For a short, family-friendly hike, hit the Blazing Star Trail. It stretches for half a mile and showcases the unique ecosystem of Algonac State Park.

If you want to test your skills on the archery range, you'll need to bring your own bow and arrows.

Camping at Algonac State Park

Algonac State Park operates two modern campgrounds: one on the banks of the St. Clair River and the other set in the forest. Riverfront Campground offers around 200 sites, some with postcard-perfect views of the St. Clair. Waterfront sites are a great excuse to sink into a camp chair and watch freighters cruise by. Most sites offer space, privacy, and large driveways that can host RVs of up to 50 feet long. All feature picnic tables and fire rings for enjoying your meals outdoors. Serviced sites include electric hook-ups of 20, 30, and 50 amp. There's also a sanitation station for RVs with services onboard, as well as potable water taps and restrooms throughout the campground. Reservations are accepted between March and November and can be made up to six months in advance.

The Wagon Wheel Campground offers 76 sites, some shaded by mature trees and others set on sunny clearings. It's open from mid-May to late October and promises a laid-back atmosphere. Sites vary in size, though most can easily accommodate RVs of up to 40 feet in length. You'll also enjoy access to modern restrooms. There's a maximum stay of 15 consecutive nights at both campgrounds, so why not plan an extended getaway to Algonac State Park? Pets are welcome; just be sure to keep your dog on a six-foot leash and always supervise them.
