Marine City, Michigan: We're closer than you think.

Historically, in the days of the wooden freighters, Marine City was known as a ship building center of the Great Lakes. Because of this status, many captains and sailors made their homes here, as evidenced by the grand residential architecture throughout the historic downtown area. Gracious Victorian "Painted Ladies" sit side by side with turn of the century cottages.

Today, waterfront parks are interspersed between unique shopping and dining venues along the historic waterfront. The Peche Island Lighthouse stands guard, keeping a watchful eye over the ever-changing waters of the St. Clair River and our neighbor, Canada.

Although freighter buildling has long since outgrown our Belle River and the maritime building barns are long gone, on occasion you can still see a sailor's family standing by the shore, waiting to catch site of their seafaring loved one on a passing ship.
