In its prime--a century or so ago--Glen Haven, Michigan, was more a commercial convenience than a true village; it was originally a logging port, then a location for D.H. Day's cherry cannery. There was a hotel, a store, a handful of homes, an enormous dock, and the wonderful beach I've shown once or twice before. By the time I first encountered the place in the early 1960s, its main claims to fame were that it terminated Michigan's shortest state highway , and that it hosted the Sleeping Bear Dune Ride concession. Both are gone. There are still houses along the beach, but they seem more a part of the lakeshore than part of the village.

Jolli has a central lodge--that's this building--and a fairly large number of cabins and other dwellings scattered around the grounds. Lake Michigan's just barely visible in the lower left corner. Camera: Nikon N90s. 1999; near Leland, Michigan.
