Glen Park Mineral Springs
Augustine W. Farr bought this property in transactions during 1880. In 1882, he deeded it to the Onekama Lumber Company, of which he was president; Farr and Charles Secor, treasurer of the Lumber Company, were both active in the development of the Glen, where the first bona fide resort in Manistee County rose and fell during the late 1800's. The springs on the property had “rare combinations of the curative and health-giving properties,” as found in testing. Today the springs are frequently visited by locals and tourists alike.
