Best Day Trip in the Upper Peninsula
Tahquamenon Falls State Park spans approximately 50,000 acres and features the stunning Tahquamenon River and its breathtaking waterfalls. The Upper Falls, one of the largest waterfalls east of the Mississippi, draws most of the attention.
From Reed’s on the River, a visit to Tahquamenon Falls makes for an exciting and memorable day trip. Here are a few tips to help you make the most of your journey.

Must Do
Tahquamenon Falls State Park has both an upper falls and lower falls. The two locations are about 4 miles apart and have two separate entrances.
The upper falls has the famous large fall that you see the most pictures of. There is also a restaurant / brewery located at the upper falls.
The lower falls is a combination of falls that end up in a small lake that you can rent boats and row around.
Both locations have gift shops.
