at Victory Township Park  Hamlin Marsh This park is a small gem located on the north end of Hamlin Lake. You can picnic, hike, play ball, do some fishing or boating in a quiet, off the beaten track location. If the township would do a little work here the park would offer a wonderful experience. As it is, you need to be a little more prepared with your own amenities, but the location is great. Boat Launch- cement ramp with a dock and adequate parking Fishing- Hamlin Lake - black crappie, bluegill, brook trout, channel catfish, largemouth bass, muskellunge, northern pike, rock bass, smallmouth bass, sunfish, walleye, yellow perch (list from lake-link.com) Victory Park Trails The description begins at the west side of the picnic pavillion. Enter the woods at the base of the hill, but slightly above the water line. You will pass the now-closed toilet building. The trail is an old wood road. It continues around the base of the hill past the shoreline of Hamlin Lake and then turns south keeping swampy land near the seasonal creek on the right, and the hill on the left. You will note two less-used side trails angling to the left up valleys. Both of these lead to the top of the bluff and the road to the upper park. If you continue straight on the main trail you will reach Victory Park Road near its final bend to the north.

Travel west on Fountain Road from US 31 (6.5 miles north of US 10 at Scottville), for 5 miles. The paved road becomes Angling Road, veering southwest. However, you can continue straight (around a slight jog for traffic safety) on Fountain Road, now dirt. Do this, and take the first right on Victory Park Road. This road goes north for just under one mile, then jogs left. Shortly, there is a road to the right marked to Sunset Bluff Resort, however, continue straight and the road will dead end at the park.
