"Sunset Beach" Travel Trailer on 435’ of Lake Michigan shoreline next to the boat launch and marina at Fairport Fishery (Peterson Brothers Fishery).
This spectacular waterfront location is located in the scenic fishing village of Fairport, Michigan, roughly 5 miles South of Fayette State Park. The travel trailer is located on a vacant lakefront lot (right between our home and Fairport Fishery, which has a boat launch and fish processing facility). It is THE prime launch spot for King Salmon fishing. Fairport is the outdoor enthusiasts' paradise!

Lake Michigan is great for swimming, fishing, and boating during Summer. Our Fall colors are spectacular!
Other things to note
There are multiple islands to boat or kayak around. If you don’t have a boat, you can also fish from shore or from multiple docks. You can sit on the beach and watch the commercial fishing boats, bald eagles, swans, pelicans, geese, and a variety of ducks. The beach is somewhat rocky so water shoes are recommended. The Lake Michigan water is crystal clear and great for snorkeling or catching crayfish. Other wildlife commonly seen in Fairport include whitetail deer, rabbits, fox, and turkeys. Stargazing is popular here and you may even see the Northern Lights! Activities in Fairport include: fishing, biking, swimming, boating, kayaking, atv riding, and hiking. There are several parks within an hour’s drive, including the famous Kich-iti-kipi (Big Springs). Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, on Lake Superior in Munising, is 68 miles from Fairport.
