Saginaw River Mouth Boating Access Site

We’d like to remind our boaters that the Saginaw River Mouth BAS will be closed starting May 1st, 2023 for about 2 weeks for the final upgrades. During the closure of our site, we encourage you to use one of the other local boat sites listed below.

Bangor Township launch near Edson Navy Ship

806 Morton St, Bay City Mi 48706

Golson Boat Launch

1598 N Johnson St. Bay City Mi 48708

We’ve also learned that on April 24th, 2023 a section of Patterson Rd will be closed for about month from Wheeler Road north to the Dow Deer Viewing Area.

To access our site, you’ll need to take Bangor Rd north from Wheeler about 1 mile to Zimmer Rd, turning right. This will bring you to the intersection near the Party Dock on Shady Shore leading to the boat site.
