Me and my wife basically did the Dune Climb which was very extraordinary which I reviewed on a separate page. This place was very well maintained with very minimal trash.

Getting into the beach can be a bit painful with all those rocks just stabbing your feet. I absolutely had an incredible time here regardless. I highly recommend checking this place out if you ever have to chance!

The Michigan Legacy Art Park, located within the Crystal Mountain resort, is about half a mile away…read morefrom the "main" area of Crystal Mountain where you get your rentals and lift passes. It's an easy trek over and then the actual park is about 1.5-2 miles round trip depending on which routes you take. This is such a cute idea for a park and honestly, I wish all parks were like this! There were a lot of interesting art pieces stationed throughout the park and most were highlighting local artists and organizations. There was some student art as well, but predominantly professional artists having their art on display. It's a very intentionally curated art park. We came here in the winter, so some of the smaller and/or lower down pieces were buried under the snow, but the vast majority was still accessible. There's an informational plaque next to each piece of art, so you can't miss each "exhibit". My personal favorite piece was the gazebo one with a mobius strip sculpture located in the middle of it. The sculpture was made entirely from one piece of Black Willow tree wood, which I found so impressive! This gazebo area was also just so peaceful and a great place to meditate and just listen to all the sounds of nature around you. Because it's located a bit away from the rest of the resort, you don't get a ton of foot traffic here. But the art park does connect to some of the cross country skiing trails, so if you want to do a proper "loop" hike around the art park, it will involve going onto the cross country trails for a short portion of it. So be mindful of your surroundings and share the trails with the skiiers during those parts! But other than that, I think my friend and I only encountered two other groups of people as we hiked throughout the park and we spent around 1.5 hours here, stopping to appreciate each piece of art throughout our hike as well. There's also a cute little free library at the front of the park, so definitely very family friendly! All in all, a great activity that I can imagine would be stunning and unique during each and every season and a great option, especially during the winter, if you're looking for other activities to do at Crystal Mountain outside of skiing and snowboarding!

I appreciated that it had flexible hours and is a free dog park (suggested donation box avai). This is the biggest dog park that we've been to compared to the ones in IL and it's free! The park has 2 different areas that are gated and a place in the middle of the park if you want to switch over to the other gated park. Both parks are huge but the one to the right feels slightly bigger. The parks have dog bowls laying around for water and toy boxes available to use as well. Poop bags are available and it is encouraged that people pick up and toss their dogs' poo out in the trash on the way out. I stepped on poo the first time I came here and that was not pleasant...the 2nd time I came here, I didn't step on poo but there were poop bags laying around. It would be nice if people just picked up and threw away their own dogs' poop. Other than that, the park is overall clean. We'll be back if we are in the area again!

The road to the entrance is full of sand dunes and beaches on Lake Michigan before turning into a wooded area at the actual park. We got to see a Bald Eagle perched upon a tree as we entered the park. The park has several RV camp sites that to me looked to be right on top of each other. They pack them in like sardines but I think that is the norm at these type of places these days. Not sure what the cost is to camp but for non-residents to come in for a day pass it was 11.00 per day. We decided to do the Lost Lake trail which is a loop across a couple islands on Hamlin Lake (yes there are bridges, you don't need to bring your snorkel). The hike was relatively void of people only passing a few along the way. I did see a hand full of people kayaking on the lake and a few more kayaks parked on the bank near the campground. The hike is 2.1 miles long and relatively flat the whole way. I wanted to do the lighthouse trail as well but there wasn't enough time. Great place to get your nature fix via kayak or foot. Not sure I would want to camp here on a weekend though unless you want Billy Bob and Mary Sue's 7 rugrats running around your site screaming.

There is a water fountain there to give your dog a drink, you a drink, or to fill a water bottle. There is the 2 gate system to keep dogs in. They have a small dog area right away. The other gate goes to a long curved paved walkway that goes behind all the dog park that lead to a grass area with climbing dog toys and plenty of room to run. So basically the the large dog area is long and skinny. That being said it's great. It's a great use of space. Play with your dog a watch a baseball game or plane watch the airport that's on the other side. Entertainment for both. They have lots of benches, which I appreciate. It took forever for Charlevoix to get a dog park. Not many people seem to know about it yet, but boy did they do a great job. Overall a 5 star review! I've already been back and will be again.

They have a small parking lot (I think there's more parking the further up into Old Mission peninsula you go), but the parking lot I pulled up in is relatively small, but also on a Saturday evening, there were plenty of people coming and going and eventually I was able to get one of the spots that faces right up to the beach. I rolled my windows down and just enjoy the sounds of the waves, people running about, and read my book and ate my dinner while I waited for the sunset! It was wonderful and exactly what I wanted! Thanks Bryant Park! It looks like there's also a part of this beach that is dog friendly if you keep to the left side fencing of the beach from this parking lot and once it opens up closer to shore, keep left and there'll be a whole strip where the dogs are allowed to play.
