Riper State Park offers half a mile of sunny Lake Michigamme shoreline. Van Riper- Modern - (800) 447-2757, 147 site(s), $23/$21 Van Riper- Rustic - (800) 447-2757, 40 site(s), $14 Van Riper-Rustic Cabin - (906) 339-4461 Description - Van Riper State Park boasts 1,200 acres with half a mile of Lake Michigamme frontage offering an ideal summer swimming location. Warm water temperatures and fine sand beach are a pleasant alternative to the chilly Lake Superior waters and its stone beaches. The park also has half a mile of Peshekee River frontage. First developed as a mining area, the park now supports several miles of hiking trails amid northern hardwoods and conifers. Back in the late 1980s, 59 moose were moved from Algonquin National Park in Ontario, Canada to a release area several miles north of Van Riper State Park. The herd has grown considerably and may be viewed when traveling areas north of the park. Information is available at the park. Van Riper is located in an area rich in scenic, historic and recreational sites. It is only a few miles east of the park where iron ore was first discovered in the Lake Superior region in 1845. Evidence of early mining ventures of almost a century ago can be seen along several miles of good foot trails that wander through the hills on the north side of the highway. A fine scenic overlook of Lake Michigamme is found along these trails. Open pit mines are still operating in the general area and the Iron Industry Museum located in Negaunee is well worth a visit. Attractions - Located in a conifer and hardwood forest, the Van Riper State Park offers an information center, sandy beach, hiking trails, two campgrounds and ideal fishing in the heart of moose country. A modern campground is located in a stand of conifers and hardwoods overlooking the lake. Modern conveniences include hot showers, flush toilets and electricity. Camping facilities are open April 15 to November 15 with no modern toilets the first and last month. The beach is within walking distance of the campground. |
