About This Campsite

Welcome to Big Bay Park

Big Bay Park offers a wonderful escape into nature with its beautiful surroundings. Nestled along the shores of Lake Michigan, this natural retreat provides picturesque views of Whitefish Bay. Visitors can enjoy leisurely strolls or invigorating runs while taking in the soothing sounds and sights of the lake waves crashing against the bluffs.

Key Highlights & Considerations:

  • Excellent spot for beachgoers looking to relax by the shores of the Great Lake, with both sandy areas and more rugged trails for exploration.
  • Perfect for dog walking and enjoying early morning or late evening sunsets over Lake Michigan.
  • Keep in mind that the park is more of a semi-natural setting with limited amenities – no bathroom facilities, running water, or picnic tables available.
  • For those seeking a quiet place to unwind, benches atop the bluffs offer partial yet rewarding views of the lake.
  • Access to the water is provided via trails or stairs, offering a more adventurous trek through wooded areas.

Overall Thoughts:

If you're looking for a serene environment that combines the tranquility of nature with panoramic views, Big Bay Park is an excellent choice. Though amenities are sparse, the compelling scenery and opportunity for solitude make it a true gem for anyone eager to connect with the outdoors.

Nice park with fun beach area and trails through woods. You have excellent views of Whitefish Bay on Lake Michigan, especially these pictures I took during the polar vortex!

Excellent spot to walk the dog! A woodsy trail down to the small beach and a paved path that goes down as well. Nice benches up top to look out on the water. Nice place especially early AM or PM for sunset and sundown.

It’s a public semi-natural place, but not really much of a park. It has benches with partial views of Lake Michigan, on top of the bluff. You can access Lake Michigan either by climbing down the forested bluff, taking the stairs on the south end, or the trail at adjacent Buckley Park. There are no bathrooms, running water, or picnic tables. It does offer a scenic place to rest or walk, as well as solitude in the trees with the view and sound of Lake Michigan’s waves.
