About George H. Crosby Manitou State Park

The Manitou River runs through this park, positioned between Tettegouche and Temperance River state parks along Lake Superior's North Shore. The land here was deliberately kept undeveloped rather than built up with facilities, leaving the river corridor largely in its natural state. It sits near the small communities of Little Marais and Finland, inland from the lake itself.

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