Mission Hill Overlook, perched on a scenic ridge in Bay Mills (near Brimley, Michigan), offers breathtaking views of Spectacle Lake below and sweeping vistas of Lake Superior, the St. Mary’s River, and even the Canadian shoreline on clear days. The overlook rises about 165 ft (50 m) above Spectacle Lake, giving visitors a dramatic, tree-framed panorama ideal at sunrise or during peak fall colors . Accessible via a one‑lane paved drive up Tower Road, it’s part of a moderate 3.6‑mile round-trip hike passing hardwoods and towering pines.
