Tawas Point State Park is a scenic peninsula celebrated for its historic lighthouse, sandy beaches, and excellent bird watching. With its graceful name hinting at Native roots, "Tawas" derived from the leader of the Saginaw band of Chippewas, Chief O-taw-as, the spot offers trail-side camping, boardwalks over dunes, and wide lake views perfect for cyclists passing through on nearby-route US-23. Whether you're rolling in for a rest stop or pitching a tent under the stars, this quiet lakeside park is a welcoming escape for bike tourers and nature lovers alike.
