The Sea of Fall Colors
This park is famous because of the Big Spring. It's not the only attraction of this place. Especially during the fall, when colors are changing. you have great opportunity to see so many beautiful spots with crazy-beauty colors. You can take many trails through the woods and you will be surrounded by the nature. You have to pay the fee, but it's very "symbolic number". I recommend this park. RomanP

Easy Activity
The spring is right near the parking lot so it's quick to walk to. You may have to wait in line, so try to go early, but many people fit on the "boat" at a time. It is worth it if you enjoy nature or trout viewing. The views are great and it's free!

This is a must-see!
I can't believe I lived my whole life in the state of Michigan and yet had no idea this natural spring existed. What a beautiful and fascinating natural spring! Taking the raft across for viewing was just stunning. I can't emphasize enough that this place does not get enough press! I wish we had taken the kids here when they were young, but I had never heard of it before. Amazing! Since it's a state park, you'll need to pay an entrance fee if you don't have a state parks passport, but it is worth it!
