Up North Gift Co. offers you a chance to shop in a relaxed small town setting without the annoyance and stress of the mass merchant stores. We are third-generation retailers in the Bitely area. The Groff/Michalski families have had businesses in the Bitely area since 1922. Located within the vast Manistee National Forest area of Michigan, Up North Gift Co. offers a wide selection of gifts: candles, cabin home decor, nostalgic candy, gourmet food goodies, jewelry, custom signs, Up North apparel, and much more.  Up North Gift Co. is the originator of the University of Bitely items that you have seen around Michigan and beyond. We also carry a good selection of area souvenirs. We also have the only Penny Pinching Machine in the area that produces wonderful "Elongated Pennies" with choices of a Bitely Loon, a Baldwin Trout, or an Up North Moose.
