Boyne City/Boyne Falls

Boyne City is nestled along Lake Charlevoix, which has been honored by the readers of USA Today as one of the Best Lakes in America. Just south of Petoskey, Boyne City is a unique city with its downtown offerings, you’re never more than a few minutes from the water and all it offers.

Boyne City is the place where Life Meets Lake®. From a leisurely afternoon on the Boyne River to watching a sailboat catch a summer breeze from Veterans Park, anything having to do with fun on the water is found in and around Boyne City.

Downtown Boyne City is where to go for great dining, a craft cocktail from Muskrat Distilling, and a stroll. The list of choices is long, the quality excellent and the opportunities to enjoy yourself are immense.

Boyne City is also home to wonderful street music in the summer months during an event called Stroll the Streets – every Friday. Recognized by the state as Michigan’s “Premier Main Street”, Boyne City has a focus on keeping history alive, hosting outstanding events, and having so much to offer. In 2020, Boyne City was recognized as one of three winners of the Great American Main Street Award (GAMSA) which recognizes communities for their excellence in comprehensive preservation-based commercial district revitalization [more here].
