Description:

fifelakeFife Lake, known by some as 49633, is a wonderful Michigan lake with a city named after it. Or maybe I have that backwards. Fife Lake is located on the county lines of Grand Traverse and Kalkaska counties. Fife Lake has 615 plus acres of surface waters with pocket depths of up to 55 feet.

On the north side of the lake, on the east side of the town, is a public access with hard surface parking for ten cars, a hard surface boat launch and vault style restrooms. Adjacent to the site is a small, but nice, local park with a beach for swimming. More parking may be found across the street.

The town of Fife Lake has a main street with several Northern Michigan business. Founded in 1872, the town features a general store, several restaurants and a seasonal dairy bar. Of added interest is the restored school house and the historical museum.

For a sandwich or a meal you may consider the Fife Lake Inn, or visit the Chamber of Commerce for other suggestions.

As with everything regarding Michigan’s lakes and rivers and Michigan’s North, there is so much to see and do.

This morning, we had a heavy downpour of rain, so I made David and the five children hotcakes with maple syrup. It was a runaway hit. Our family is too large for this small, especially when the weather outside is rain and dreary.

But overall we are doing well and adjusting.

Love the gang
