Old Victoria Days
Just down the road from Rockland, Michigan, where the inn is located, is the site of Old Victoria, a collection of restored cabins once used by the copper miners in the 1800's. The site gives a good idea of what conditions were like in those days, and what it took to survive and raise a family. Old Victoria Days are held every year (this is the 39th event) in mid-August. Not to be missed are the hot cinnamon buns baked in the wood-fired stove in one of the cabins. Plenty of crafts are displayed and for sale as well.

The images are of the various cabins at Old Victoria as well as images showing the loft of one cabin where five beds made up the sleeping quarters. Other images show a visitor signing in in the kitchen of one of the cabins, a wood stove much like the one used to make the cinnamon rolls, visitors getting information on one of the more elegant cabins, complete with plaster walls, and a local woman dressed in period costume weaves rugs on her loom.
