Apparently a lot of people make reservations a year ahead of time at least at some of the nicer places. We found a nice little B&B walking distance to the ramp so there are still accommodations left I just wouldn't wait a whole lot longer especially if anyone is looking to do a group. Its our first time going up there even though we only live a few hours away. I also found Dewitt Marina has slips available for $50 plus they have their own ramp.

Good info thanks for the insight!! If I happen to be up there the same weekend you're there maybe we'll get together somewhere

From Elk Lake you can go down into Lake Skegemog then up the Torch River into Torch Lake. Yes those all connect. Unfortunately you cannot get into Lake Michigan from Elk Lake. Your oh so close but there is a dam in the way. I can't speak to the noise laws....

By chance have you used the ramp at Alden? We are staying at a B&B right next to it and were planning to put in there. After visiting it this past week I dont think our truck and trailer could ever make the turn around. Do people just back down to it from the street?

Anyone know about any noise laws?
