In 1898, Ernest Hemingway’s parents fell in love with Northern Michigan. They built a summer cottage on Walloon Lake, and called it Windemere. Ernest Hemingway would visit Northern Michigan every summer from his birth year, 1899, until he was married at Horton Bay in 1921. Hemingway went on to write a series of short stories based in Northern Michigan, featuring a character named Nick Adams. His first novel, “The Torrents of Spring,” was set in Petoskey. This tour features locations associated with Ernest Hemingway and with those Michigan stories.
