Bachmann's Store

Bachmann's Store Our old-fashioned dime store has been going strong since 1942, serving locals and visitors for three generations. Here you can find practically EVERYTHING.

Bachmann's has the most amazing inventory you're likely to see, all in our authentic five-and-dime. No kidding. Be sure to check out our historic walk-in safe from when part of the store was Antrim County's first bank. Enjoy our original wooden floors as you discover something you never knew you needed until now. Of course, our top attraction for many visitors is our retro-style candy counter, de

signed to entertain the kids long enough for their parents to shop in relative peace and quiet. Old-fashioned friendly service, carrying on the tradition founded by Paul and Winnie Bachmann in 1942.

A better Thurston Park starts with all of us.

Today, Paddle Antrim, the Village of Central Lake , and the Central Lake Lions officially launched a campaign to improve Thurston Park — creating a more accessible, welcoming, and connected space for everyone.

And there’s exciting news:
The project is eligible for matching funds through Public Spaces Community Places, a program of the Michigan Economic Development Corporation — but only if we first reach our community fundraising goal of $45,000 by August 8.

These improvements will help create:
✔ Accessible water access
✔ Sidewalk connections to downtown
✔ Improved restrooms & an adult changing station
✔ ADA parking & gathering spaces
✔ Better protection of our lakes through invasive species prevention

This project is about making Thurston Park a place where more people can gather, connect to the water, and enjoy everything Central Lake has to offer.

Help us create a Thurston Park for everyone.

The local wildlife in Central Lake is getting out of hand. Send help. (And maybe some tiny snacks) 🐊
