This State Park offers a variety of winter recreation including ice skating, cross-country skiing and luge.

We were amazed by the Muskegon State Park's winter sport's complex and can't wait to come back this winter! We were there in the fall to check out the luge and ice skating trails because we had never seen either one before. We walked the lighted cross country ski trails and snow shoe trails as well. We can't wait to bring our girls here this winter to try it out--luge park is for all levels of experience, so someone like us who has never tried it before can do it as well. We have been to the beach here at North Muskegon State Park and it is not crowded at all and has nice facilities. Definitely worth the extra time it takes for us to come to this beach.

Family friendly beautiful state park. Beautiful beach and walking trails. Lovely creek winds through campsite with lots of trees. Great family atmosphere since no alcohol is allowed and the quiet time curfew is enforced.

This is our favorite beach. Lots of parking, clean with decent bathrooms. The beach area is huge, so even when there are tons of people, you dont feel super crowded. They also have a concession stand with ice cream, hot dogs etc. Along with rentals for water gear.

Clean area, felt very safe. There is limited parking at the Beach side park (50 cars) (Not suitable for larger RVs and large trucks). If you are using the beach area, it is sandy and water shoes work the best or old tennis shoes. The boardwalk is handicap accessible and stairs to the beach. Great for getting your stroller and little one to the beach, , , but stroller not usable on sandy beach. When on the beach it states no Dogs to the Left and Dogs on leash to the Right. We went to the right and felt just fine taking our dog off leash as everyone else had their dogs off of leash, although there is more than one sign that states" dog on leash only" . All the dogs enjoyed the waves, running after balls, frizbees and just being free. . There was about a 12 foot sandy beach area to walk with the lake on one side and Dunes that went up high on the other side. We could see a big board walk up on the dunes. . The dog run beach is about 1 mile long and meets up to a another park with signs stating "No Dogs", so we turned around and went back. Another parking area in the park to the S. of the dog beach takes you to a rent-able pavilion, flush restrooms, great playscape for young children, with lots of parking. (no access to beach here). The parking area between the two different sections of this park is maybe a 1/4 mile. We had a great time at the playscape and used both the beach area and the play-cape area more than once when we were camping at the State Park.

This park is on the White Lake channel to Lake Michigan so you can watch boats going out to the big lake, walk to the old lighthouse or just chill on the beach nearby. There are bathrooms as well. Bonus, it's dog-friendly!

Not too far from Muskegon State Park, a scenic drive between them, brings you to this unique park. The beach is between an inland Duck Lake and the Big Lake Michigan. The water spilling from Duck Lake to the beach provides shallow warm water to splash around in on the sandy beach! Fun area!
9. The Monet Garden of Muskegon

The Monet Garden is a lovely pocket garden in the downtown Muskegon area. It is a miniature copy of the real Monet Garden in Giverny, France. Features of the garden include a pebbled walkway to a pond with a blue bridge and blue rose covered archways. All flowers and shrubs planted in the garden are the same ones in the real Monet Garden.

Preparing for a daytrip to Muskegon, I was pleasantly surprised to learn of the Monet Garden. Just a year ago, we were in Giverny at Monet's House and Garden, so our visit to this garden brought back some beautiful memories. Love the garden arch and the Japanese bridge and water lily pond!! So beautiful!! And all the flowers! The hibiscus were stunning! And so many colors!! It was a great way to start our day in Muskegon.
