The Betsie River flows right into Lake Michigan, which made it perfect for ferrying supplies to where they needed to be. The river also draws tourists from all over because it's a quiet, beautiful place where you'll feel miles away from all your troubles.

Elberta Historic Waterfront Park has ten acres of room to play. There are trails that you and your dog can walk, a playground, and several covered picnic tables. There is plenty to do here that will entertain the whole family, and the best part is that it is all right on the water.

They are very strict about their policies, and if your dog doesn't behave, then you will have to get your meal to-go. Please always keep your dog on a leash while you dine. Pets are not allowed to be left alone in the hotel rooms unless they are kennelled. You'll have to let the staff know you have a pet when you are making reservations because they have a limited number of pet rooms.
