Fisherman’s Island State Park is located along the coast of Lake Michigan, just 4 miles from downtown Charlevoix. The park boasts more than 6 miles of unspoiled Lake Michigan shoreline, and the south end is designated as primitive. The island for which the park was named is located off the shore of the day-use area. During times of lower water levels, the island becomes a peninsula.
The 2,678-acre park consists of rolling dunes covered with maple, birch and aspen broken up by bogs of cedar and black spruce, a rustic campground, a 2.5-mile hiking trail and a day-use area. The park is popular with hunters and rock hounds in the fall season.

Before visiting a state park, boating site or trail, it’s always a good idea to check the latest closures due to weather-related events, planned improvement projects and repairs. Visit Michigan.gov/DNRClosures.
