Really nice, beautiful, sandy beach! You do have to pay $8 for parking, state park passes do not work. There is also a big set of stairs you have to take, so be prepared for a workout.

This is a great, free-to-the-public beach on Lake Michigan with fantastic views and nice walking trails. Road to Perdition, my favorite movie of all time, was filmed here so it was excellent to have walked the same grounds that Tom Hanks and Jude Law walked over 20 years ago. Outstanding experience.

Very well kept nice little park. They have some picnic table areas, public restrooms, and some walking trails. There's also some stairs I go up to a overlook with a walking trail that goes along the lake and then down to the lake. Great views.

A stairway to amazing views & beach access for a few locations. Parking is 8.00 for the day, machine to pay with cash or card. The County park pass is Not the same as the state park sticker, you buy with your license. It is also good at Kirk park, North beach, & Tunnel park. Went on a 90°Summer day, not terribly busy for a Sunday. There are stairs to get to the beach.

Olive Shores has no showers or foot wash area, but they do have a drinking fountain and a water bottle filling station. (Other response probably mistook the water station as a foot wash)
I'm not aware of any laws opposing fishing here, but from the years I've been swimming here, I've never seen any fish.
Kirk is the only Ottawa co lake mi park with a dog beach. I believe if you have them leached you could go to the beach but all I'd call the parks office to find out the details.
No, they are not. Just a few miles north, at Kirk Park, there is an off-leash dog beach.
