Yes, the cottage is north of Manistee. I know the garage needs a bike in it. There isn't even have a boat in it. Sacrilege.Yeah the slow ferry, the SS Badger goes across to Manitowac, Wisconsin. I live closer to the Express Ferry in Muskegon. It goes to Milwaukee twice a day in about 2.5 hours. There is also (another) Bear Lake in North Muskegon. Your Bear Lake Cabin must be near Manistee. The riding here is incredible for about 5 months of the year. Every vacation cottage should have a motorcycle !!
