Since the 1800's...
In the 1800’s this region was a vast uncut forest that provided logging employment for any and all hearty enough to survive it.
Northern Alger, Luce and Chippewa counties were dotted with logging camps a day or even several days travel from the closest town, Newberry.
The postmaster created a solution to communicating with all the residents of these remote camps by placing a large iron mailbox on a huge white pine stump at a major intersection in the logging roads.
“Pine Stump Junction” appears on county road maps as early as the 1860’s.
We may never really know what Pine Stump was really like back then, but I think it’s safe to assume it would have been the perfect place to meet friends, catch up on the local gossip and relax for a while.
Fond Memories
October 14, 1959, R.J. and Mary C. Fair purchased Pine stump, “Ted” & “Molly” owned and operated Pine stump with the help of their family Bob, Janet and Harvey for 31 years. The Fair’s created many of the legends and fond memories that really put Pine Stump on the Map.
In 2011 father and daughter, Larry & Genna White bought the Pine Stump and renovated inside and out. With doing so they really brought the place back to life.
Marissa Metcalf was the owner from 2015 until 2020 and helped improve pine stump with improvements and great food.
Keeping with Tradition
In 2020 Rob Stein purchased Pine Stump. Rob continues to make needed improvements and guided Pine Stump through a pandemic. Rob kept the same great menu and added some fantastic new items along the way.
Rob is always working to make sure the customer’s experience consistently exceeds expectations and helps to ensure you have the best time possible.
Keeping with tradition the new Pine Stump is a meeting place for “Out North” folks and all of those passing through this beautiful country.
"Had an ice cold beer and glass of wine, watched the Lions game while eating the delicious pizza! Restroom was clean, plenty of parking, fun atmosphere."
