Sanilac County, Michigan
![]() |
|||||||||
|
Sanilac County is located in the Thumb of Michigan on the west shore of Lake Huron, two hours drive from Michigan's main metropolitan areas. The county covers 972 square miles or some 622,000 acres of some of the richest farmland in the Midwest. Some say the name "Sanilac" means "without lake" and it's true that Sanilac County hasn't one natural lake. However, the Black River runs through the entire county from north to south and 40 miles of Lake Huron shoreline forms the eastern boundry of the county. This unique region offers many interesting sights. Native Americans carved a massive stone depicting early hunters, symbols and animals and it can be seen at the Sanilac County Petrogylphs in the northern part of the county. The Sanilac County Underwater Preserve is 163 square miles and protects ships dating as far back as 1864, a treasure trove for divers. The Sanilac County 4-H Fair, usually held the third week of July, features livestock shows and sales, thousands of exhibits and an exciting midway. The fair is held at 260 Dawson Street in Sandusky. For more information about the county fair, please call (810) 648-0328. |
