North Higgins Lake State Park, State park and former tree nursery at Higgins Lake, Michigan, United States.
North Higgins Lake State Park is a wooded area along Higgins Lake featuring sandy beaches, campgrounds, and marked trails for exploring. The grounds include multiple overnight accommodations such as campsites and cabins, along with facilities like restrooms and electrical hookups for visitors.
The grounds originally served as the world's largest tree nursery, producing millions of seedlings for reforestation projects. Over time, the site transitioned into a public recreation area for park visitors.

The park provides campsites, small cabins, and complete facilities suited for different needs and seasons. Visitors will find everything required for a stay, from restrooms to electrical connections, and can visit year-round.
The area connects to an extensive network of trails that run through state forest and allow year-round activities like hiking, biking, and cross-country skiing. This connection makes it a versatile destination for outdoor adventures across all seasons.
