Finding the site can be a little tricky. Use the map as a rough guide to find the spot on the lake. Once there, traverse the bay in a zig-zag pattern until you see a white uderwater bouy (Tropicana OJ Jug that I put there in 2005). Drop anchor to the North a safe distance away as to not interfere with the car bodies or any of the marine life that live there. The site consists of two car bodies that were dragged out on the Ice and sunk with the spring thaw sometime in the 50s. The car that the bouy is tied to is an upside-down 1951 Studabaker Land Cruiser. The other car (located 10 feet away to the SouthEast) is an upside-down 1940s Pickup. Lots of marine life calls this site home. Mostly Rockbass and Smallmouth Bass. Since there is no public access close to the dive site, the best way to get there is to launch a boat in either Elk Rapids or Kewadin.
