Conway offers lakeside living with a relaxed pace, set along the western edge of Crooked Lake and just minutes from Petoskey, Harbor Springs, and Alanson in scenic Emmet County. Boaters and paddlers love the access to the storied Inland Waterway, where a day on Crooked Lake can stretch into a cruise through the Crooked River and beyond. With US-31 nearby, commuting, shopping, and dining are easy, yet evenings still feel quiet enough to hear loons call across the water.
Outdoor enthusiasts have year-round options. The paved-to-packed North Western State Trail rolls right through the corridor for cycling, jogging, and snowmobiling. Sandy shores and clear Lake Michigan water await at Petoskey State Park, a favorite for swimming, sunsets, and winter fat-tire rides. Families enjoy hands-on ecology and trout history at the Oden State Fish Hatchery Visitor Center. Winter brings first-rate skiing and riding at nearby resorts, while downtown events in Petoskey and Harbor Springs keep the calendar full with markets, art, and music.
Students are served by the well-regarded Public Schools of Petoskey, with additional educational, athletic, and arts opportunities just a short drive away. Whether you’re eyeing a year-round home or a seasonal retreat, Conway blends lake access, trail networks, and small-community convenience. When it’s time to move, Agent Pronto can connect you with a great real estate agent—whether you’re buying or selling.
