I have taken mine in Higgings numerous times. Both west launch and SS park work. I prefer west DNR launch.

Yes, there is usually room within Luhr's Landing Marina for parking, although it just depends on how congested it is. Probably best to get there by 10am or so to avoid some of the traffic there. I have found that you can usually find a parking spot there with your trailer.
