Melstrand Union General Store is a well-run great little general store, a destination stop during the snowmobile season. It has a wide range of needed supplies and fun things, with a great selection on just about everything including all kinds of Coleman fuel and a good liquor selection. Don't forget the ice cream and homemade cookies. A great food truck outside is superior, serving the best burger, a Western Deluxe, and fresh fries. If you are caught in a pickle you can get gas also. However, some recent experiences note very rude service, with shouting about closing the door. There is also a posted sign about a fuel upcharge per sled, and fuel prices were higher than others in the area. A minimum purchase requirement for card transactions was found inconvenient.
Fantastic little shop on the way to Pictured Rocks. My friends were able to get some much needed rain coats before the hike.

I have visited here for 20+ years. It has been and still is a well run great little general store. A wide range of needed supplies and fun things. Don't forget the ice cream!
