Located on M-66 at the point where Monroe Creek winds its way to the South Arm of Lake Charlevoix is Elm Pointe, one of East Jordan's most lovely parks. Elm Pointe is the site of the pioneer homestead of John Munro and Marceline LaLonde Munro and their family. The property, containing 11 acres of land with frontage on the South Arm of Lake Charlevoix, was given to the City of East Jordan in 1972 by then-owners Augustine F. Westgate and her husband George.
The Elm Pointe location has been added to the Michigan National Historic Register.
