Swan River (Michigan)

The Swan River is a small river located in northern Michigan, primarily within Presque Isle County. It flows generally eastward, emptying into Lake Huron. The river's watershed is largely forested, and its waters support a variety of fish and wildlife. While not a major river system, the Swan River contributes to the overall ecology of the region and is utilized for recreational activities like fishing and canoeing/kayaking, particularly during periods of high water. It's relatively undeveloped compared to some other Michigan rivers, maintaining a more natural character. The river's name likely originates from the presence of swans at some point in its history, although their current presence may vary.
