Lexington Park
Overview
Lexington Park offers a tranquil escape along the scenic shores of Lake Huron. Managed by Sanilac County, this park is nestled on a wooded bluff, providing visitors with breathtaking views of the water. Unlike sprawling commercial resorts, this destination maintains a peaceful, community-focused atmosphere where the natural beauty of the Great Lakes takes center stage for every traveler seeking a quiet coastal retreat.
Location & Surroundings
Situated just three miles north of the charming village of Lexington, MI, the park provides the perfect balance between secluded nature and local convenience. The property is characterized by its elevation above the lake, featuring a stairway that leads down to a private sandy beach. The surrounding area is lush with mature trees, offering shade and a sense of privacy that reflects the classic beauty of the Michigan shoreline.
Amenities & Park Features
The park is well-equipped to handle various camping styles, offering sites that include full hookups and electric-only options for smaller rigs or tents. Guests have access to a clean bathhouse with modern showers and laundry facilities to ensure a comfortable stay. Recreational features are abundant, including tennis and pickleball courts, horseshoe pits, and a playground for children. A large picnic pavilion is also available for group gatherings or family meals overlooking the lake.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Staying here puts you minutes away from the iconic Lexington pier and harbor. Visitors can spend their days browsing the boutique shops downtown or enjoying a live performance at the historic Lexington Village Theatre. The area is a haven for water enthusiasts, offering excellent opportunities for boat launches, fishing, and swimming. For a change of pace, the nearby golf courses and local wineries provide additional leisure options within a short drive of the campground.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is an ideal match for family vacationers who appreciate a safe, quiet environment with direct beach access. It also suits couples and retirees looking for a scenic home base while exploring the Thumb region of Michigan. If you prefer a smaller campground with a personal feel rather than a high-traffic tourist hub, Lexington Park offers the relaxed pace and natural immersion you are seeking.

My family and I stayed at this campground this past weekend and we absolutely loved it there. The hosts Mike and Cheri are such a lovely couple who are very kind and helpful. Mike drove around to drop off firewood. The bathrooms were the cleanest we've ever seen for a campground. Our kids enjoyed the playground. The beach was beautiful- the kids got to see the sunrise and even a shooting star at night! We liked how it wasn't a huge and overcrowded campground. While one side backed into the woods, the other side had more grass for the kids to run and play. We will definitely be coming back!

The Day use side has wonderful amenities- beach access, two covered picnic table patios, plenty of shade, grassy areas and raised BBQ grills. There are also porta-pottys, trash bins, a dog run area and tennis court. Clean, well maintained.

My kids are huge beach fans, so while in the area for the holiday, we decided to spend an afternoon at the Sanilac County Lexington Park. It's a small beautiful park tucked a little away, and it did not disappoint. We went in the entrance further from the campsites, as the park has two entrance options. The area we arrived in was more long than wide, with a sprawling grassy area containing 2 pavilions (1 large, 1 small) and a playground for kids. While I did not see any buildings for restrooms, there was a portapotty near the entrance of the parking lot. The parking lot itself also had plenty of available spots. If you headed straight to the back of the park, you will find some wide, wooden stairs leading you down to the beach. It was absolutely beautiful, and bonus that we had the place to ourselves. I was thankful that we didn't run into any trash in the sand, the beach was small but clean. The water stays shallow for quite the distance out, but I would recommend water shoes as it is very rocky. Had an incredible afternoon here, and can easily recommend a visit.

Very clean and beautiful short walk to the water. We could not take our dog to the water but not a big deal. Good playground for kids which we do not have. Lexington is a great town and recommend visiting love that this campground has full hook up. And the staff was amazing and loved our dog Josie!!!
