You are right about all the beech along that stretch. West of the Escanaba River though, you'll not find much outside of some SW of Escanaba.

Yes, lots of beech down the Stonington and Garden Peninsula's
 
You DON'T wanna burn that red oak . . . highly acidic and it will eat your boiler alive. It's also poisonous so you don't want that stuff around!

Where you at??

I believe you are thinking about CEDAR. That is everything you said. I live in the Houston area and Cedar trees are everywhere. I even have one in my yard. Its great for a number of projects but burning NOT.
