[2] Stronach Township is the oldest non-native settlement in Manistee County.

[citation needed] In 1840 Joseph Stronach cleared a site to establish a sawmill in the township.

28.2% of all households were made up of individuals, and 11.8% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.

Stronach is located within the Huron–Manistee National Forests and has thousands of acres of unspoiled habitat for wildlife.

In addition to world class fly fishing,[citation needed] the following may be found within the township: white-tailed deer, mink, black bear, bald eagle, coyote, and the invasive savannah monitor lizard.
