Title: Orchard Lake MDNR Launch
Post by: Skulley on November 17, 2012, 09:51:28 AM
I usually pass by the Orchard Lake launch on the way home from work.  I decided to go that way home the other day and saw that they have made pretty good progress in its new redesign.  They have it all paved now and probably one of the only things left to do there is paint lines for parking and how the traffic will move there.  It will be a great improvement on how traffic will move in and out of one of the most busiest launches in the area.  It will probably get even more busy.

I saw it last sunday, coming home from Sylvan lk. (20-30 mph winds). (i'm done). Yes the parking lot looks nice, but it wasn't bad to begin with in my opinion. Maybe they could open the restroom a little earlier next year....

It may get a lot more tournys next summer since Cass is supposed to be closed all summer.  The ranger said they are doing a major rework next year.

I've heard at Cass there moving the ramp and the parking will be much improved for the rigs that are larger then a car with a row boat.

Better parking at Cass Lake would be real nice. Closed ramp all summer, not so nice...
