Check out the Chippewa Resort or Paint River Landing. Otherwise, Iron River is next town to the west and has an Americinn and Lakeshore Motel on Ice Lake. The Chippewa Resort and Paint River Landing both have small cottages and a restaurant/bar on site.
In terms of where to ride, go any direction where find snow. Normally north will get you into the lake effect belt, but who knows this year.

The Chippewa was closed the last 2 years. Don't know about this year.

We have about 4-5" on the ground. I doubt I trails are even open locally as we were looking at the grass on Monday

I have about 3" on the ground in Spread Eagle, just to the west of Iron Mountain. I don't think the trails are even open. I have a message out to a friend of mine who grooms the Iron Mountain trails and if he says anything different than what I'm telling you now I will post his comments.
Thanks,
I hope a couple weeks changes things. We will wait it out. Even if we get 3 days of riding the area, its worth it to us.

I don't think anything has really changed much since you started asking. As you know...no major snow. In fact we got a couple of inches then the same afternoon it started to rain and we pretty much lost the snow we got in the morning. I'm heading up to the area Thursday, but it looks like I will have to trailer somewhere that's getting Lake effect snow. I haven't had to trailer for 3 years. Been able to ride right out of my garage which is nice.
