Betsie Bay Marina
Who we are
Welcome to Betsie Bay Marina, where family-friendly charm meets the natural beauty of Northern Michigan. Just a short boat ride from the premier salmon and steelhead fishing of Lake Michigan, our marina is your gateway to adventure and relaxation.
Nestled at the foot of the Elberta Bluffs and the head of the Betsie Valley Biking Trail, our well-equipped slips offer more than just a place to dock—they provide a home base surrounded by some of the region’s most breathtaking landscapes. Less than a mile from a secluded beach and just steps from Elberta Waterfront Park, you can explore local history, enjoy a play at the scenic picnic areas, or simply unwind.
For those who crave a touch of town life, the charming village of Frankfort is just five minutes away, offering a delightful mix of shopping and dining options. And if you’re in the mood for a day trip, the possibilities are endless—whether by car or by boat, there’s always something new to discover.
Of course, if doing nothing at all is on your agenda, our marina is the perfect place for that too. Relax, soak in the views, and let the peaceful ambiance of Betsie Bay Marina wash over you.
