We try to make it up to Torch, GTB/Marrion/Power Island, Elk, etc, with my boat a few times each year. Most anywhere up there is beautiful. We usually rent a condo somewhere around Shanty Creek/Schuss Mountian area and haul the boat to where ever we want to go for the day.
Also enjoy visiting Hawk's Eye Golf Resort for lunch (near Belaire)---they have a nice deck to sit on at the club house and take in all the scenery.

WOW, Nice hearing from all the northern Michigan boaters!
We put in on Torch at Torch Lake Village at the day park, located on the west side of the lake between Eastport and Elk Rapids closer to Eastport just off 31, deep launch with a pier, you have to pay 5 bucks for the use of the launch but its well worth it!
Were going to try to force the good weather again this year and be out on the boat for memorial day weekend, even if its snowing!!!! IT WAS SNOWING LAST WEEKEND!!

Laszlo where's you're place? We are also on the Manistee in Kalkaska (actually Fife Lake, but no one knows where that is) Little road called Larson just north of Taffle Town on 66.
