Description

Your beloved pup can reconnect with their wild side at Algonac State Park. Located right on the banks of the St. Clair River, this 1,500 acre pawperty is the pawfect place to spend some quality time with your furry BFF!

When they arrive at the park, the first thing your pooch will want to do is hit the trails, so it's a good thing Algonac State Park has four different trails to choose from. For a shorter hike, follow Lakeplain Prairie Trail or Blazing Star Trail that are both just half a mile. Oak Savanna Trail is 2.5 miles, and a one mile portion of the Bridge to Bay Trail runs right through the park. Your pup will be impressed to know that the park’s lake plain prairies and lake plain oak savannas are rare habitats. Over a dozen protected species live in these ecosystems. If you do come across wildlife, help your pooch mind their manners and make sure they don’t chase or bark at them. Tote water for you both to drink, and clean-up bags on your adventure.

Local anglers know that the park’s shoreline is a prime walleye fishing spot. Bring your rod and reel along and try your luck at pulling in a whopper. The river frontage is also a well known place to view international freighters as they make their way through the water. Algonac State Park also has two campgrounds. The Wagonwheel Campground is more primitive, while Riverfront Campground has electrical hookups. All sites have access to modern restrooms and water. Day trippers can take advantage of the day use picnic shelters, grills, and fire pits.

When it comes to visiting Algonac State Park, it pays to be a Michigan resident. An annual Recreation Passport can be purchased for $11.00 at the time of your license plate renewal or for $16.00 at a State Park. A daily pass for non-residents is $9.00.

For a woofderful time with your pup, visit Algonac State Park!
