Port Hope, MI

Port Hope sits right on the Lake Huron shoreline near the tip of Michigan’s Thumb, offering a quiet, unhurried pace of life. Community gatherings and summer weekends tend to revolve around Stafford County Park, a scenic waterfront spot with campsites, cabins, and direct access to the beach. The massive brick chimney from an 1850s lumber mill still stands near the water, serving as the village's defining historic landmark.
