Medium-sized marina with multiple parallel docks along a lake shoreline, surrounded by wooded areas and several buildings, featuring a central unpaved parking area with no visible vehicles.
Gerrish Township Community Park Marina is situated on the southwest end of Higgins Lake, providing docking, boat launch, picnic area, playground and much more. The marina offers information on seasonal slips, transient docking, and current pricing and agreements.
Marinas typically need to separate slip holder parking from day-visitor parking, trailer areas, launch ramps, and secure dock access points. Modern facilities use barrier gate systems to enforce these zones automatically — allowing permitted vehicles through via transponder or keycard while logging all access events.
