Located in the Haymarsh Lake State Game Area

The Haymarsh is open!!!! 

Managed/administered and operated by the Mecosta County Park Commission.  For information on Haymarsh Lake State Game Area Campground please contact Paris Park during the summer season (231)796-3420, or the Administrative Office in the winter months (231)832-3246.

Haymarsh Lake State Game Area is open year round for those who wish to walk in.  The MCPC will close the front gates in the spring when the weather starts to warm up and turns the roads into muddy puddles.  This way the roads don't get as torn up!  Plus it eliminates the chance of people getting stuck back there.  Once the muddy season is over, the gates re-open, usually around the first week in April.

The fee is $10.00/night for everyone, there is no longer a senior citizen rate.  It is an on-your-honor system where you put your money in the fee pipe during your stay.  The park is a first-come, first-serve park, no reservations.  No entrance fees are required.  Please make checks payable to Mecosta County Park Commission and please include your driver's license #, date of birth, and phone # on the front of the check.  Thank you

Each site is allowed:
one main camping unit, plus one additional tent
8 People per site
2 vehicles (not including motor homes)
up to 2 pets
No ATVs without proper State license and permission from DNR

There is also a group site at Haymarsh State Game Area which is site #20.  This site is used by reservation only and has a group rate that is $4.00 per person per night.  To make reservations contact Paris Park. 

NO OUTSIDE FIREWOOD IS ALLOWED DUE TO THE EMERALD ASH BORER.  THANK YOU
Paris Park staff take several runs to Haymarsh with bundles of wood for sale at $4.00/bundle.
