Tawas Point State Park Campground

About this site

Tawas Point State Park Campground is located on the end of a sand spit forming Tawas Bay along Lake Huron in Michigan's sunrise coast region. Known as the Cape Cod of the Midwest, this 183-acre park features a modern campground with 189 electric sites positioned along Tawas Bay, many offering water views and beach access. The campground's designated swimming beach is particularly popular for its warm, shallow waters ideal for families. Modern restroom facilities with showers remain open throughout the year, making the campground accessible even during winter months. The park offers year-round recreation including swimming, fishing, hiking, paddling, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing. From the park, visitors can access the Alabaster Pathway and Tawas Bay Bike Path, part of Michigan's Iron Belle Trail, which runs about 4 miles to East Tawas. Additional Info: The campground has two mini-cabins and a yurt along the north side near the bathroom, and two camper cabins near the bay with a kitchen, two bedrooms, and a living room. Campfire rings are available at sites. A dishwashing station is provided for campers.
