Description
Interlochen State Park. The title of the postcard is "Michigan Sate Park" and is an early picture of the Interlochen park. It was also called "Pine Park". Both names were used before the Michigan State Park Commission was formed in 1917. After that It was known by its present name.
Interlochen was platted in 1890 where the M&NE and C&WM railroads crossed. It quickly became a lumber town and later after the lumber was gone, served the resorts, cottages, State Park and camps that grew up around the lakes.
