It is also a wonderful spot to come and just enjoy the beautiful view of the lake and all the surrounding areas. You can see Anchor Bay you can see Mac and Rays you can see all the way over to Harsens Island on a clear day. In the wintertime the ice fisherman love the spots on the bay because they can catch a multitude of fish from perch to walleye I've even heard it said a muskie or two have been caught right in these Waters. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources has put a lot of time energy and money into this spot it's a shame more people don't come out and truly enjoy the peace of mind you get just by looking out into the vast view of Anchor Bay. If you're ever in the area make sure you stop by I think you'll enjoy it.

I have been turned away in the past if not there before noon on a Saturday or Sunday. Hopefully this is now been alleviated or less frequent. Restrooms available for men and for women. There's a Porta John in the winter months to accommodate ice fishermen. I like this launch better than the one at the end of S. River Rd, which seems to be more seaweed that flows down from the Clinton River. This site is included in the recreation pass that can be purchased when renewing your license plate for a very reasonable fee. I launch a 26 foot boat with plenty of room in length and draft.

Boats and jet skis cost $10, effective August 2020 kayaks are now $5. Pedestrians or bikers without a boat are free. There is one porta potty in the parking lot. This is considered a US international border so the gate locks at 10 PM and there is a penalty if you are not out in time. Dogs are allowed in the fishing park and boat launch. Poop bags if you're lucky. There is a gate attendant to take your money and enforce rules. You are not Allowed to swim or wade here, nor would you want to because it is filthy. One mile south is the Edsel and Eleanor Ford house, bird island, and the grosse pointe woods park. This is the southernmost public boat launch until Detroit. It's kind of hard to find, drive east on 9 mile until you can't anymore. Drive between fishbones restaurant and the Mobil And keep going. If you feel like you are about to blow a tire from all the potholes, you are on the right track. I do not recommend kayaking in this area if there is northern wind above 5 miles an hour or southern wind above 10 mph. I also recommend getting off the water by 11 AM when the jet skis get out.

Well we got there early and once it became our start time, noone was there. I ended up calling them to make sure someone was coming, and I was able to get a hold of a staff member who said they would be there in a couple of minutes. Well that turned into about 15 minutes later. Once the staff member came, they got the kayak on the water, showed us how to get in and gave us life jackets. The actually kayaking was nice and the weather was good that day. Basically two ways you can kayak through a nature area or by some huge lake houses. Both are obviously beautiful choices. So overall, it was a decent adventure but just did not like the fact they were late in getting things started.

You will have to take a walk to get to where you want to be. There's a break wall on each side and finally when you walk about a mile down you reach the end of the pier. There is always a variety of people fishing. I have caught my fair share of his share with my little guy anywhere from panfish to bass that could probably hold a record. This is kind of a secret gem but not too many people know about because it's kind of tucked away. It's great to pack a picnic grab your fishing pole bring your kids and enjoy a warm day and Summer by the water.
