Interlochen State Park is situated between two well known fishing and swimming lakes; Green Lake and Duck Lake.
The campground is closed for winter. Information about winter camping opportunities is available on the DNR web site.
The park was established as Michigan's first state park by the state Legislature in 1917, which paid $60,000 for the land. The name of the park was originally "Pine Park"; a 200-acre public park which was created to preserve the virgin pine stand for the people of Michigan. In 1928, the National Music Camp was established on the property adjoining the northern boundary of the park.
