Emmet County

Emmet County brings Great Lakes shoreline together with a wooded rural interior in a manner shaped by its setting between Lake Michigan and the Straits of Mackinac. At its northern edge, Mackinaw City stands beside the Mackinac Bridge, linking Michigan’s Lower and Upper peninsulas across the straits. Little Traverse Bay defines the waterfronts of Petoskey and Harbor Springs, while farms, forests and small communities extend inland. The county is closely associated with the Petoskey stone, a fossil coral designated Michigan’s state stone. Fort Michilimackinac recalls the 18th-century fur-trade era at this strategic crossing.
