Manitou Beach Updates
What a perfect 4th of July week we had! Sunshine, lake, friends and family. And how about those fireworks? Amazing! Great show put on by the Devils and Round Lakes Fireworks Association.
Here at Devils Lake View Living, we have a wonderful new option from our local artist! Bring in a photo of your home, pet or cottage and get it hand painted on an ore! It looks gorgeous and would be a perfect addition to any home. The custom ore is $150. Bring in a photo today or e-mail us your photo at darlene@devilslakeviewliving.com!
We are open 7 days a week!
Manitou Beach Seafood Company
I have been asked many times what this new building next to Devils Lake View Living so here is the story. Mike Appling from Devils Lake Watersports owns this building and has for many years. Last year he decided to give it an exterior facelift so that it looks great like the other buildings in Manitou Beach Village. While is really is not a Sea Food Company nor a Cannery, it does house the Manitou Beach Farmers Market each Saturday during the summer. It will also be the location for the “Rockin the Hills” Craft Beer Festival on Aug 1st from 3p-9p, sponsored by The Brooklyn Irish Hills Chamber of Commerce.
We are so appreciative that Mike chose to invest in his building and add to the beautification of the village. Of course, none of this would be taking place without Dave Gajda and Jose Malagon who have designed and invested in rebuilding the village. They brought the village back to life!!!—and there is more to come!
Manitou Beach Village Featured in Pure Michigan Campaign
We are excited to announce that the Manitou Beach Village has been featured in the “Six Pure Michigan Activities to Experience in Lenawee County” campaign! Here’s a little look at the article:
Devil’s Lake located less than 10 miles south of the track off of US-223, with a public boat access located on Southwest shore off Devils Lake Hwy (Across the street from 9555 Devils Lake Hwy, Manitou Beach). Manitou Beach is a great place for a bike ride, with stops at Jenni’s Coffee and Cream for an iced coffee or ice cream cone. Enjoy lunch or dinner at Manitou Bar and Grill and shopping at Devils Lake View Living, and The Buoy at The Lake which both offer jewelry, purses, home décor and more.

Pure Michigan Ad Coming
Exciting news!
NEW LOCAL PURE MICHIGAN RADIO SPOT WITH TIM ALLEN
The Lenawee County Conference and Visitors Bureau is partnering with Travel Michigan, the state’s tourism – marketing arm, this fall to produce a radio spot to promote tourism to the area. The Pure Michigan ads, recorded by actor Tim Allen, will begin playing in targeted areas in the Great Lakes region this September.
Travel Michigan has found success with the Pure Michigan ad campaign, attracting 4 million visitors from outside the state in 2013. All of the ads direct people to visit the state’s website michigan.org Partner organizations are featured on the home page and direct people to the local area’s website.
LENAWEE COUNTY CVB will be listed as a hot spot under the name “IRISH HILLS” as Travel Michigan aims to brand the area with an easy name and one that is recognizable nationwide, thanks to Michigan International Speedway.
This is a great opportunity to showcase local attractions and festivals throughout the Irish Hills. Bringing more visitors to our area is a such wonderful benefit!
