How would you improve Michigan’s first state park?
Nestled between the shores of Duck and Green lakes, Interlochen State Park offers both modern and rustic camping, boating, paddling, fishing, swimming and much more. The park was acquired by the state in 1917 and established as Michigan's first state park by the Michigan Legislature in 1919. Some of the large, old-growth red and white pine trees, for which the park was originally protected, remain throughout the park. The world-renowned Interlochen Center for the Arts is located just across the northern boundary, offering a year-round calendar of concerts and events.
Those interested in long‐term planning for Interlochen State Park in Grand Traverse County are invited to provide feedback on a new general management plan for the park.
The public input process is essential to ensuring the park continues to serve visitors and the Grand Traverse community for years to come.
Visitors, community members, stakeholders and others interested in sharing their opinions, ideas and experiences are encouraged to participate in an online survey, available through Feb. 22. Links to both the online survey and the project website are available at Michigan.gov/Interlochen.
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources uses general management plans to define long-range planning and management strategies that protect parks' natural and cultural resources, while also addressing recreation and educational needs and opportunities.
