Boat Ramp
This public boat launch at Oxbow Park provides access to Hardy Dam Pond (a 6-mile section of the Muskegon River) and is managed by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.
The ramp is located between two rustic campgrounds at Newaygo State Park and offers parking at the boating access site, with limited mooring spots available for registered campers.
