Ferrysburg, MI

Tucked along the shores of Lake Michigan where the Grand River meets Spring Lake, Ferrysburg is a relaxed, friendly community of around 3,000 residents. Situated right across the river from Grand Haven, it gives you a quiet neighborhood setting surrounded by water on three sides. With easy connections along U.S. 31 and M-104, getting around the region is simple, making it an appealing home base for anyone who loves the lakeshore.

Local students attend the well-regarded Grand Haven Area Public Schools, and outdoor recreation is a major draw for newcomers. You can spend weekends hiking the wooded trails at Kitchel-Lindquist Dunes Preserve, heading to the beach from Coast Guard Park, or hopping on the paved regional bike paths. Everyday shopping, dining, and community events are right across the bridge in Grand Haven, while larger employment centers, hospitals, and cultural attractions in Muskegon, Holland, and Grand Rapids are all an easy drive down the highway.
