A small parking lot is the only thing that holds this beach back from being the #1 beach in the Silver Lake area. This huge beach changes each year due to the Silver Creek Channel flowing out to Lake Michigan. The warm-water channel satisfies the younger swimmers while the Big Lake attracts the older, adventurous folks. Beach walkers will also like the easy access to Little Sable Pt. Lighthouse, just a short walk down the beach. Located off Silver Lake Road 1/4 mile north of the Lighthouse.

The beautiful red brick lighthouse built in the late 1870's is a must see. Large parking area and restroom facilities are available. The walk out to the beach involves some dune crossing and climbing. Located 1/2 mile south of Golden Township Park.
