Elk Rapids is a small, charming town located on Grand Traverse Bay. East Grand Traverse Bay is located to the west with Elk Lake to the east and Bass Lake to the north. There is plenty of water here for those that enjoy fishing and boating. The community consists of one square mile, but there are charming bed and breakfasts, vacation rentals and other types of lodging here. We also have one fishing charter listed that uses this port.
