## Frequently Asked Questions — Gull Lake

### How big is Gull Lake and how clear is the water?

Gull Lake is the marquee inland lake in Southwest Michigan: 2,030 acres, 110 feet at its deepest, with roughly 18.5 miles of fully-developed shoreline. The water is famously clear — local scuba divers visit Gull for submerged features including a phone booth, a motorcycle, an ice shanty, and railroad tracks. Water clarity improved markedly after the 1980s sewer build-out and subsequent zebra mussel filtration.

### Where is the public boat launch on Gull Lake?

The DNR-operated Prairieville Township public launch is at 10732 Center Street, Plainwell. Concrete ramp, paved lot with about 25 trailer spots, open 6am to 11pm.

### What are the boating rules on Gull Lake?

All-sports lake. Standard Michigan 100-foot slow-no-wake buffer from shore, docks, and swimmers. No water skiing from one hour after sunset to one hour before sunrise. Personal watercraft (PWC) towing is prohibited sunset to 8am. Section-specific weekend slow-no-wake hours apply in Ross Township — check the posted signs at the public launch.

### What fish are in Gull Lake?

Smallmouth bass and largemouth bass — Gull is a tournament destination for both. Walleye, northern pike, bluegill, yellow perch. Notably for an inland southern Michigan lake, the depth supports stocked lake trout and rainbow trout — a cold-water fishery you wouldn't expect this far south.

### What marinas and yacht clubs operate on Gull Lake?

Gull Lake Marine in Richland is the major operator — 110+ years in business, sales, service, slips, a gas dock, pontoon and tritoon rentals, and water-sports gear. The Gull Lake Yacht Club (established 1926) runs sailboat racing. The private Gull Lake Country Club includes golf, a beach, slips, and yacht-club access.

### What's on the east shore of Gull Lake?

MSU's W.K. Kellogg Biological Station and Bird Sanctuary sit on the east shore. The sanctuary surrounds Wintergreen Lake (40 acres) — a separate small body that's a registered Audubon site. Public visiting hours are posted.

### How do I get on the Gull Lake weekly fuel delivery route?

Text GULL to (877) 257-FUEL. Reply Y to confirm SMS delivery alerts and we add you to Gull Lake's weekly route. No credit card required to join — pay only when you actually order fuel. You can also sign up online at docksidefuelservices.com if you prefer.

### What kind of fuel do you deliver to Gull Lake?

REC-90 ethanol-free marine gasoline — the recommended fuel for boats, jet skis, pontoons, side-by-sides, generators, and most outdoor power equipment. The lack of ethanol prevents phase separation in tanks that sit unused for stretches, which protects engines on lakeside properties that don't see daily use.

### How many gallons can be delivered to Gull Lake in one day?

Up to 780 gallons per route (700-gallon truck plus 80-gallon Fuel Mule). Reservations are first-reserve, first-fill — once Gull Lake's weekly route fills up, additional requests join a FIFO waitlist and auto-promote when a reservation cancels.

### Is there a delivery minimum on Gull Lake?

No minimum gallons — the trip fee ($30 dockside or $15 curbside) is the same whether we fill 5 gallons or 100. Most customers order 20-50 gallons per trip. The flat trip fee covers the cost of bringing the truck to your lake; per-gallon pricing is the current REC-90 market rate plus $1.49/gal.
