Default Manitou Island
Has anyone visited or moored overnight in the Manitou Island area. Specifically on South Manitou in the refuge harbor. I have been looking for a secluded spot to hang out for a few days and am not sure how busy of an area this is.

Thanks
Knot a Clue

Manitou Islands are approx 20 miles off the coast on Lake Michigan just across from Traverse Bay. They are a part of the sleeping bear dunes.

South Manitou, Northern Lake Michigan, is wonderful. The last couple of times I was there the number of boats ranged from 5-10. The harbor is plenty big that even with 10 boats you can be far enough away to be "secluded".
