    Amazing location!

    We love to travel to Michigan and we found a small dog-friendly beach there which was super fun. There are also many trails to hike!

    Dogs Allowed On Beach!!

    Dogs are allowed on the first beach just past the formal entrance on the left. if you stop at the information area before the formal entrance they have a map with a paw print. Beach is sandy and close to restrooms. Wonderful!

    Beautiful And There Is A Dog Beach

    We walked the trails with our dogs and had a great time. Most of the beach says no dogs - but we asked the ranger and found a small dog friendly area between the big bathhouse and the river.

    Trails!

    Dogs are not allowed to go on the beach. Campground is pup accessible and also can go on trails. Shops close by and many are pup accessible.

    Excellent walking trails

    Miles of walking and biking trails in beautiful wooded areas, some near lakes and streams. A pleasure to walk for both dogs and people. We were even able to take the dog canoeing with us.
