Didn't stay long enough to discover Newberry but we loved Timber Charlies, recommended for supper by front desk staff. It's an exceptionally professionally operated restaurant, from initial welcome and table assignment to service throughout the meal. The place was humming, tables were being over three times in the course of the evening, the staff all worked well together like a well-oiled machine. Food was great, too !

We always enjoy Taquamenon Falls and Oswald's Bear Ranch. Newberry is a good spot that isn't terribly far from Pictured Rocks, various waterfalls, lighthouses, Shipwreck Museum, etc. Downside is that restaurant options are very limited in Newberry and the one sit down restaurant just down the road that offered breakfast, lunch, and dinner was closed on Sundays and Mondays.

When I arrived, I had dinner at Chamberlins Inn which was great! The next day I visited Oswald's Bear Ranch and went to a Lumberjacks Festival to watch a Horse pull! Also, met some folks and enjoyed some social time at a local tavern! I planned to visit Seney Wildlife Refuge but ran out of time!

We were happy to find a port in a rainy evening after a long day starting from Charlevoix. We crossed Mackinac Bridge, visited historical Soo Locks and excellent Shipwreck Museum at Whitefish Point, heading to Mackinac Island the next morning. Newberry didn't have much to see or do as darkness fell with the rain, and the popular restaurant there was unimpressive despite the rustic decor. But, thank God, Newberry is there, just where it ought to be. I'm a country boy, and surely there would have been something for me to see or do had we had the time and weather. That was the only foul conditions of our 8-day travels, and not Newberry's doing.

Only town around if you want to see the falls and go up to the Shipwreck museum. Has decent recent restaurants. Unfortunately there aren't many places to stay in the eastern upper UP if you want to see certain attractions.
