A friend told us about Tawas Point State Park and we booked a camping trip for our anniversary. The campground is clean and quiet with friendly staff. It is wonderfully situated between Lake Huron for sunrises and Tawas Bay for sunsets with easy walks to both. Tawas Point Lighthouse is at the park and is a nice little tour. Hiking opportunities are abundant nearby. We went to Lumberman's Monument (about a 15 minute drive) and hiked the High Ridge Trail along the AuSable. Visited Iargo Springs another day. Lots of steps (at both) but worth the effort if you are able. Beautiful views at both stops! We typically eat at our campsite but did enjoy dinner at Mango's Tequila Bar. Great Mexican food and a decent Margarita. ICE CREAM. Ice cream was the best!! We went to Tawas Bay Fudge and Ice Cream Company downtown. YUM!! Great little get away. We will make reservations for next season.

Beautiful getaway! Take the time to take your time. Two days is not enough. Spot 101, close to shower/restrooms. Friends stayed in 50--shaded near the dog beach. Had a lot of people, but still quiet and peaceful.

My sister and I went camping at this park and loved our visit! Our favorite parts of our stay were swimming at the different beach access points and hiking the point! Another highlight was stargazing at night, the view of the stars was spectacular! Facilities were clean and easy to access and staff at the front office were super friendly and helped us get ice and firewood. Can’t wait to come back!

I've only been here to swim, but it does provide a very nice beach area. Very sandy and shallow water. They have a deep drop spot, but it is surrounded by caution signs to warn people. The bathrooms were ok and provided a separate spot for changing. We really loved our visit there. We didn't get a chance to check out the light house because we didn't have proper foot attire, so make she you bring closed toed shoes if you wanna go inside the lighthouse. Would definitely recommend.

This park is perfect for both camping and day use. It is a very busy place with it's beautiful beaches for swimming, dog use area, wildlife viewing, and watching the Kite surfers! The 4th of July Fireworks were also amazing from the beach. The lighthouse trail will take you to beautiful birding areas and it is fun to see the piping plovers everywhere! I love that we are protecting the habitats of our birds!
