Tawas Point is located off US-23, 2.5
miles southeast of East Tawas on Tawas Beach Road. It is just over an hour drive
from the Tri-Cities and only three hours from the Detroit area. The park
contains 183 acres situated on the end of a sand spit that forms Tawas Bay. It
has been referred to as the "Cape Cod of the Midwest." The campground is located
on Tawas Bay where the water is shallow and warm for swimming. Located within
the park is the Tawas Point Lighthouse. Although it has been remodeled several
times, the station serves as the sole representative of a true Victorian-era
style station built on the Great Lakes. |
