History
The park was created when Cheboygan County purchased an initial eight acres of abandoned land that had been a park created by the Detroit and Mackinac Railway.[5] The county added another twenty acres to that holding in order to reach the 28-acre minimum required for the establishment of a state park. All of it was donated to the state in 1923.[6]
Activities and amenities
The park offers camping, boating, swimming, and fishing, and is skirted by the North Eastern State Trail.[4] The trail preserves the roadbed of the railroad that set aside the parcel of land used to help create the park.
