Question Charlevoix launch ramps - City or Ironton?

Like the title says, where are people launching? Charlevoix city ramp or down the road at Ironton?

Heard you have to live in Charlevoix to use the city ramp. Also heard the old guy there is an a$$.

Ironton looks a little small. So where do you launch?

The city launch by Irish is open 2 the public! U can buy a day pass or season pass! The water is deep & the docks R long!! Ironton is just another DNR launch!!! There R a couple older guys there at dif X's!! 1 does not say much, the other is a neighbor & friend & a retired cop that makes it happen at the docks, get'n boats in and out like nobody has 4 years!! Good 2 have him down there!! Good luck!!!

I've launched at the city docks a few times without any hassle. It's better than the DNR launch at Ironton, but the DNR launch isn't bad. I've gotten my 32' Sunsation in and out of there (Ironton) many times.
