Best known for its sugar-sand beaches, beautiful sunsets and views of the iconic “Big Red” lighthouse, Holland State Park is about 40 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids. This park is pet-friendly!

The park is home to two large campgrounds, an accessible playground, restrooms, picnic areas, opportunities for paddling and fishing, and connections to nonmotorized trails. The [park's two track chairs](https://www.michigan.gov/dnr/about/accessibility/Track-Chairs)– capable of handling trails, snow, sand and shallow water – expand access beyond traditional wheelchairs. The chairs are available for visitors to borrow at no cost. Pets are allowed in the designated dog beach along Lake Macatawa. Pets must always be on a 6-foot leash and under an owner’s immediate control.

All Michigan state parks require a Recreation Passport for entry. Nonresidents can purchase the Recreation Passport at any state park or recreation area or online at https://midnrreservations.com/store (allow 2-3 weeks for delivery). A day pass for nonresidents is $11, an annual pass is $40. Michigan residents can purchase the Recreation Passport by checking “YES” when renewing a license plate through the Secretary of State. You can also purchase the Recreation Passport by mail, kiosk, online at [www.expresssos.com](https://onlineservices.michigan.gov/ExpressSOS) or at SoS branch offices.
