The setting for our community has been described by many as a little piece of heaven, located on the shores of beautiful Lake Michigan, and blessed with sandy beaches second to none. Wooded sand dunes stretch from north to south along the township shoreline, providing some of nature's perfect habitat for white tailed deer, fox, coyote, porcupine, squirrel and occasionally black bear have been sighted. Pentwater Township Online Calendar Pentwater's livelihood has a varied history starting with the earliest days as a lumbering community. When the timber ran out, furniture factories, brick factories, and commercial fishing sprang up. In 1867 the Village of Pentwater was founded and quickly became the hub of the community, located on the easterly shores of Pentwater Lake. The early part of the 20th century saw Pentwater becoming a vacation/resort community, which is how it is today.
