We are on a cross country road trip in our Vandoit and stopped here to camp for one night. The campground was reasonably priced with level sites, electric hook ups but no water. It had really nice and clean restrooms including an all gender single stall restroom at the campground. Our site was close to the walking path to the lake. There were several picnic areas and beaches to get in and swim. We also took advantage of the bike path. They charged us an additional $11 day use fee on top of our campsite fee so be prepared for that. Would definitely stay here again.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting North Higgins Lake State Park in Michigan, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the stunning natural beauty surrounding me. The park is a true gem, boasting pristine sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters that invite you to relax and soak up the sun. The well-maintained trails offered a perfect opportunity for hiking and exploring the diverse flora and fauna of the area. I particularly enjoyed the scenic views of the lake, which provided a picturesque backdrop for my outdoor adventures. The picnic areas were clean and spacious, making it easy to enjoy a meal surrounded by nature. The staff at the park were friendly and helpful, ensuring that my visit was enjoyable and stress-free. Whether you're looking to swim, hike, or simply unwind in a peaceful setting, North Higgins Lake State Park has something for everyone. I left feeling rejuvenated and eager to return. Highly recommend this park for anyone seeking a wonderful outdoor experience!

North Higgins Lake State Park is lovely with shaded camping sites, nature trails across the street at the Civilian Conservation Corps museum, paved trails for biking or hiking/running, and a dog beach. However, quiet hour (10pm - 8am) is not enforced as there isn't anyone on duty during those hours. We experienced campers that were very noisy. One site near us was up until 3:30 am partying! The noise is probably not a problem if you are in a trailer, but sleeping in a tent was extremely difficult because of the noise.

Beautiful park with plenty of parking. There is a boat launch area as well with lots of truck parking. The water is crystal clear and the sand bar goes out quite far so you can anchor your pontoon and swim in waist deep water. There is a dog beach, bath house and we also took advantage of the kayak rentals too.

Every year we get a little more disappointed. People get louder and louder and quiet time isn't enforced. The food truck is gone. Lots of dogs on the beach this year. The campground itself is nice and the bathrooms and showers have been very clean. Camp host does a craft for the kids. The trail to the lake is not lighted tho, make sure you have a flashlight!! Some rule changes mean you can't drop your kayaks off and park your car at the docks anymore. We may just day trip from now on.
