We always enjoy doing something a little different; a
little known scenic back road way in to Algonac.
And of course once we cross over the ferry we like to
also get to the cottage via the indirect but also very
scenic back way.
Once on the Island follow M-154 East
(left turn off the ferry) stay on the main grade,
the road makes a few turns. You will look for the
address 4458 M-154 (Green Drive). There is a sign
in front saying Couture - Bonsetto
Some of you may want to proceed to Al's
directly, we should be arriving on the Island
12-12:30.PM
ADDITIONAL NOTES
Harsens Island Ferry is off M-29, two miles S.
of Algonac around the bend to the left, plainly marked by a
Road sign and at the Stoplight. $7.00 round trip.
To the Picnic On Harsens follow M-154, the main
grade to the House. The House is 13 doors south of St. Marks
Catholic church( small white church).
On Harsens the roads pretty much follow the
perimeter of the island.
CB radios are would be handy, if you have one
bring it.
