Fisher Mill prologue This book came about as a spin-off of Glen Arbor’s Bicentennial celebration. Gathering infor- mation about historical landmarks for county recognition, locating photos and relics for the mini- museum, tape recording the memories of senior citizens, we re-discovered a vivid past. Many younger members of the community were fasci- nated too. Glen Arbor Township never grew to the greatness of Ann Arbor, or to the fame of other “Glens” and “Harbors” in Michigan.

  • INTRODUCTION a Sense of the Place the Leelanau
    INTRODUCTION A Sense of the Place The Leelanau Peninsula is one of those places that visitors love because it conforms so readily to their idea of it. It is a place to resort, to recreate, to escape the pace of city life, to find solitude and seek tranquility. In the slapdash language of travel magazines it is both a destination and a state of mind; a Mecca for nature lovers; a precious gem awaiting discovery; the Riviera of the North and the Cape Cod of the Great Lakes Such designations mean nothing, of course. A place can’t be captured in easy phrases. To understand Leelanau you must spend time there. To know the place – any place – you must invest yourself in it, dig into it with your hands and feet, bury your face in it, get a noseful, an earful, a mouthful. It feels like home to me. I worked here summers when I was a kid, and year-round as a young man, and have lived most of my life within a few miles of it. I’ve hiked, fished, hunted, biked, camped, skied here; have returned for family reunions, graduations, weddings, and funerals. My mother and her sisters and brother were born in Glen Arbor and spent much of their early lives exploring the dunes, the woods, and the Lake Michigan shore. My father’s family bought acreage in the southern portion of the county in the 1940s and established the original Sleeping Bear Farms, where they grew cherries and made maple syrup and raised palominos. Several dozen of my cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and shirtsleeve relatives on both sides live here or are buried here.

  • Chapter 3 Current Conditions
    CHAPTER 3 CURRENT CONDITIONS This chapter presents information on the characteristics of land, natural features and buildings in Glen Arbor Township. It is based in part on the General Characteristics section in the 1984 Plan, but contains updates and additional information. Land Overview Glen Arbor Township consists of a total area of land and inland lakes, rivers and streams of approximately 39 square miles (22,607 acres). Of this, South Manitou Island is 5,286 acres and rests about 6 miles from the closest mainland point and for most people is accessed by ferry from Leland. The Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore accounts for 75 percent of the area, (and includes South Manitou Island) and Big and Little Glen Lakes another 17 percent. The privately owned land area of the Township amounts to only about 3,800 acres (almost six square miles). The characteristics that are most representative of the Township include the waterfronts of Glen Lake and Lake Michigan, the Sleeping Bear Dunes, the Crystal River, high hills and steep hillsides and the extensive tree vegetation. These natural features have influenced the major land use patterns in the Township. Residential development is most evident around the Glen Lakes, Fisher Lakes, Lake Michigan, and on high hills, while Glen Arbor village, the Homestead and the Leelanau School are the only concentrations of development. As elsewhere, residential development is attracted to the waterfront for the visual beauty, recreation and serenity associated with it.
