A Little Bit About Us:

  • 70 Years of Boating Heritage
  • In 1946 Clyde E. Coller opened Jerry's Fishing Resort on Tawas Point. In actuality Jerry's Marina got its name from an unrecorded surveyors plat documented in the early 1900s. In 2001 the Hill Brothers purchased Jerry’s with the intention of keeping the tradition Jerry’s has generated for the past 70 years. Jerry’s continues to provide a warm and friendly environment for all of its customers and visitors alike.

There have been many changes to Jerry's Marina over the past 70 years. Initially, Jerry's catered to the fisherman going after the famous Tawas Bay perch, with catches of as many as 200 per day! Back then we maintained a tackle shop, cottages, and numerous wooden fishing rowboats to service their needs. Today, we operate as a full service marina with over 200 boat slips, complete repair and service department, parts and accessories. We sell new and used boat and motor sales and offer rentals as well. In addition to these services we boast a convenience store along with fully renovated cottages and executive homes provided under Timberlane Resorts.

We are located on Tawas Point between Lake Huron and Tawas Bay. You can enjoy the calm of the bay with easy access to Lake Huron or relax on your boat enjoying the beautiful sunsets over Tawas Bay.

Important: All pontoon rentals require a $500 dollar security deposit upon arrival. Must be ages 18+ for rental and driver, and valid boaters safety certificate must be presented.
