Bay Mills Township, located in the northern part of Chippewa County, is beautifully situated on the shore of Lake Superior. Running east to west for nearly 24 miles, the Township is narrow in width – ranging from as little as two miles to at most five miles. Its spectacular location can be linked to some of Bay Mills Township’s most unique landmarks, including Point Iroquois Lighthouse, Pendills Creek Fish Hatchery, and the Bay Mills Indian Community reservation.

A substantial portion of the Township’s industry relates back to Bay Mills Indian Community, including the community’s governmental and administrative offices, in addition to enterprises that include casinos, golf course, hotel, restaurants, and health center. Education is also a key employer in the Township, where both the Bay Mills Community College and Brimley Area Schools are found.
