AuTrain Island IS Au Train, MI 49806

Au Train Island is a true Lake Superior landmark offering over 2 miles of pristine frontage and 106 acres of forest. The island's appeal draws from a variety of offerings including natural beauty, location, and availability. The forest is old growth northern hardwoods and hemlock and offers a variety of habitats including a blue heron rookery and frequent sightings of Bald Eagles, often more than one at a time. Some of the large trees are nearly 10 feet around. Also included in the island's foliage is the lady's slipper flower and Canadian Yew ground cover. The dramatic Lake Superior frontage offers rocky beach shorelines, towering cliffs, scenic vistas and sandstone caves, some nestled back into the woods.
