Cabins and Supplies on U.S. 2: Miller’s at Little Hog Island (1958)

Two cars idle at the pumps outside Miller’s General Store — part of Jim and Mort Miller’s Cabins — near Little Hog Island along U.S. 2, about 35 miles west of St. Ignace (1958).

This is pure mid-century Upper Peninsula travel: a roadside stop where you could gas up, grab supplies, and head for the water, woods, or a cabin on Lake Michigan. The big “CABINS AND SUPPLIES” paint job tells you exactly who they were serving — tourists, anglers, and hunters rolling west on U.S. 2.

Do you remember places like this on U.S. 2 — or have family stories from Little Hog Island or the old cabin camps?
