Historic Fishtown - Leland MI


On an early March trip back from Sutton's Bay we stopped in the 150 year old Historic Fishtown in Leland Michigan on Lake Michigan. Some of the orginal wood plank building are still being used. Some as small fish markets and others as specialty and gift shops.


Also located in Leland is the ferry to the South and North Manitou Islands. Both islands are part of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Shorelines and are managed as wilderness areas for backpacking and camping.

Fishtown was a wonderfully trip to what the part of the world may have looked like at the turn of the 1900s.
