HESSEL & CEDARVILLE
In the 17th century, European explorers and fur traders sojourned through this wooded and protected waterway of 36 islands and homeland of the Anishinaabe called Les Cheneaux, by the French explorers, an expression referring to “The Channels.”
Today, sheltered bays along the 12-mile coastland, unique and colorful boat houses, sandy beaches, woodland trails, and natural beauty of the area welcome contemporary explorers and offer four seasons of fun, rest, and relaxation for vacationers and residents alike. Two thousand people call Clark Township home, living in Cedarville and Hessel in the Les Cheneaux Islands.
