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.
