Wells State Park, Michigan state park in Cedarville Township, US.

Wells State Park extends across 700 acres along Lake Michigan's Green Bay, featuring sandy beaches, wooded areas, and marked hiking trails throughout the property.

The children of John Walter Wells, a local lumber industry pioneer, donated this land to the State of Michigan in 1925 to establish the park.

The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed numerous structures, including buildings, water systems, and landscaping elements throughout the park during the 1930s and 1940s.

The park maintains 150 camping spots near the shore with 50-amp electrical connections, plus facilities such as dump stations and water supply points.

Three warming shelters positioned along the trail system allow visitors to take breaks during winter activities in the harsh Upper Peninsula climate.

Location: Menominee County

Inception: 1925
