Ski Brule is located in the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan, just over the Wisconsin/Michigan border. A family ski vacation is only a short drive away. Don’t always rely on your GPS because sometimes it will take you the “long way” to Ski Brule or might not have signal in the Northwoods of Wisconsin and Michigan.
