Waterfront

Ephraim’s biggest asset is its waterfront view. With beautiful sunny days giving way to dramatic sunsets, the water offers a perfect backdrop for a day spent in the Village.

1.) If you follow Hwy. 42 (Water Street) north through the Village, your first stop is the Ephraim Public Beach. Here you can find public restrooms, plenty of parking and lots of sand.

2.) Next we come to the newly renovated Firehouse Marina. The facility not only provides showers and restrooms, but there are also seasonal slips, moorings and transient slips available for rental. A public launch ramp and parking are provided.

3.) To the north is Monument Park.

4.) Follow the shoreline to South Shore Pier. Here you will find an assortment of water sports and activities to choose from.

5.) Just a couple steps north is the Village Hall Park.  It features an observation deck overlooking the water, a prime sunset viewing location.

6.) Further north, another wonderful spot to take in the sunset is the Ephraim Visitor Information Center. Plenty of information about our Village and the surrounding areas is available here. Public restrooms.

7.) Next door, the Ephraim Yacht Club is another local landmark. The EYC has been in Ephraim for over 100 years and is open to the public. The Ephraim Regatta, hosted by the EYC, is the oldest regatta on the Great Lakes, having been held here every year since 1906.  Stop by to check out the updated pier.

8.) Last, we reach historic Anderson Dock.  The pier was a center of commerce in Ephraim for over a hundred years.  Now it houses the Hardy Gallery and offers a nice place for fishermen to drop a line.
