Welcome to the Mason County Sheriff’s Office! Serving our community on the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan.
(213)

Th this page will share News & safety updates as well as promotional events. The mission of the Mason County Sheriff’s Office is to enforce the laws of the State of Michigan and to protect the innocent from those who would violate those laws by diligent traffic enforcement, thorough criminal investigation and by the humane incarceration of those sentenced by the courts. The power and authority of the sheriff to accomplish this mission derives from the United States Constitution and the Constitution of the State of Michigan. It does not come from a city charter, a governor, a judge or a president; it comes from ” We the people”. Vision Statement:
The purpose of the Mason County Sheriff’s Office is to fulfill the mission of the Sheriff. This is done by the following:
Pride: Being professional in our conduct on and off duty and conducting ourselves to a higher standard through excellence, training and self-discipline. Tradition: Remembering the heritage of those who have gone before and the heritage we will leave for those who follow. Honor: Developing our personal character through leadership, due diligence, and self-reflection, doing what is right no matter the cost and protecting the dignity of those we serve.

Aww…☺️

Sometimes the Smallest Moments Make the Biggest Impact!

Being a School Resource Deputy is about so much more than school safety. It’s about building relationships, earning trust, and making a difference in the lives of our students, one smile, one high-five, and one helping hand at a time!

Deputy Moss, who serves at Mason County Eastern (MCE), reminds us that sometimes the most important part of wearing the badge isn’t enforcing the law—it’s being someone a child can look up to, trust, and count on.

This photo captures what community policing is all about. A helping hand, a little encouragement, and a moment that might seem small to us but can mean the world to a child.

Thank you, Deputy Moss, for showing our youngest community members that behind every badge is a person who cares.
