About This Access Site
The Eastport boat ramp is a developed DNR access site located at the north end of Torch Lake in Antrim County, between M-88 and US-131. This is a designated trailhead for the Chain of Lakes Water Trail, making it an excellent starting point for paddlers and boaters exploring the area. The facility includes a paved boat launch, trailer parking, and restroom facilities.

Torch Lake is a popular destination for kayakers and canoeists seeking scenic paddling opportunities in northwest Michigan. The Eastport ramp provides convenient access to the main lake and connects to the broader Chain of Lakes water trail system. The developed infrastructure makes this site suitable for both day trips and longer paddling adventures, with adequate parking for vehicles and trailers.
