This park has a lot of nice hiking trails. I've visited often to do day hikes and have my…read morefavorites. The Lake of the Clouds overlook has a stunning view, especially in Autumn. The Escarpment trail starts there. This trail is hilly but gives you many different views of this area from different vantage points, all with their own beauty. The Big Carp River trail is another beautiful one that is a bit longer. The Presque Isle waterfall loop is an easy short walk with beautiful scenery. I also recommend a day hike starting at the Government peak trail and turn onto the Union Spring trail to Union Spring. I hiked these out and back during peak visiting season and had the place to myself.

A nice park on a beautiful large lake…read more We visited in early April and, although a bit cold to get out and sit beachside, we sat in our car for awhile and enjoyed the peace and scenery. I can't see camping here, unless it's during the less crowded shoulder season, just because the sites are so close together and there isn't much privacy. The beach is long, but narrow, and there is plenty of parking. From the shore, you can see the ski jump atop Pine Mountain in the distance. It's a nice place to take a break, when needed, and not to far from either end of Iron Mountain. 23/2025

I'm a veteran camper of the Midwest and thought I'd seen the worst storms. Nope!…read more Lake Antoine is great, small and still and cool. My lover and I kayaked across to a small island and had a great time...except for when I slipped on some moss on a rock. Meh, to be expected. The showers and bathrooms were good for a campground, great proximity to town. The campground is small and covered with pine trees - no underbrush. The campsites are small, open, and closely clustered. This is excellent for large groups and families, but my lover and I wanted privacy. Oh well. Our neighbor lady, Cathy, was super-awesome and we enjoyed hanging out with her! We heard some stunning coyote calls around 1am. Then a lightningstorm began at 2am and continued until 4am, when it became a constant drizzle. Of course we can't blame the park for the storm, that's just understood with camping. Around 3am, I peeked out of our 2 person tent; we faced away from the lake, which was about 60 feet away. All I saw was water!! We didn't know if this was just a giant puddle or if the lake had flooded! And since the storm was still going and the power was out, I wasn't about to get out and look around. When we emerged around 9am the next morning, to the sounds of many dogs barking, huge puddles were evident everywhere. Cathy explained that crews had removed fallen branches at dawn. Of course none of this is the fault of the park and I appreciate that they had cleared away deritis. Had the campsites not been so low, the flood damage wouldn't have been so bad. I wouldn't recommend camping at Lake Antoine if you want to "rough it" and have some privacy. This campsite would probably be better for groups with large campers.

Newport State Park is located toward the topmost point of the Door County peninsula…read more We stopped by on a day when we decided to drive the length of the peninsula. It actually had somehow escaped my attention that there are multiple state parks in Door County. I knew of and have visited and camped in Peninsula State Park but hadn't heard of Newport State Park. It's a beautiful state park with both beachy and woodsy areas. The coolest thing that i wished I'd known sooner on our recent trip to Door County is that it's been designated an International Dark Sky Park. Star gazing in the rich splendor of Door County? This is your spot.

From the cliff-like edges to the dark lava-like rock structures near Blackrocks, it's all a must-see. You could spend a whole day here in the summer no problem. Go hunting for beach glass along the rocky beaches, grab a bench and watch the waves, build a sandcastle on the beach, take a drive around the loop, there's endless ways to enjoy the park and all it has to offer. No hammocking, no dogs (from what I saw on the signage), and be prepared for wind while on the shorelines. Still a 10/10 and the best "park" I've been to.

What a great Urban Park! Presque Isle Park is a large public park that is a peninsula overlooking…read moreLake Superior. The park is easily accessible by car, bike or foot. My dad and I walked around the whole thing and according to my fitbit I had 3.5 miles but we did a lot of side walking too. We parked in the front near the lighthouse alongside of an ore dock. The iron ore docks were cool to see as they are unique to this part of the country. From there we walked out to the lighthouse and checked it out before starting off on the trail. The cliffs over looking Lake Superior and black rocks along the route were really cool to take in. Be careful though as these cliff rocks are known to go crashing in to Lake Superior. I'd say it's almost 3 miles to walk all the way around. There were tons of picnic tables and pavilions but not sure for getting the pavilions work in terms of renting them or if it's 1st come 1st serve. I also saw 2 kayak/canoe vans with trailers but didn't anyone kayaking or canoeing so not sure if that's an option near by.

The park includes a great looking playground, public restrooms and walking trails. It is named after George Shiras III who contributed the land for the park. Shiras was the first to do flash photography of wildlife at night. An entire issue of National Geographic in 1900 featured his work and there is a historical marker with a lot more detail on his life and contributions to conservation and study. There is a large parking lot available. [Review 17919 overall - 325 in Michigan - 1440 of 2022.]

Cool Spot, Must Hike Down After Catwalk!…read more Really beautiful waterfall, nice clean water and once you get down to the water line at the fall there was no one there when I went. It was cool because you actually felt alone in nature for once at a waterfall. You can also take the little trails up from the walkway to get onto the old railroad bridge which is now a snowmobile bridge and you can see good views as in my pictures that are shown. There is a nice walkway and the catwalk over to the falls under an old railroad bridge. Go ofc the right where the trail is and carefully climb down to the water. If you just go down the cat walk and that is it you won't be able to see you too much. It's important to navigate down but if you have physical limitations or any worries about climbing down the dirt hill you should not attempt it.

This was such a nice surprise!…read more For being right off the highway, I wasn't expecting much, but this ended up being one of the funner waterfalls in the U.P. It had a steep walkway down the mountain that is a fun workout to get down to, then back up, and you can get a great view of the bridge and waterfalls from down there. If you walk up only twenty feet or so from the main pathway, you end up on the bridge overlooking the falls-both great sites.
