One of the nicest state parks in Michigan and arguably the best strip of beach on Lake Michigan. We had an amazing time clambering on the dunes, walking to the lighthouse, and hiking the Lost Island trail. Camping, however, is something else. Sites are small and on top of each other.

- Endless Outdoor Adventures at Ludington State Park. If you are bringing your family, you’ll want to spend most of your time enjoying the beach, playing at the handicap-accessible playground at the Hamlin Beach Picnic Area, and learning from the interpretive and interactive areas of the Ludington State Beach House.
- The Iconic Big Sable Point Lighthouse. While you are normally only able to visit this iconic lighthouse by foot or bike by taking a 1.8-mile hike (one way) to the lakeshore, we were lucky enough to visit on a day that happened to be the last “Bus Day” of the season, where we were able to take a round-trip bus ride out to the 112-foot tall black and white striped lighthouse on a beautiful September day.
- Gorgeous Scenic Turnouts. As you make your way into the park, you’ll find a few scenic turnouts to hop out and enjoy the lake. While your first instinct may be to pass them by to reach your final destination, I encourage you to take the time to stop and explore these beautiful areas.
