Lake Michigan, and offers golfing and biking when you want on-resort activities.
