Mears State Park

Encyclopedia : M : ME : MEA : Mears State Park

Mears State Park is a state park in Pentwater, Michigan. It is a sandy park directly on Lake Michigan, bordering a channel leading into Pentwater Lake. The park only covers 50 acres but has swimming, camping, and picnicing areas and a one-mile hiking trail. The park land was once owned by Charles Mears, who was an early settler of Pentwater, and was donated to the state by his daughter in 1923 when Michigan was beginning to establish its state park system.
