Good evening friends,
I love this little harbor. This is Fayette Historic State Park’s harbor in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Fayette is a former townsite where pig iron was manufactured and then shipped to steel companies in the Great Lakes area. The town was bustling from 1867-1891. Several homes in townsite have been restored, as well as the hotel, and a building describing the pig iron manufacturing business. There are 19 buildings onsite in all. There is a campground, a picnic area, and trails to walk alongside the harbor and Sand Bay in Lake Michigan.
