Boat Ramp

Bluegill Boat Launch provides public access to C. S. Mott Lake via a paved boat ramp managed by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, with convenient parking and ADA-accessible facilities. The site features a 2.

5-mile paved, ADA-compliant trail along the shoreline, kayak rentals, and a day-use pavilion, making it ideal for both boaters and paddlers.

Note that a no-wake speed limit is enforced on Mott Lake, and seasonal boat launch passes are required (April–September operating season).
