In the past, the Lodge installed EV chargers to help attract these eco-tourists.

For downhill and cross-country skiers, Keweenaw Peninsula is the Midwest’s best in snow
Keweenaw Mountain Lodge emphasizes the peninsula’s tranquility. It encourages ditching screens for skis. It’s a place where people cease staring down at their phones and instead look up at the cosmos. The remote wilderness replaces the television remote. Here, nature is the show. Convening with nature in Keweenaw fosters connecting with your own self. “We aren’t for everybody but what ends up happening here is something pretty special and unique that gets people to their roots,” Mueller said. “When people leave the lodge, they are more knowledgeable than when they came.”
