People have been flocking this week to a beautiful beach in the tiny community of Port Morien, thanks to a $100,000 set of new stairs.

Laketown Township is examining multiple options for replacing a set of stairs leading to Lake Michigan, which were closed and later removed earlier this year.

A 45 year old Austrian tourist tragically died in Koh Samui after falling down stairs in a hotel early this morning.

Yellow caution tape blocked the steep stairs leading down to the area at 9th Avenue, where the unstable hill and a swath of sand impacted were also blocked off on the beach.
