According to the legend, the daughter of the chief decided to leave the tribe to marry her lover. As she and the man she loved crossed the lake in a canoe, an evil spirit rose from the water and took her. She was never seen again. The lake became known to the Potawatomi as Michemanetue (misheh-MAN-eh-too) the Lake of the Evil Spirit. By the early 20th Century, what is now known as Manitou Beach had vastly transformed from the once quiet Potawatomi village. The area had grown to become a tourist destination, alive with lake-view hotels, bath houses, a dance pavilion, boat rentals, water slides, and restaurants. Steam launches ferried visitors to various attractions around the lake. It was a place to fish and boat and picnic and dance and relax. For nearly a century, Manitou Beach thrived as a premier vacation destination. Then, on April 11, 1965, an F4 tornado tore a path of destruction through Manitou Beach, destroying many buildings, businesses, and homes. Soon after, when economic downturn met this already wounded community, the once vibrant resort town began to fall into disrepair. However, this sad moment of Manitou history was not to be the end of its story. In 2011, Manitou Beach would find a new start from the dreams of successful businessman David Gajda. Gajda had

fond memories of summering in Manitou Beach when he was a child, however, when he returned as an adult, he found only a shadow of the lively resort town he remembered. Yet when Gajda looked at Manitou Beach, he saw hope.

Summer Festival 2026

Saturday, June 20 - 9 to 2

Gajda and his partner, Jose Malagon, had already worked on highly successful revitalization projects in Hollywood, South Beach, and Times Square, and when they looked at Manitou Beach, they saw similar potential. The duo invested in the community, bringing area leaders and businesses together to bring Manitou Beach back in line to its vibrant past.

Open Year Round!

Since 2011, the area has transformed into a quaint beach town and has become a year-round resort and artist community with galleries, restaurants, boutiques, and farmer's markets. The once hard hit area now brings in thousands with festivals like the Devils Lake Festival of the Arts. Manitou Beach has once again become the essence of true Michigan. It is a place where waters are alive with sport, fishing, boating, and swimming. It is a place to shop within quaint beach town boutiques. It is a place where the sun sets in brilliant red and orange streaks across the rippling lake. It is a place to find quiet and stillness as you stand on the lapping shores of the ancient Michemaneutue, pondering legends of old.
