About Leelanau State Park

1,550 acres cover the tip of the Leelanau Peninsula, where land meets the water on two sides. The Grand Traverse Lighthouse stands within the park, marking a point once critical to ships navigating the surrounding waters. This stretch of shoreline and forest is set aside for public recreation.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
