A distinctly Michigan attraction, the Shrine of the Pines features over 200 handcrafted items from Michigan White Pines.
Our WCSG Travelin Together series visits a uniquely Michigan historical site, situated just off the Manistee National Forest.
The Shrine of the Pines offers a unique perspective on the use of Michigan White Pine trees. The former owner handcrafted over 200 items using Michigan white pine trees and a set of tools that are still on display. Small chairs and tables are among the items he painstakingly created out of mostly tree stumps, in an effort to showcase the beauty of the natural wood. The centerpiece is a dining table, carved from a 700 pound wood stump. The lodge is located just off of 37, south of Baldwin. You can also explore portions of the Manistee National Forest nearby.
