Quick Facts

Fish-Cleaning Station

The ADA-accessible fish-cleaning station is open 24 hours, seasonally May 31st - Oct. 20. The well-lit station is cleaned and sanitized daily. In a typical year, the station collects 3,000 gallons of fish remains and uses 130,000 gallons of rinse water.
A park entry pass is required. There is a self-pay station at the fish cleaning station.

There are instructions for safe use and clean-up posted at the station. Large chinook heads can sometimes clog in the grinder. Do not reach into the grinder chute - it is very dangerous. For maintenance, 7 days / week until 3:30 call 231-326-4831 or after 3:30 call 231-326-4700 x 5029.
