 Country Living website features
Boyne City in list of "Best Small Mountain Towns" for winter activitiesBoyne City is featured in the Country Living magazine website along with high-profile winter towns including Jackson Hole, Park City, Bozeman, Steamboat Springs and Lake Placid. The story says readers can "Treat cabin fever by booking a winter break in these high-altitude towns where snow is considered a good thing."
Here is the profile of Boyne City and Boyne Falls:
"Can you even discuss winter weekends without mentioning mittens? Boyne Falls is at the top of the Michigan Mitten and offers some of the most reliable snow in the Midwest. The two skiable mountains catch all the winter weather coming off Lake Superior and Lake Michigan, refreshing the powder on the slopes and terrain parks. If there's too much weather, you can slip away to the indoor water park or head into Boyne City, a historic downtown district that welcomes visitors year-round. You'll find plenty of candy shops, restaurants, breweries, boutiques and bookstores along Water Street and Lake Street to distract you. Read the full story." See the story online.

Boyne's first permanent residents arrived 160 years ago
 |
| |
John and Harriet Miller
|
Former Boyne City history teacher Bob Morgridge sent us this story and photo:
It was late in the day on November 14,1856, when this man, his wife, and a friend beached their sailboat on the shores of Boyne. After walking up the hill they found a dilapidated shelter - their dream cabin - that they immediately claimed as their home. And thus began a residency that marks the beginning of the history of Boyne. These hardy pioneers, John and Harriet Miller, were Boyne City's first permanent residents. This coming Monday, November 14, marks the 160th anniversary of their arrival in Boyne. If you wish to read more about why they came to Boyne please consult "Settlers to Sidewalks: A History of Boyne City," which can be purchased at the Chamber office for $18.
