Burton's Landing
About
Burton's Landing is a state-managed boat launch in Michigan, about 3 miles from the town of Grayling. It's run by the State of Michigan and sits right beside Burton's Landing State Forest Campground, so launching and camping can share a single trip. Summer is the most comfortable time to get on the water. Typical July highs reach about 80°F with lows near 55°F, based on averages from the nearby Grayling weather station, and June and August are only slightly cooler. Beyond the adjoining campground, Kneff Lake Campground is under 4 miles away, as is the Au Sable River. The Au Sable River Trail and Hartwick Pines State Park Campground are both within about 6 miles.
