Crescent is a ghost town located on the west shore of North Manitou Island off the Leelanau Peninsula, in Leelanau County, Michigan. The small town was first settled in the 1860s with the arrival of logging and farming industries and European immigrants, reaching its heyday in the early 1900s with the peak of the logging industry on the island. After the mills shut down in 1917, the town was abandoned with the island as a whole pivoting away from industry towards small scale tourism.

After the mills shut down in 1917, the town was abandoned with the island as a whole pivoting away from industry towards small scale tourism. Buildings and other remnants of the town were torn down over the years, with the few remaining buildings currently under the purview of the National Park Service as part of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore after the purchase of the island in 1983. Today, the ghost town is accessible via trails on the island reachable by ferry from Leland. (en)
