Where Michigan was Born

Sault Ste. Marie is a place where you can drink in the atmosphere, look up at the stars, and walk in the footsteps of those who came before you. It is a diverse waterfront community with a wealth of things to see and do, including year-round recreational activities, historical sites, the world-famous Soo Locks, Tahquamenon Falls, spectacular lighthouses, and pristine natural environments.

As a cultural affairs expert and a member of the Sault Tribe of Chippewa Indians, Cecil Pavlat knows a thing or two about this special place. He says, “It is the center of the Great Lakes, and it always has been.”

Whether you’re looking for a relaxing getaway or an adventure-filled vacation, Sault Ste. Marie has something for everyone. So come and experience the beauty and history of this amazing place!
