Dighton - Sherman Township, Michigan
49688
  |
Sherman Township is located on the near northwestern border of Osceola County. It includes the community of Dighton. A distinctive feature of this township is that it contains the highest point in Michigan�s Lower Peninsula. It also includes Center Lake, which is bordered on one side by a retreat center and the other side by a Bible camp. The broadcast tower of a major TV station is also located here - an obviously ideal place for accessing the airways. M-115 cuts across the northeast corner of the township, with Cadillac only 5 miles away. Dighton was first settled by Harvey Iler in 1884 where he became the first postmaster. This community once thrived and included a two-story schoolhouse, which can still be seen from the main road. The Post Office remained in operation until 1955. The General Store there is still open for business.
