Lakeport State Park, State park on Lake Huron in Burtchville Township, Michigan.

The park stretches across 565 acres along Lake Huron, featuring two separate units with sandy beaches and forested camping areas on each side of Lakeport.

Established in 1938 as Port Huron State Park, the site received an $85,000 appropriation in 1946 and officially opened as Lakeport State Park in 1947.

The South Unit holds historical importance as a former United Auto Workers retreat where the Port Huron Statement was completed and announced in 1962.

The park maintains 250 campsites across two campgrounds, with each site equipped with electrical hookups, picnic tables, and access to modern shower facilities.

Both northern and southern sections of the park provide separate beach access points to Lake Huron, allowing visitors to experience different shoreline perspectives.
