Rode this trail in May, 2021 and found it to be beautiful. Started near Whitehall road and went north. Trail is smooth and very scenic.
We were excited to try this trail, and enjoy the views of both Lake Michigan & Lake Muskegon. We started from Beachwood Park, and took the Boardwalk Loop to connect to the trail. We were only a few miles in before discovering the trail was closed. There were no suggested detours, and heading north, we could find no way back to the trail. On the way back we rode the boardwalk - scenic , but very short ride.
We rode 5 miles eastbound from Bloomingdales and the trail was rideable but in need of maintenance. The restroom at the Bloomingdales trailhead was the worst I have seen in. Any Steve we have ridden in. The next day we rode west from Grand Junction to South Haven. Rideable yes but we could not take our eyes off the trail path because of the vary soft and deep limestone powder in many areas. There were at least 2 spots that looked like someone took Nasty
Previous reviewer had it pretty accurate for the Lowell to Belding stretch. Paved in the cities, leads to hard-pack (like crushed gravel/old asphalt but highly compressed) with some dirt mixed in. Mtb bikes, hybrids and gravel bikes will not have any problems here; I rode an average 15MPH from 4 Mile (Lowell side) up to north of Belding and back on a gravel bike, very few soft spots and they were marked for repair. And I'm a larger guy, but no worries about tires. Land around the trails was beautiful!
S Haven to Van Buren SP is paved and easy. The 14 mile spur to Hartford is not. Double track, sandy, probably muddy if it has rained. A nice adventure. Even on a nice May Saturday only saw 3 people. Fun if you are up to it. If you are expecting the Kal Haven trail you won’t like it.
This is one of the area’s earliest rail to trail conversion. It is used as a snowmobile trail in the winter. The age and winter use have taken a toll on the surface, especially at the bridges. Ride is straight and flat, mostly through open farm land. Nicest feature is bridge east of Ravens
There is a small section that is damaged, but easy detouring is available and this small problem should not present any real reason to avoid the trail.
In the comments from July of 2020 someone was looking for the Spoonville trail.
They were just a little early, it was completed in the fall of 2020.
Well marked from the East end of the Northbank trail, Spoonville crosses I-96 on a protected lane on the 112th Ave bridge, then takes a scenic trip along a ravine and around a golf course.
Spoonville trail includes the mile long crossing of the Grand River on the M-231 bridge.
With the new trail completed in late 2020, North Bank and Spoonville are 12.5 miles from the mouth of Spring Lake to the south side of the river at M-231.
The connection between the Spoonville Trail and North Bank trail is complete.
There is now continuous path from Conner Bayou county park to Grand Haven's Harbor Island.
There are 2 trail head parking lots on the Spoonville trail (just north and south of the M-231 bridge, plus there is another on the North bank trail.
We started south of the M-231 bridge. The bridge is a mile long with great views of the river and wetlands. Leaving the bridge you loop back and cross under M-231 and follow 120th ave to Leonard, passing the trail head lot on 120th.
Newly completed in 2020 the trail follows Leonard east for a short stretch and turns into Terra Verde golf club. Cross the club drive and follow around the edge of the course with golfers on one side and wetlands ravine on the other. This part of the trail is outstanding with rock retaining walls and several bridges.
Crossing the last bridge in the ravine you come up along I-96, and use a protected lane of the 112th ave bridge to cross.
Following the trail the Spoonville trail ends and the Northbank trail heads left around the fire station.
Cross back under I-96 along the westbound ramp form M-231 to I-96, and follow the North Bank Trail to downtown Spring Lake. Continue under M-104 along the water and the trail leads up on the M-104 bridge over the mouth of Spring Lake and then over the Grand river to Harbor Island on the bascule bridge.
South of M-231 to the mouth of Spring Lake is 12.5 miles. Plans are in progress to complete a couple of new miles on the the south side of the river to complete the loop downtown Grand Haven back to the M-231.
This is a great trail to ride with lots of variation. Hopefully that last couple of miles will be completed soon.
I rode the entirety of the trail today - which at 93 miles was a plenty. The scenery is beautiful, plenty of black squirrels (don’t have those in my neck of the woods), rabbits, and best of all - peace and quiet. Plenty of amenities along the way and you end at the lake - which is beautiful!
