A town in northern
Michigan, just south and east of the
Mackinac Bridge. Incorporated in 1899. Home to
Onaway State Park,
Black Lake and the nearby
UAW recreation center. The permanent population is just over 1,000 people, with some growth during the summer as vacationers and seasonal residents move in.
Notable for the Sturgeon Shivaree in the last weekend of February, a festival to celebrate the sturgeon of Black Lake. Also a fine place to hunt for the elusive morel mushroom as well as the odd bolete.
