Whether you’re eating or lounging, you’ll definitely want to spend a lot of time out here: the view is incredible! You’re looking across the North Channel that separates Madeline Island from Basswood Island to the north: watch the sailboats come and go from the marina, watch the ferry on its way to Madeline and back, or just watch the waves.
