Craig Lake State Park Is Best Remote State Park In Michigan

While Michigan is home to plenty of great nature spots to escape into, it can be hard to find a park that isn’t full of other people exploring. Craig Lake State Park in the Upper Peninsula, however, is one of the most remote parks in our state and will have you feeling completely secluded. Not only will you have over 8,000 acres to explore, but there are also cozy yurts hiding inside this slice of nature for the best remote accommodations. If you’re looking to escape in true Michigan nature, Craig Lake State Park in Champion is the best remote getaway.

Featuring six different lakes, miles and miles of hiking trails, and plenty of wildlife to see, there's something for everyone here.
