Haslett is named after James and Sarah Haslett, who founded the Nemoka Spiritualist Camp on the shore of Pine Lake, which is now called Lake Lansing.

In the late 1800s, thousands of spiritualists descended on Haslett Park each summer for meetings, readings, lectures, and séances, as James Haslett hoped to make the camp the national headquarters of the spiritualist movement.

After the spiritualist era faded, the lakeshore became a summer recreation destination, and Lake Lansing Amusement Park operated from 1934 to 1974 with a wooden figure-eight roller coaster.

Lake Lansing covers 461 acres in Haslett and offers two public parks, Lake Lansing Park North and Lake Lansing Park South, with beaches, fishing, and a boat launch.

The Texas town of Haslet, spelled with one 't,' was named after Haslett, Michigan, by a railroad worker who relocated from Michigan in the late 1800s.
