The park is located at the junction of US-31 and M-88 in Eastport Michigan. Turn on Barnes Park Road and follow it into the park.

The park is open from May 12, 2008 to October 13, 2008.

We are a first come first serve campground on 66 sites and taking reservations on 10 sites #51 to #60.

We offer both electric and rustic sites. Each site has a fire pit and a picnic table. Most of the sites are in wooded areas. Great for tents and trailers.

We have 2 modern bathhouses with shower facilities that are clean and ADA accessible. The showers are coin operated, $0.25 (a quarter) for 5 minutes of water. There are 2 sets of privies that are clean and ADA accessible also.

Quiet hours are enforced at all times of the day and night. If asked to leave the park there are no refunds and you may have to pay a fine.

Pets are welcome if the owners keep them on a leash and pick up and dispose of waste properly. Pets are not allowed on the beach. Torch Lake has a dog friendly beach less than a mile away.

We offer two spacious pavilions with electrical outlets. There are 10 picnic tables, 4 BBQ grills and horse shoes to enjoy. Reservations may be taken for the day (please contact Barnes Park for more information). No alcoholic beverages are allowed in the pavilion area.

This Grand staircase leads from the camping area down to the beach...

..where a breath taking view of the Grand Traverse Bay awaits you!

" If you seek a beautiful campground you need to look no farther than our Barnes Park, we have spent many wonderful days there. I have to take my hat off to the people that take care of the park. They do an outstanding job, the restrooms and showers are in excellent condition and very clean. the trash barrels are always empty and plenty of them. Some of the other park personnel around Michigan should come to our park and see how things are done."
