Neighborhoods
Take a tour of Historic Downtown Calumet, visit the museum, have a great cup of coffee or just shop.

Amy J's makes a great pasty (sliced potato rather than cubed), but also has other baked goods. Baked goods are always different, but you may find a Finnish tart that is one of the best!
