Northport Attractions

 
Originally called Waukazooville, an Indian mission was established here in 1849 by the Rev. George N. Smith with a group of Ottawa Indians led by Chief Peter Waukazoo. The availability of land and the influx of the white settlers transformed the small mission village into a bustling center of activity by 1854. The area surrounding the harbor was then appropriately renamed "Northport." It is noted for its sandy beaches.
