  • Another Hidden Gem

    In the early 1920s, Harry M. Jewett, a Detroit automobile manufacturer, purchased land near Rose City to fulfill his dream of creating a haven for the "rod and gun." He named this private hunting and fishing retreat Grousehaven, and the main lodge was located on a narrow section of land between Lodge Lake and Grebe Lake.


    What is new in the Land of Parks and Harbors...

    Summer is rapidly fading but do not put the camping equipment away just yet. There are many fall events planned. Take a look at our calendar. You will find a Geology Arts Fair, a historic encampment; radio-controlled flying planes, triathlons and walks (some for charity), camper cook-offs, a lighthouse festival and a tour to find sandhill cranes and much more including the Fall Harvest Festivals.


    Our New Partners

    The first Racing for Wildlife conservation project is the restoration of Michigan's Mill Lake Youth Camp. Located about 30 miles north of Michigan International Speedway in the 20,000-acre Waterloo Recreation Area, the historic camp was built by the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s.
