Welcome to DeMawating Development—a premier property management company and proud economic enterprise of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians. We specialize in offering quality rental properties throughout Michigan’s picturesque eastern Upper Peninsula.
Located in Kincheloe, Michigan, on the historic grounds of the former Kincheloe Air Force Base, we are perfectly positioned between Sault Ste. Marie and St. Ignace. After the base’s deactivation in 1977, which left behind 1,100 vacant units, the Sault Tribe began revitalizing the area in 1994. DeMawating Development acquired 296 of these properties, and we have grown significantly since.
Currently, we manage 371 properties, including 307 housing units, 67 self-storage units, 8 commercial spaces, and mobile home parking. Kincheloe is thriving with new amenities, including gas stations, restaurants, shops, and an international airport—all set against the stunning backdrop of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
Our diverse offerings include two, three, and four-bedroom duplexes, as well as three and four-bedroom single-family homes in the Kincheloe area.
In downtown Sault Sainte Marie, our apartments on Portage Street are just steps from the world-famous Sault Locks. Choose from cozy studio, one, and two-bedroom options, complete with on-site coin-operated laundry and private parking.
Riverside Trailer Park, located on the east side of Sault Sainte Marie, overlooks the beautiful St. Mary’s River, directly across from the Charles T. Harvey Marina. This site features spacious parking and easy access to both downtown and scenic Three Mile, making it a prime location for your new home.
For small businesses, our Tamarack Business Center offers commercial properties on Ashmun Street in Sault Sainte Marie. With ample public parking and a central location, your business will benefit from increased visibility and foot traffic.
