Heads up! This Friday-Sunday is the Barefoot & Free Yoga Festival! The event is held in the main day-use area of the park & parking tends to fill up quickly. Tickets are still available for those interested in attending. Additional parking for a quieter visit is located at the Huron Fishing Site (limited) & the boat launch off of Bass Lake Road for easy access to the hiking trails. We hope everyone enjoys the cooler temperatures & has a great weekend!

We know that your dog is the best dog!

However, for your dog’s, & all other dogs’ safety, please leash if you are planning to visit! Keep in mind, not all people are dog people & not all dogs are dog’s dogs. A leashed pet is the best bet when visiting a public space!

The moral of this dog riddle: leash it!

Reminder for everyone visiting for our Harvest Festivals this & next weekend: all good boys & girls must remain on a leash! We look forward to seeing you!

(As of now, the campground is full. Please visit www.midnrreservations.com to sign up for an email alert, should there be any cancellations.)

Happy camping!

We have exciting news! The separation of trails is complete! Mountain bikers & equestrians may now enjoy separate trail riding opportunities at Proud Lake. We want to thank MCMBA & the Proud Lake Trail Riders for the countless hours spent navigating this project. Now that the separation is complete, park staff is working on signage & mapping of the updated trail system while MCMBA works on fine-tuning some trail sections. Please note: there are a few sections of trail that remain multi-use for connectivity purposes. All trails remain open to hiking. Stay tuned for the updated maps. Happy trail riding!”
