Lakeview Area Museum

The Lakeview Area Museum was formed in 1994 and opened to the public in June of 1996 to preserve and share the history of the Lakeview area. A colorful sign identifies the museum, located in a former well house/police station/food pantry building in the northern end of downtown Lakeview. View the history of our town’s logging, farming, schools, businesses, organizations, recreation, and home life. Outdoor displays include the 1895 village jail cell, a horse-drawn road grader, and a cannon. A huge fire in 1894 wiped out all of the downtown businesses, but the town was quickly rebuilt and is proud to have celebrated its 150th anniversary in June of 2017. 

107 North Lincoln Avenue, Lakeview, MI (no mail)
Our museum hours of operation during the summer are June-Sep, 10am-2pm or by appointment.
