Tunnel Park

"There is a long stairway from the parking lot up and down to the beach (or steep sand hill the kids loved conquering) but absolutely worth it. My favorite beach view in all of Michigan. The mound you do go over also gives this amazing high scenery and blocks a lot of sound to add to the stillness and seclusion of the spot"

"Don't miss out on gr8 sunsets & smooth sandy beach!! Just a short walk--less than 250 feet from most "Fall parking spots". Beach, Picnic area & Playground areas r PHENOMANEL. Restrooms are big --the stalls are big enough for husky people like me to change into swimwear and there are 2 water spickets to rince sand off kids or adult legs. ***Saw an East Coast family dropping off their teenager to Hope College that weekend & heard them comment that it "was like the ocean--u can't see across to WI." >The BADGER State!!!** Enjoy these photos taken in late OCT this yr. From Mr. B. the Michigan Honey Badger himself!"

"This is a really wonderful lakeside park just outside Holland, MI. There's on site parking, picnic areas with grills and a nice bathroom with changing rooms. You'll see a number of steps right next to a sand dune hill the kids love. After you reach the top of the steps, you'll see a kind of boardwalk with grass areas and places to sit and enjoy the view of the spectacular Lake Michigan. To reach the beach, you'll need to climb down a substantial number of steps. We were there September 25th and the temps were 70ish and it was cloudy with a slight breeze. We didn't enter the water but when I've been there in past the water was always cool or cold. The views are wonderful. You'll see sailboats floating across the lake, birds and lovely plays of light across the water."

"Beautiful, well maintained park with beach access. Great playground and nice bathrooms. Love the tunnel access for those too weary to climb the dune!"

"A great spot for those that want to hangout on the beach, or those that want to just look at the beach or watch the sunset. There are two options for accessing the park, including a set of stairs to take you to a great overlook, or the park's namesake tunnel that takes you right to the beach. There's also a playground, a restroom, and a ton of parking."
