Blood, Trauma, and Biohazard Cleanup in Lewiston, MI

Lewiston is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Albert Township, southwestern Montmorency County, in Michigan's northern Lower Peninsula, and it is the county's largest settlement.

Lewiston was established in 1891, and its post office first opened on April 25, 1892, during the area's lumber boom; the community is also known as "Timber Town."

The Lewiston Area Historical Society Museum occupies an original 1892 Lewiston home first owned by David Kneeland, manager of the Michelson & Hanson Lumber Company.

Lewiston had 996 residents at the 2020 census, down sharply from 1,392 in 2010, a swing driven largely by the CDP's many seasonal lake homes.

Nearly 38% of the CDP's 4.1 square miles is water: it is centered on the north side of East Twin Lake and wraps around the lake, with West Twin Lake downstream in the Au Sable River watershed.

Lewiston's population skews older — at the 2000 census a third of residents were 65 or older and the median age was 55 — and it is a center for lake recreation 16 miles southwest of Atlanta, the county seat.

Montmorency County is one of the few Michigan counties that allow ATVs on public county roads, giving riders access to fuel, food and lodging in Lewiston, Atlanta and Hillman.
