We visit Leelenau State Park and the Grand Traverse Light every few years and it never fails to disappoint. This year, we were so lucky to have the beach area basically to ourselves for a couple of hours! It was so peaceful and chill. We had brought our bag chairs along and sat listening to the waves and birds. Hope to have this same experience again someday!

One of the most beautiful campsites I have ever experienced. It's very secluded and located on the furthest point north on the Leelanau Peninsula. Incredible sunrises and sunsets overlooking Lake Michigan. A century old lighthouse is viewable from inside the park, and you may get to see the Aurora Borealis if you're lucky. Definitely worth the visit if you can handle primitive campgrounds. There are no bathrooms, showers, or electrical setvices. only vault toilets and beautiful beaches. Well maintained and plenty of tree coverage in most sites. Highly recommend this spot off the beaten path.

Beautifully restored history of The historic Grand Traverse Lighthouse! Thanks for keeping history alive! State Park entry fee in addition to $8 per person to enter the lighthouse.

Leelanau State Park was amazing! Quiet, peaceful and well-maintained relative to other State Parks. I loved that every site had proximity to the beach. I solo camped with my dog and felt extremely safe. Vault toilets were well-maintained, park staff was super helpful. Thanks, Jamie, for all your help and concern when I misplaced my keys!!! If you want to camp where people don't bring ATVs, dune buggies, strobe lights, boom boxes - this is a great place. Seemed like everyone there just wanted to enjoy nature and observe spectacular sunsets on Lake Michigan. (One thing I didn't check on but campers should know is that the firepits do not have grills on them.)

This state park is out of the way but definitely worth the drive. There are ample wineries to stop at along the way😉 The shoreline doesn't disappoint and it is dog friendly as well. There is a gift shop where you can find unique suviners and gifts, bathrooms conveniently located and can tour the lighthouse as well
