What to Do in Manistee

As early as 1790 French and English fur traders inhabited the area that the Chippewa called Manistee, “spirit of the woods.” Thousands of scenic acres of Huron-Manistee National Forests still stand in preservation today. The 19th-century logging frenzy ensured that the name would outlive the woods, yet the people–mainly Swedes and Norwegians–who came to shear the timber stayed to develop the city.
