About Pentwater Lake and Harbor
The Longbridge Road Causeway, east of Pentwater, is a convenient location from which to scope the marshes of the Pentwater River and the eastern end of Pentwater Lake. There are wide shoulders on either side of the causeway at which to park. There are also wooden decks next to the bridge that are good for setting up a scope, while remaining well off of the road. Significant numbers of migrant ducks rest here during spring migration from March - May. Typical species found here include American Wigeon, Blue-winged Teal, Green-winged Teal, Northern Shoveler, and Northern Pintail. Other unique breeding birds found here include Marsh Wrens and Sora.
