MARQUETTE, Mich. (WZMQ) – According to Marquette’s Parks and Recreation division, Cinder Pond Marina has sustained significant ice and wind damage as a result of multiple storms this winter.
More recently, the blizzard that occurred on March 15 and 16 damaged piers 2 & 3, which will require extensive repairs. City staff are working with the dock manufacturer to assess the docks and plan repairs for the 2026 season. Due to this damage, lingering ice pack, and uncertainty regarding the weather, the season may be delayed.
Slip holders will still need to renew their slips before the April 15 deadline. If the season is delayed, slip holders will be refunded for the duration of the closure, following the same policy as enforced in previous years.
