If you live in Michigan, chances are pretty good you've found yourself driving I-75 at one time or another.
But how about this: drive I-75 from Detroit to Sault Ste. Marie and stop at all the underrated sights your readers tell you about?
That's what Detroit Free Press Travel writer Ellen Creager did as "The Michigan Traveler."
Creager drove north on I-75 stopping at places readers suggested. Each attraction was within five miles of the freeway. The trip took four days.
The readers then voted on the most underrated sight on I-75.
The winner was the West Branch Smiley Face. It's a water tower in West Branch, beyond the Tanger Outlets, and it can be seen from the freeway.
The runner-ups on the list were the Straits State Park bridge overlook in St. Ignace, and the Castle Rock lookout point in St. Ignace.
