When you've been here for a week and craving Chinese carryout, this is the best I've found near Harrison...from Regina It's in Mount Pleasant, about 40 minutes away. So if you're planning to be near there, then place the order and bring home. There is no dine-in service at First Wok. Totally dissatisfied with Hang's Chinese restaurant in Harrison. Don't do it!!

About 40 minutes away, but definitely the place to go when you really want a large variety of shopping (Walmart, Sams Club, Meijer, Home Depot, Menards, etc.) and dining (national and small restaurant) options.

So it's a bit of a drive from Harrison, but if you're a Christmas holiday lover, this is a nice experience. The store is humongous with interesting stuff. You're bound to walk out with something! OR get ideas for DIY projects!

This is the mid-size campground where your rental is located. Peaceful, quiet, and a great community of campers! The closest to the Leota Trailhead and you can ride your ORV straight there.

Neighborhoods

Harrison is a small town with mostly family owned businesses. There's also some national restaurants in the center, like McDonald's, Little Ceasars, Dairy Queen, and you'll find Burger King on the south end. The family restaurants are all over. Also plan to check out the Clare County Fairgrounds for the County Fair usually at the end of July.

Besides the actual lake, this is a really nice tourist town about 20 minutes north of the campground. There's a Walmart, Home Depot, Camping World, & Tracker Supply, Arby's, Little Ceasars, and McDonalds as the biggest national chain stores. But there are a bunch of smaller mom & pops, nurseries, around town around the lake. Be careful you don't mistakenly drive into the water!

Groceries!

Coming from a big city, it was pretty interesting to visit something like a Walmart, but different. A real country store with a meat counter with a huge display, a real bakery area, etc.

They have everything -- hot foods/deli, fresh fruits and veggies, and a huge grocery area. And everything else Walmart is known for having.
