Bortells Fish Market

This is one of the best kept secrets around. This place has been in business for 100 years and has stayed in the same family. It's to-go only. The Norwegian smoked salmon is the best we have ever had. They have smoked whitefish and sturgeon and several other varieties of smoked fish as well. When we visit we usually share the smelt dinner. You can eat outside on their picnic tables or you can drive south to the second driveway that takes you to a small township park where there are tables on a grassy knoll overlooking Lake Michigan. After lunch go down to the beach and walk north or south and collect stones and rocks until your heart is content.
