Al Capone

In 1924 William Herbert Lee 'Herb' McCourtie transformed his family’s 42-acre farm into a summer home, which would then se many lavish parties with interesting guests, as legend has it.

Did you know Michigan was the first state in the nation to bring drinking back?

It's been said that Capone would come to Albion because it was low on the radar, offered privacy, and he was able to handle business with other mobsters here.

The sinking of Al Capone's party boat is like a glimpse of the past that offers so many wonders about his life and why he would be in Charlevoix, Michigan.
