Fall at Hugo’s on The Bay is really something special. It’s actually something I don’t ever miss and I’m currently finalizing the itinerary for a few days there with a few friends.
Dinner al fresco while we still can. Pour-over coffee, because up north you actually have time to craft the perfect cup and sit with it on the dock instead of rushing through. The perfect hike to watch the leaves turning. We always finish a book together that we all started before arriving, just a fun little tradition. A trip to the sauna, a seasonal farm-to-table meal, some c***r, a little shopping.
But my favorite part? Right around dusk, the Sandhill Cranes come in for the night. They gather on the shore by the cabin, all together, looking out for each other until morning. My girls tease me because I call them “my cranes” and at last count there were 19 of them. Some of my best moments here are just sitting on the dock, watching them land one by one. Savoring a sunset with nowhere to be.
Swipe to the last slide to see them.
Hugo’s on The Bay is open Oct 30–Nov 1 and Nov 7–9.
