Are you fascinated by tales of the Old West? There’s something undeniably exciting about imagining a time when cowboys roamed the land and horses were the most common mode of transportation. While Michigan might not be the first state that comes to mind when you think “Old West,” there’s one spot here in the Great Lakes State where you’ll find a fun dose of that old-fashioned atmosphere.

The Painted Lady Saloon is located at 723 Kosciusko St in Manistee.
