Haserot Beach

Outdoor Recreation · Traverse City, MI

Tucked away on the shores of Grand Traverse Bay, Haserot Park Boat Launch gives you that perfect small-town launch experience without the crowds of the main marinas. The concrete ramp handles everything from kayaks to decent-sized fishing boats, and there's plenty of parking even on busy summer weekends. What I love most is how families gather here – kids splashing in the shallow water while parents prep their gear. The bay opens up beautifully once you're out there, with those classic Northern Michigan views stretching toward the Old Mission Peninsula.
