Looking to do a Lake Huron trip in late August, my son lives in Canton so I'm thinking Port Huron area. I have no experience with marinas or Lake Huron, spent five years boating out of Grand Haven on the west side of the state. Any recommendations on a marina with a ramp and possible trailer/boat storage for about week? Marinas or fun places to visit within an hour of launch point? Will be brining our 32' Sunsation SSR.

Gorgeous area by boat but haven’t done it since I was a kid on pops boat in the 70’s but want to do it again.
Thinking similar.
Launch from Port Huron and head north.
Anxious to see your replies.

There's harbor of refuge marinas along the coast headed north. Most of the towns are quieter than those on Lake Michigan. We used to spend weekends in Port Sanilac and weeks at Harrisville.

Lexington is a fun port to stop at. It's about 20 miles north of Port Huron. Close walk to town to restaurants and bars. It's a nice marina. Kind of quiet during the week, but things to do. You could also boat down to lake St. Clair. It's not far and always a lot going on.
