Bond Falls Scenic Site — Attraction in Haight Township

BONDS FALLS Scenic Site is a nice place to walk and take in the beauty of nature. The falls are breathtaking and I continue to return each Fall for the changing in color of the various trees. The hike to the falls from the lot is a nice trek not unbearable (probably a good mile or so) , the terrain wooded and somewhat inclining. There is a boardwalk and lookout near the falls and for the adventuresome a way to climb down to get your feet wet and throw some rocks around. A great photography opportunity awaits the falling waters and inhabitants of the area. Landscape is dense, rocky with gentle and steeper inclines, gulleys and smaller streams. This is a very nice area spent for families, hiking & botanical groups, photography clubs, children nature classes and everything in between. I do reccommend this park for people of all ages, gearing toward those who do not have respiratory or joint problems. Wear a supportive closed toe shoe with good traction. This is an outdoor venue so plan on getting abit...

A gorgeous, wonderful sight, just an hour north of Eagle River, WI. Parking at the base of the falls, you will find outhouses and a visitor self-registration station where you're expect to pay the Michigan DNR and one-time daily fee for visiting, which is good at other sites. Bring cash. Today my out of state fee was $9.

For those not able to walk well, the walk to the falls from the parking area is very short on a study and level walkway. From the base, climbing the stairs on the right side of the falls isn't too difficult. That far left side is a different matter; it's a bit more arduous. I have a bad knee and climbed both; I wish I hadn't tried the latter. The climb on the side of the falls is worth every step; there's much more to see than the base of the falls, grand as it is.

There is a seasonal outpost/gift shop on the road above the falls, open mostly in warmer months. I think the outpost closes...

Gorgeous falls! Was impressed with how accessible they are. There are wooden walkways from the parking lot to the day side of the falls. Even a non-motorized wheelchair should have no trouble getting in and getting great views. There are benches.

There is a path up the right side of the falls that is a bit challenging. There are steps, which can be wet. Well worth going up.

My favorite falls in the UP. Less crowded than better known spots.

Note to motorcyclists - if you go to Agate Falls nearby first and use Google maps, it will try to send you by the Agate Cemetery. It is a pretty ride, but the pavement ends quickly. There is a tricky sharp double curve on gravel. If you ride on gravel, it is a pretty good road. If you don't ride on gravel, don't make the turn. There are signs a couple miles on that will direct you to Bond Falls on...
