Promoted by the Flint & Pere Marquette Railroad, Bay Port drew wealthy travelers from Chicago, Cincinnati, and St. Louis looking for fresh air, first-class lodging, and a break from the grime of big cities.Bay Port was no ordinary stop, with electric bells in every room, a mineral well said to have healing powers, and a casino for dancing and bowling. So what happened to this ambitious lakeside resort? And why did it vanish from memory? Join us for a trip back in time to Michigan's Thumb and a look at one of the state's lost vacation hotspots.
