Hemingway's Petoskey

Saturday, August 7, 2010

Ernest Hemingway, whose family had summered on Walloon Lake since the
late 1890's, became a frequent guest of the City Park Grill. He would
sit at the second seat from the end of the bar and write the material
that eventually would make him world-famous. His story "A Man of the
World" makes mention of the Annex and surrounding buildings.
