Huron Shores Club House, Forester: A Thumb-Era Gathering Spot

A vintage postcard view shows the Huron Shores Club House in Forester — a big, bright building with a long screened porch and room for a crowd. What memories do you have of Huron Shores or Forester back in the day?

The Huron Shores Club House in Forester, Michigan, sits wide and welcoming in this vintage real-photo postcard view — a long, low building with dormer windows and a screened porch facing open lawn.

“Huron Shores” is tied to golf and get-togethers in Michigan’s Thumb. Today, Huron Shores Golf Club is based in the Port Sanilac area and traces its start to 1925, when it began as a 9-hole course — but the exact date of this image isn’t printed on the card.

Do you remember dinners, dances, or summer days at Huron Shores — or have a story about Forester back then?
