What a lovely park! We picnicked down by the boat launch, which looks out over Sturgeon Bay and Sawyer Harbor. Our view actually consisted of two islands and the homes thereon. There is a shelter, of sorts, very near the boat ramp, and we learned that it is actually a place to process your catch....there are metal tables there to do what you need to do. After eating, we drove through the park to take in the sights and get a feel for it. We headed up to the tower, and as of our visit, it is still closed. We continued to the Old Ski Hill Overlook and got out to take some photos. We drove through more forest and ended up at the Nature Center and Park Store. Here you can rent bikes, canoes, kayaks, and paddle boards. You can also pick up a souvenir or two, or some snacks. We made a pit stop at the toilets (flushable and with nice showers) before heading out and on our way home. This park is located within a decent distance of Sturgeon Bay, but is also remote enough that you won't get the sounds of the city disturbing you at night. It is an easy drive up the peninsula from this location, and day trips are definitely doable. The only downside, as others have mentioned, is that there is no beach at this park. If that is a deal breaker, there are 4 more state parks in Door County to choose from. I don't know if we will ever camp here, but I can definitely say that I am not opposed to another visit! 49/2022

Playground equipment for the kids, lots of benches to sit on so you can enjoy the beautiful scenery and shipyard. Yes, the shipyard was pretty cool to us Iowans. :) The park is also on the Wisconsin Maritime Trail, as the wreckage of the steam barge 'Joys' rests off of the shoreline. Great walking trail. My husband is an avid disc golf player, so their disc golf course left A LOT to be desired. I don't recommend it at all, but definitely check out the park for everything else including tennis courts.

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 sign is not very visible and comes up sneaky. The park has ample parking and open area at the far end. There is a small playground and a building I assume held restrooms. The dam creates a small lake with its ADA compliant fishing pier. You can walk across the small dam and explore the creek downstream of the dam. The Ahnapee Trail runs through this park. We saw a family loading up their bikes after a day on the trail. A nice enough park that is worth the detour off of highway 42.
