Welcome to the official site for visitor information about Clare County Michigan. ​​
​We invite you to visit us and Explore Clare County!
Clare County is called ‘The Gateway to the North’ for good reason; most of our county is undeveloped wooded lands that turn into an amazing display of color during the spring. With colors and scenery rivaling fall, we invite you to Explore Clare County on a Spring Color Tour!
Let us invite you to stroll through art galleries, or take a self guided tour of historic art found throughout the City of Clare.  Some of this art dates back to the depression era through a “public works” program initiated by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
