If you want to be seen this is the place to go in the summer. Annoying private beaches box it in. Not much fun if you are older than 26.no way to launch a paddleboard or a kayak. Hard to park.

A great place to spent the day. Bring everything you need cause no re-entry. It is $20 a car for non St Clair County residents and $5 if you live in St Clair County. They have picnic tables, BBQ spots a playground and shaded areas. Go early to get the best spot as it fills up fast!

A nice long beach beside Lake Huron to walk down and look for sea glass. During the warm months they have nice restrooms and showers but these are closed at the end of October.

This is a very nice Park. They keep updating with nice features. They have a walkway all the way down to the water. There is a brand new splash pad,(couple years old, only half of it is working).

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

hey guys does anyone know how long the shore line is and if you can swim in the non designated areas

Hajer Abada | Feb 3, 2019
ecodiesel forever | Feb 4, 2019

I would say the shore is approximately 300 yards long. I would imagine you can swim past the boundaries because many people anchor their boats outside the swimming area and swim from their boats.
