| State Park Overview: |
 | Holland State Park offers an expansive, sandy beach along Lake Michigan, two large campgrounds and a beautiful view of sailboats and sunsets. The park is divided into two separate units; one along Lake Michigan and the other along Lake Macatawa. The park was acquired from the City of Holland in December 1926. Since then it has been intensively used for its great beach and excellent campgrounds. |

| Fishing and Hunting: |
| A boat launch is available one mile east of the park and provides access to Lake Macatawa and Lake Michigan through the channel. These waters offer the angler a wide variety of fishing opportunities. The pier along the north side of the channel provides an excellent place for shore fishing. Charter boat services are available in the area to take people out on Lake Michigan. Ice fishing is a popular activity during the winter months. |
