Interlochen State Park
Michigan's first state park established in 1917 cost the Legislature $60,000 for the land.
Just 15 miles southwest of Traverse City, this 187-acre park is prime fishing and swimming land. The public recreation area is actually a thin strip between Green Lake and Duck Lake. It's also adjacent to the renowned National Music Camp. Interlochen features almost a mile of lakeshore along with towering virgin pines.
A day-use area on Duck Lake offers a wide, sandy beach and designated swimming area. Summer fishing for bass, pike, and bluegill is fantastic in both lakes.
Feel like getting out onto the water? Rent a rowboat or kayak from the concession store open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. You'll find boat launches on both Duck Lake and Green Lake.
Hiking trails are limited here. Your only choice is the 0.6-mile Pines Nature Trail loop. But camping is great! A total of 476 sites are split between two lakes
