Presque Isle Township is a civil township of Presque Isle County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 1,376 at the 2010 census. ==Communities== Presque Isle is a small unincorporated community within the township located near the shore of Lake Huron. It is approximately 15 miles north of Alpena, and 15 miles south of Rogers City. The community and the township are named for Presque Isle (literally, "almost an island") which is French for "peninsula". A large part of the township consists of that peninsula, with Lake Huron on the east and Grand Lake on the west and narrows strips of land connecting it to the mainland at the north and south ends. The community of Presque Isle is situated near the center of this peninsula. The infamous "haunted" (according to local rumor) Old Presque Isle Lighthouse is located near this settlement and is open to the public. The New Presque Isle Lighthouse was built in 1870. The southwest corner of the township is cut off from the rest of the township by Long Lake. The small community of Orchard Point is located there. Presque Isle is also home to Camp Chickagami, a camp owned by the Episcopal Diocese of Eastern Michigan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Presque Isle Township, Michigan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
