DISCOVER ST. IGNACE

Little Bear East Arena and Community Center is the place for events in St. Ignace all year long.

Long before St. Ignace was settled by Europeans, Native Americans inhabited this land. Today, St. Ignace still enjoys a rich Native American history and culture. The first people in the area were the Anishinaabe. They fished for whitefish and sturgeon and planted crops.

Spend an afternoon sunning, swimming, and hiking the winding trails along miles of beautiful sandy beach on the north shore of Lake Michigan.

With over two dozen prime birding locations, the North Huron Birding Trail covers 150 miles on the north side of Lake Huron along Michigan’s Scenic Byway, M-134.

Our location allows for fishing of both Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, and don’t miss out on the inland lakes and rivers as they offer great fishing as well.

Welcome to St. Ignace, your Gateway to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and Mackinac Island. Get ready to enjoy a relaxing vacation filled with exciting events, gorgeous sunsets, and unparalleled views of two of the Great Lakes.
