North Higgins Lake State Park, State park and former tree nursery at Higgins Lake, Michigan, United States.
North Higgins Lake State Park extends across 449 acres of woodland terrain, featuring sandy beaches, campgrounds, and marked trails for outdoor activities.
The park grounds operated as the world's largest tree seedling nursery before transforming into a recreational destination in the Michigan park system.
The Civilian Conservation Corps Museum within the park documents the efforts of workers who planted 484 million trees during the Great Depression.
The park maintains 174 campsites across two areas, offering 50-amp electrical service, modern restrooms, and mini cabins for overnight stays.
Eleven miles of marked trails adjacent to the park connect to state forest land, providing year-round opportunities for hiking, biking, and cross-country skiing.
