Elk Rapids, MI at a Glance
For those that enjoy sun, beaches and boating, Elk Rapids is the place to go for
serenity and solitude. Bounded almost entirely by Elk
Lake, this village is situated on the east side of Grand
Traverse Bay, south of Bass
Lake and has Elk River running right through it. The coastal settlement covers
one square mile and dedicates its scenic areas to public use, including forests,
wetlands, fruit orchards and lakes. The Grace
Memorial Harbor is considered one of the best in Michigan
and has 220 slips for boat storage, offering easy access to downtown. Launch from
this port into the public lakes of Birch, Bass and Elk to catch numerous types
of fish, or gain entry into Lake
Michigan. Swimmers and sun seekers can take in Memorial
Park and Antrim
County Park, offering several hundred feet of shoreline. After a busy day
of being on the water, discover the unique shops, art galleries and nearby golf
courses of Elk Rapids.
