Boating, Canoeing and Fishing: Water is very abundant. The Inland water ways are a short drive away with several boat launches to accommodate you. With the Lake Michigan Bay at Petoskey or Harbor Springs are only 4 miles away. The beaches are beautiful and Harbor Springs even has a dog friendly beach on Zoll St. This is surely a water wonderland for boating , jet skiing, water skiing, tubing and fishing. If canoing is your style, the Sturgeon, Maple, Indian or Crooked rivers all await you. Liveries are available for renting. Crooked, Round, Pickeral, Burt, Larks, Paradise (Carp), Mullet or Black Lakes are all close for your pleasure. A favorite trip is to rent a Pontoon on Crooked and go up the inland waterway up Crooked Lake, River, Burt Lake to Indian River and if adventuresome make it to Mullet Lake. This is an all day affair and is very scenic and enjoyable for the family. Boat rental is available on Crooked Lake. I also recommend Sturgeon Bay as a beautiful beach get away located north on M119.
