Hartshorn Municipal Marina
Muskegon's city-owned marina on Muskegon Lake, the only publicly owned marina on the lake according to the city.
Hartshorn Marina is the City of Muskegon’s marina on Muskegon Lake, set on a little over ten acres at Division Street and Western Avenue in the Nims neighborhood. The city describes it as the only publicly owned marina on the lake.
The marina mixes fixed and floating docks with a field of moorings, and the city lists both seasonal and transient moorings. Reservations are handled by the marina itself rather than the state system, so boaters planning a stop should check the marina’s own booking information before arriving.
Slips, fuel and services
Reservations
The Michigan DNR harbor map lists Hartshorn as a harbor that takes reservations outside the state system and points boaters to the marina's own website.
Services
The city lists power and water hookups, showers, restrooms, ice sales, picnic tables and grills, and two launch ramps.
Anything not listed here is unverified. Contact the harbor before arriving. Not for navigation: use current NOAA charts and the NWS marine forecast.
