The Cheboygan Area Visitors Bureau is made up of the following lodging properties in our assessment district: The Best Western River Terrace, The Fleetwood Inn and Suites, The Birch Haus Motel, The Continental Inn, Johnson's Motel, LeDuc's Creekside Motel, The Monarch, The North Country Inn and The Pine River Motel. Each month the owners of these nine properties meet as a Board of Directors and make decisions on how to best spend the marketing dollars that have been collected .
For administrative support, and Executive Director services, the Cheboygan Area Visitors Bureau contracts with the Cheboygan Area Chamber of Commerce to have the Chamber Executive Director also serve as the Executive Director of the Visitors Bureau. The maintenance of that seamless working relationship between the two organizations is key to the success that we as a community have been able to enjoy in area marketing support. The Visitors Bureau’s marketing efforts bring people into the community and the Chamber of Commerce helps them have a quality experience, while they are here, though the many products and services available from Chamber Members. A perfect “1-2 punch”!
The current Chamber Board of Directors and the current Visitors Bureau Board of Directors, both strongly understand that by working together in a close partnership, we can accomplish so much more for the marketing and outreach of the Cheboygan Area than if either organization were to ever try to do it alone. Now, that’s Cheboygan!

Guided Bicycle Trail Ride
Ride the North Central State Trail to the Barbara
Hoffius Preserve and Back
Hoffius Preserve Bicycle Ride Tour
By Cheboygan Trails Council
Beginning at 8;30 am at Festival Square Jim Conboy will lead a bike ride north on the North Central State Trail to and back from the Hoffius Preserve just off US 23. The total round trip distance is 15 1/2 miles. A volunteer will sweep to make sure no one is left behind. Once at the Preserve bikes will be left at the entrance, with a volunteer, and riders will walk about 1/2 mile down to the shore of Lake Huron where the beauty of the Lake can be appreciated. Total time 2 3/4 to 3hours.
While the trail is flat, riders should be prepared to ride the distance comfortably. It is not a ride for young children. Since the path to the shore of Lake Huron includes steps and uneven ground, comfortable walking shoes are advised. Helmets are encouraged.
It would be appreciated if you would sign up for the ride though that is not required to participate.
