Muskegon County Board of Commissioners has set fees for activities and facilities to offset costs for the operation, maintenance, and improvement of the county parks. The Board of Commissioners establishes rates for campsites, lodges, shelters and permits annually. Muskegon County Parks do not currently receive general tax dollars to fund our parks, accordingly revenue from parking pass and camping permits is what supports our county parks. Thank you for your support!
Motor vehicle permits are required at Pioneer Park and Meinert Part May 1st through September 30th and Twin Lake Park from Memorial Weekend through Labor Day. Dune Harbor Park requires a park pass year-round. Permit options are daily and annual permits.
The County Parks accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards.
Reservations for campsites, group camping, rental cabins, picnic lodges, and shelters must be made online. We do not accept call-in reservations. To learn more or to reserve a campsite, click below!
