Welcome to the Historic Pine Stump Junction
Pine Stump Junction, located in Luce County’s McMillan Township, originated in the 1860s as a remote logging hub where trails converged. It was named after a massive pine stump featuring an iron mailbox used by lumberjacks. Today, it is a popular, year-round destination for snowmobilers and tourists.

Tahquamenon falls state park
Tahquamenon Falls State Park encompasses nearly 50,000 acres and stretches 13-plus miles in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The park is home to multiple campgrounds, overnight lodging facilities, a boat launch, more than 35 miles of trails and multiple overlooks to the Upper and Lower Falls.
The 200-feet-wide Upper Falls is one of the largest waterfalls east of the Mississippi River. The river’s amber color is caused by tannins leached from the cedar, spruce and hemlock trees in the swamps drained by the river, and the extremely soft water churned by the action of the falls causes the river’s trademark large amounts of foam. The Lower Falls can be viewed from the riverbank, all-accessible Ronald A. Olson Island Bridge over the Tahquamenon River or by a rowboat rented from a park concession.
