Crawford County, Michigan
Crawford County is up in the northern part of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula. It’s a place where nature takes center stage and forests cover much of the land.
The county’s named after Colonel William Crawford, a soldier in the American Revolution. The area’s known for its military roots, with Camp Grayling nearby.
Grayling (the county seat) sits along the AuSable River, a paradise for fly fishing. But if trees could talk, Crawford County would have some wild stories to tell.
