Marquette Country has received two major awards during the past few years. One was a designation as a top ten finalist in the All America City competition and the other was being named one of the Most Livable Cities in America! Located in the center of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, which was recently named one of Top Ten Destinations in the world to visit, Top Ten Winter Family Getaways, Top Ten Great Places to Retire for Winter Sports Nuts and Top Ten for outdoorsmen to live, Marquette Country is home to Northern Michigan University and one of two Olympic Training Centers in the United States. Recreation is the name of the game in the county. From hiking, biking, beach 
walking, kayaking, skiing, snowmobiling, ice climbing, snowshoeing, hunting and fishing we have it all “just five minutes away” from any of our major cities.
Fall offers up a fine display of splendor with brilliant color throughout the county. A great way to get in touch with the fall color is by hiking or biking on the many trails throughout the county. If you prefer to drive you can print out your ready-made fall color tour of the county and package up your room directly from our web site.
Marquette offers many events throughout the year from The Blues Fest, Seafood Fest, Superior Bike Fest, Noquemanon Ski Race, Ski Jumping and Suicide Bowl, Ore to Shore Bike Race and the UP200 Sled Dog Race. Check above for our feature event.
