Sightseeing
This is an historic gem just 1 mile south of Copper Harbor on US 41. Built by the CCC during the Depression, generations of Copper Country folk have fond memories of spending time at KML over the years. The new owners have made some changes, including (in 2022 summer) no daily dining offerings. Check their website for details. The iconic 9-hole golf course is gorgeous. Worth a drive to see the historic main building and golf course.

The drive up to the top of Mt. Brockway off of M-26 is lovely, and the view from the top is unparalleled. On clear days you can see Isle Royale National Park to the north, and Lake Superior vistas for miles and miles. The verdant forests on the south side, with migrating raptors soaring past, are just as spectacular. Sunsets viewed from the top are a special treat. Note: the road has some rough spots - take it easy!
