Golf in Manistee

Manistee is the county seat of Manistee County on Lake Michigan's eastern shore, a city whose Victorian commercial district—one of the best-preserved in Michigan—reflects the lumber boom prosperity of the 1880s when Manistee was a major timber port. The beautifully preserved nineteenth-century architecture, the Manistee River that flows through the city to Lake Michigan, and the National Lakeshore land nearby have made Manistee a heritage tourism and outdoor recreation destination whose small-city character appeals to visitors seeking the authentic Michigan lakeshore experience. Multiple golf courses serve the Manistee area's county-seat and resort market.
