About Elam Bend Conservation Area

This area is a mixture of forest, old field, and cropland habitat. The area features a boat ramp with access to the Grand River, a firearms shooting range, primitive camping, and a disabled accessible privy.

The Conservation Department initially purchased property for Elam Bend Conservation Area in 1979 in order to provide a river-oriented, multiple-use area on an unchannelized portion of the upper Grand River. Subsequent additions to the area have increased its size to 1,483 acres.

In addition to providing river access and river-oriented recreation, the area is managed for both game and non-game species of upland and forest wildlife. From Elam Bend Conservation Area web site
