Boat Ramp

This public boat launch at Oxbow Park provides access to Hardy Dam Pond (a 6-mile section of the Muskegon River), managed by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.

The ramp is located between two rustic campgrounds at Newaygo State Park and offers a dedicated parking area for boaters, with limited mooring spots available for registered campers.

Amenities include vault toilets, picnic facilities, and nearby kayak rentals (seasonal), making it a convenient access point for both motorized boating and paddling activities.
