The Round Pond anchorage At Charlevoix was very enjoyable!

Passing boats didn't make wakes, the beautiful residential properties, boat houses, adjacent marina and docks added to a wonderful stay.

Whether there's no dockage available, as in our case, or you prefer anchoring, Round Pond in Charlevoix is a place to go.

We slept well and the holding was good. Be prepared to anchor in 40' of water.

I couldn't find info regarding a dinghy dock so shore access was unknown for our stay.

All said, we look forward to anchoring at Round Pond in the future.
