LODGING
– HARBOR BEACH
The town of
Harbor Beach does not have any large hotel chains. The city has
several small mom and pop motels and some Bed and Breakfasts.
Most Region 6 racers camp at this race site even - if they are
not normally the camping type. There is just so much to do with
the racing, fireworks and Can-Am Cup – it is one big party.
There are several larger hotels in the town of Bad Axe that is
15-20 minutes away. For those camping you can camp right on
site although there are only restrooms. There is a nice
campground in Harbor Beach just a few miles away if you want a
campground with showers and other facilities.
