"My favorite place in northwest Michigan. The hydroplant is massive but tranquil. There is a path to an overlook of the reservoir, as well as a bridge over the road to an overlook of the plant and a view of Lake Michigan. The entire system is an amazing feat of engineering."
"Beautiful view of Lake Michigan. Very unique hydro generating plant."
"A 2300MWh battery that does not require heavy metals mining or hazardous chemical waste (take that, Elon!). A precursor to a renewable energy future with wind/solar powering pumps during the day to deliver consistent reliable power at night........ wonderful views and site too!"
"Really interesting place which is a joint effort between Consumers Energy and Detroit Edison. Water is pumped up to the reservoir at night and released during the day to generate energy. When it was built, it was the biggest of its kind in the world and it was won engineering awards."
"Amazing viewing area easy to get to gorgeous place to watch sunset"
