Neebish Island

Neebish Island is an island in the U.S. state of Michigan in the St. Marys River between the United States and the Canadian province of Ontario. It is divided into two parts known as "Big Neebish" and "Little Neebish" which are divided by a river which is sometimes more mud than river and is known as 'the dark hole' or 'the black hole' by Neebish Islanders. Big Neebish is home to Neebish Island resort, and Little Neebish is host to family cottages, many of which have belonged to the same families for generations. There was once a small general store and resort, known as the Little Neebish Resort on Little Neebish, but it burned down in the nineties. Plans to rebuild have been underway for over a decade and appear to be drawing to a close. Since then Neebish Island Resort and Campground has put up a store and run it seasonally for all of the islanders.
