An Incredible Surprise
Incredibly beautiful and peaceful hike. We followed the North Country Trail along the river. Walked from the south end at River Bend Park to downtown Petoskey for breakfast before hiking back.

Beautiful and NO crowds
What a pleasant surprise! We tried several parks in the area but the crowds were too much. This place was not only free of crowds, but was the most beautiful! Wonderful trails, water rapids and a water fall. I highly recommend it!

Great Trails & Few People!
There are some paved and some non-paved trails here. Parking is a available in multiple locations for access to the trails. We just did a short walk from the parking to the little bridge overlooking the river. We saw a few people walking dogs, but overall not busy at all and we lucked out and didn't see a single mosquito either!
