Water Cave

The river flows through the Hendrie River Water Cave, forming the longest cave in Michigan, at 1500 feet. A stream exits from the cave to form the west branch of the Hendrie river. This cave is managed by the Michigan Karst Conservancy. A permit is required to enter, for reasons of safety and white nose disease.
