In the shade of the old locusts at lovely Dorsey Park on Little Glen Lake lies the original Dorsey cabin. Built around 1860, it’s one of the oldest structures, if not the oldest building, in Leelanau County. On any given day, from April to October, you might find the cabin door open. There, you’ll see an 83-year-old man working at his scroll saw, creating beautiful, ornate items. He gives away everything he makes.
