Edward C. Grace Memorial Harbor
Nestled between two pristine beaches in Elk Rapids, Michigan sits the
pride of the Great Lakes ­ the Edward C. Grace Memorial Harbor. Since
the 1970s, the harbormasters have worked hard to constantly improve the
facilities while steadfastly maintaining the sterling reputation of the staff.
Their efforts have made Grace Memorial Harbor a hub for adventure and
leisure in northern Michigan.
With seasonal and transient slips available, Grace Memorial
Harbor has become a sought after spot for boaters. The top-
notch facilities and well-trained staff greet visitors when they
arrive, and easy access to the village lets them get out and
explore. From Grace Memorial Harbor, everything in Elk Rapids
is within walking distance ­ great beaches, athletic courts,
friendly shops, and fantastic food.
For those guests needing a lift, the harbor offers a complimentary
shuttle to any business in the village, including the local golf
courses. If boaters want to experience the Chain of Lake, the
harbor staff can help set up pontoon boat rentals for guests to
spend a day on Torch or Elk lakes.
Boaters choose Grace Memorial Harbor because Elk Rapids
provides an escape from their everyday lives. People visiting from
Chicago and Detroit don't want the hustle and crowds of larger
northern Michigan cities. In Elk Rapids, boaters get the charm
and nostalgia of small town life.
"We strive to provide the cleanest facilities, professional staff, and the
highest level of customer service," said Eric Crissman, the village's
harbormaster. "I invite boaters to visit us and experience what our
community and harbor have to offer."
