For those unfamiliar with the St Clair River delta area it has a long and interesting history. Harsens Island was a resort destination via steamships for the Detroit well-to-do long before the coming of roads to this area. Many early homes still exist on the island. There are large expanses of waterfowl refuge areas. Along the south channel freighters are seen.
