2023 Map of Manning

About this map

Manning sits at a crossroads in Cheboygan County, marking a pocket of settlement south of the expansive wetlands and forests that characterize this portion of Northern Michigan. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, with the Black River flowing northward through the terrain, passing through a network of water bodies including Twin Lakes and Lake Sixteen. To the northeast, the elevation rises sharply toward Black Mountain, where the Black Mountain Recreation Area Trl provides access to the higher ground overlooking the lake systems.
