GRANOT LOMA
The Granot
Loma is a fifty-room log lodge near Marquette, Michigan, with 5,000 acres of
woodland, his-an d-hers
wine cellars, a nine-car garage and a "gentleman’s farm and barns".
Located on a point, Lake Superior buffeted this lodge on three sides for
sixty years. It was handcrafted in wood logs and stone.
This historic lodge even features its own
boathouse
Listed on the registry for National
Historic Places, Granot Loma is reminiscent of the “great camps” that were
built during the dawn of the 20th century out East in the Adirondack
Mountains. Like the Rockefellers and Vander bilt's,
the Kaufman's sought natural surroundings as respite from their otherwise
chaotic lives in the cities. The “camps” they had built in the quiet woods
offered relaxation as well as rejuvenation and inspiration.

The size of this lodge cannot be appreciated untill seen in person the only
way to see the lodge is by water, the private road from the highway is
gated. This adventure takes apporx 30mins on our formula and about
45min on our carver yacht.
Please note that all trips are weather pending! The decision to cancel
trips will be at the discretion of the Captain. If a trip is cancelled due
to weather, you will have the option to reschedule or receive a
refund.
