Welcome to Hamilton Township

Located in Clare County, Michigan between the towns of Harrison and Gladwin, Hamilton Township has a balance of farmland, small communities, lakes, rivers, and beautiful rolling landscape. Of the 2,600 property owners, many are retirees and/or part time residents. Hamilton Township is a place to enjoy the peace, beauty, and natural resources of Northern Michigan.

Hamilton Township condemns the use of abusive or hurtful comments, foul language, hate speech, personal attacks, and defamatory statements toward employees, staff, and elected officials.  This conduct will not be tolerated and may result in removal of the offender, refusal of service, and reporting to local law enforcement.

                                              Hamilton Township has accepted the bid from MLR Engineering as the Prime Professional Manager for construction of the new Hamilton Township Park.
