Interactive Aerial Maps
Interactive aerial maps allow users to view boundary lines, trails, nearby streets, park facilities and natural features by zooming in or out and navigating using the mapping tools provided. Information and links found with the maps also provide information about each park. You may begin with the Interactive Aerial Map of Ottawa County or go to Select-A-Park and select a specific park where you will find a link for the Interactive Aerial Map of that park. Parks staff, along with Ottawa County’s Geographic Information Systems staff, plan to add new features to the interactive aerial mapping of parks in the future. Interactive Mapping requires use of Internet Explorer.

Grand Lady Riverboat Cruise
About 130 people enjoyed a spring day on the Grand River aboard the Grand Lady Riverboat. The six hour trip departed from the boat dock in Grandville and ended in Fruitport. A number of resource people shared their knowledge along the way on a variety of topics including ecology, wildlife, history and water quality. Participants were also able to view a number of county, state and township properties along the route. An informative Program and Reference Guide provided maps and information along the river corridor. This trip was sponsored by Friends of Ottawa County Parks.
