Tashmoo Park and The Steamer Tashmoo
Tashmoo Park, located 20 miles north of Detroit on Harsen’s Island, opened in 1897. Completed in 1900, The Tashmoo Steamer was the grandest excursion steamer of her day. For nearly 50 years, Tashmoo was Detroit’s most popular park destination, and a trip aboard the Tashmoo was a highlight of the summer season.
