Deepwater Point Natural Area is protected by Acme Township and the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy. It is a 17-acre forested area with beach area and wetlands. It provides beautiful views of East Grand Traverse Bay. There is just under a mile of hiking in the woods following two loops and several connecting trails. There are also short use trails to various places on the beachfront. It surely must be a hidden treasure amongst locals who can easily access this gem of nature. I was exploring it during an afternoon break during a conference I was attending the Traverse City/Acme area at the Grand Traverse Resort. This was less than a mile from the Resort and made for quick and easy access to a nice hike. I loved getting pictures of the East Bay which proved so very scenic.
