Hersey is a village in Osceola County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The population was 374 at the time of the 2000 census. The village is located within Hersey Township. Hersey is a small rural community that started as a lumber town in the early 1800s. The Hersey General store, a landmark in the area for over 100 years, was lost to a fire in 2008. The commercial district now consists of a sole gas station/pizza house, the Hersey Party Store. The beautiful Rails to Trails bike and winter sports path passes through Hersey, running immediately to Reed City on the western side, and to Evart on the eastern. The village and a locally-run campground, Blodgett Landing, (www.blodgettlanding.com), are located at the confluence of the Hersey and Muskegon Rivers, two of the best trout streams in the state of Michigan. Located on the eastern edge of town lies a bridge with a clearance of 20 feet over the Hersey River. This bridge-jumping-enthusiast's dream has long been a popular bridge-jumping site for youngsters and older, more drunken tubers on hot summer days.
