27672 US-41 , Three Lakes, MI 49861(Baraga County)

The Bear Paw Inn! This family-owned and family-oriented Waterfront Motel is located on The Three Lakes Chain, in south-eastern Baraga County, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The beautiful highly visible property includes an abundant play space, fire pit, and several picnic tables for outdoor relaxing - and the property has 350 feet of waterfront on a canal that connects to three lakes. You can fish from the dock, and launch your fishing boat, kayak or canoe there! In the calm and shallow waters right off the shoreline you practice paddling, and hunt for turtles sunbathing on sunken logs. Swimming is also great here because of the child-friendly depths. If you are adventurous you can take a 16-foot or smaller fishing boat, kayak, or canoe out of the canal into one of the adjoining lakes for bigger water boating and sport fishing. Lake Ruth to the north, covers 192 acres and has a maximum depth of 36 feet. Here you can find Black crappie, Bluegill, Northern pike, Perch, Smallmouth and Rock bass, and Walleyes. Beaufort to the south is the largest lake of the chain. It covers 462 acres and has a maximum depth of 35 feet. This lake also contains Northern pike, Perch, Smallmouth and Rock bass, and Walleyes. Further on to the south is Petticoat Lake. This lake is 73 acres in size and about 25 feet deep. It produces Northern pike, Perch, Pumpkinseed sunfish, Smallmouth bass, and some Walleye. If you want to adventure to other nearby areas that offer outdoor activities, you will want to see Canyon Falls, just a few minutes up the highway. A well-maintained hiking trail there allows exploring by all ages. Lake Michigamme, the largest lake in the area,  covers 4,292 acres and, reaches a depth of over 70 feet, and is about 10 minutes away.
