Get away from the traffic and downstate hassle,
take a trip up I-75, cross the big Mac to Da U.P. and turn right to visit our beautiful waterfront community.
"Quiet", "relaxed", "kinda nice" are some of the recent
descriptions of our town by recent visitors.
Thanks
for looking for DeTour Village and welcome to our website. Our location is
on the eastern end of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, about 1 hour north of the
Mackinac Bridge. We are a small community of friendly people, great local
businesses, a fantastic school system, an
onshore FREIGHTER (the Lewis G. Harriman) extreme cottage home, and the
new 15' high chainsaw carved statue "The Passage Keeper". Come on
U.P. and relax.

Read Official Rules for the 2007 DeTour Freighter Races Check out the 2006 (second annual) DeTour Freighter Race,
photos, read official rules and get details on creating your own entry!!!
We had 9 boat entries this year, and 1000's in attendance.
Thanks to everyone that volunteered and participated in the
2008 DeTour ELF
Winterfest. See the Prize Winner
Results and Photos
DeTour is surrounded on three sides by water, Lake Huron, the St.
Mary's River and DeTour Passage. As you might have guessed our
primary business is tourism in both the summer and winter. Our summer
highlight is the 88 slip DNR Marina with full services, along with three local
boat ramps with ample parking (including a launch ramp on Caribou Lake).
We have miles of beaches, some sandy, where you rarely see another sunbather. There are several waterfront picnic areas and
the "northern-most" Botanical Garden in Michigan all with views of passing
Freighters. In the winter we have over 50 miles of groomed local
snowmobile trails, a large parking/staging area and easy access to
thousands of miles of E.U.P. and Canadian trails, via Drummond Island. So,
checkout our website but
more importantly come on U.P. for a visit, just hang a right 15 miles north of
the Mackinac Bridge, on M-134 and follow the signs to DeTour Village.
 We
are on the M-134
Spur Route to DeTour Village. Be sure to visit us, M-134 has some very
nice nice water views and several public beaches. The
Lake Huron Circle Tour is one of the four designated
Great Lakes Circle Tours.
DeTour is a great stop on the Huron Trail in the Great Waters touring section,
remember DeTour is the spot that "Huron, Michigan and Superior Meet". Click the
link for more tour info.
