Orchard Beach State Park
Due to a planned enhancement project to renovate the toilet and shower buildings, the modern campground will close Sept. 2, 2025 for the season. If the timeline changes, the dates will be posted here. A proposed $2.5 million in federal relief funding from Gov. Whitmer's Building Michigan Together Plan made these and other renovations possible.

More Information
Orchard Beach State Park is situated on a 100-foot bluff overlooking Lake Michigan, 3 miles north of Manistee. The park is best known for its spectacular views of sunsets and Lake Michigan. Please note: Due to high water and erosion, access to the beach (only available via the stairs) is closed.
The park was named for the old apple orchard that stood more than 100 years ago. Today, the centerpiece of the park is the recently restored and relocated 850-ton historic structure. More than 3.5 miles of trail traverse through an old-growth forest and former farmland.
Thanks to the Friends of Orchard Beach State Park for supporting the park.
