Six Cottages At The Old Club On Harsens Island Destroyed By Fire

A tragedy strikes the local community of Harsens Island in Clay Township, with the destruction of six cottages located on the property of The Old Club. 

On Wednesday, March 8th, a fire broke out which caused the destruction of six cottages located on the property. The homes are typically used as a summer vacation for those visiting the area.

There is currently no cause for the fire, as it is still undergoing investigation. There are currently no reported injuries in the incident and the Board of Directors are securing a professional team of environmental specialists to advise on cleanup to lessen the environmental impact of the blaze. 

The Old Club celebrated its 150th Year Anniversary last season, but the owners say they won’t let this setback deter them from continuing a century and a half of tradition.
