Clifton was a community in Allouez Township, Keweenaw County, Michigan, that was founded in support of the Cliff mine—a mine opened in 1845 by the Pittsburgh and Boston Mining Company after copper was discovered there.

[1][2] The remnants of the community are located between Calumet and Eagle Harbor, off of Cliff Drive, alongside U.S. Route 41 in the Keweenaw Peninsula.

At one point, the town supported an independent brewery called the Clifton Bottling Works.

[1] After the Cliff mine exhausted the copper deposit, the town became deserted.
