Bay County Pinconning Park makes it easy to step into nature. Just off I-75, this “Gateway to the North” sits in a hardwood forest with boardwalks and trails that lead to lookouts over the marsh and shoreline. Tailored paths and clearly marked trails make it simple for all ages to explore together.

With approximately 137 acres to discover, Pinconning Park is also a popular destination for bird-watching and quiet nature walks. It’s easy to fit in a short stroll after work or spend a full morning immersed in the habitat that defines our corner of the Great Lakes Bay Region.

If your perfect day includes time on the water, Pinconning Park is the place to be. From a sandy beach to an easy launch, it’s never been simpler to get out on the Saginaw Bay. Anglers will find themselves right at the gateway to some of Michigan’s best walleye and perch fishing. Two fishing docks, playground equipment, and picnic pavilions make for a relaxed day outside for families and friends.

For overnights and longer stays, choose from modern and rustic campsites or six cozy log cabins, all supported by a clean, well-maintained bathhouse. The park is open year-round, and you can request campsites, cabins, and shelter rentals online so planning a close-to-home getaway is easy and stress-free.
