Musical Fountain

Grand Haven' Musical Fountain is one of the largest of it's kind. It is 250 feet long and 100 feet wide. Although it is only a foot deep, it contains about 40,000 gallons of water. During the summer months, they put on quite a sound and light show as the fountain is programmed to put on some spectacular sound and light shows. The Musical Fountain is situated across the Grand River Channel from it primary viewing site at Waterfront Stadium, carefully aligned with the center of the central business district - Washington Street. Located about one-third of the distance up the sand dune known as Dewey Hill, the fountain site is nearly the size of a football field as seen from the air. When the fountain is not in operation it’s inconspicuous and it presents as a wildlife area across the river to the casual viewer.
