Muskegon County, Michigan
Muskegon County Convention & Visitors Bureau Winter, spring, summer or fall, it’s always time to come out and play along the Muskegon coastline. Just like Lake Michigan’s sparkling waters, the fun rolls in all along the Muskegon coastline. With more than 11,400 acres of inland lakes, almost 400 miles of rivers and 27 miles of Lake Michigan waterfront, the coastline is a water lover’s dream come true. Eleven dune-filled public parks provide access to the big lake, including Muskegon’s Pere Marquette Beach. Pere Marquette's huge, sandy beach is complemented by handicap-accessible paths, a shaded picnic area, beach volleyball and basketball courts. The coastline is especially popular with boaters. Several rivers and creeks, especially the White River and Muskegon River, are popular with kayakers, canoeists, rafters and anglers. White Lake, Bear Lake, Mona Lake and Muskegon Lake are favorite ports of call, offering access to and refuge from Lake Michigan. Tucked inland are some 30 more lakes. The area's numerous public and private marinas offer a range of services and provide thousands of boat slips. The Muskegon coastline is home to some of the state's finest parks and natural areas and numerous county, township and city parks feature campgrounds, picnicking, biking trails, skateboard park, golf courses, hiking, nature watching, hunting, horseback riding, playgrounds and fields and courts for just about every sport.
