About Laketown Beach

Laketown Beach is a township park on the Lake Michigan shore in Laketown Township, Michigan. Visitors walk from a small parking lot over towering sand dunes by way of a staircase of about 51 steps. The park has limited paved parking and a portable restroom, and it has no lifeguard, though a life ring is provided. Dogs are not permitted. As of October 2026, the entrance to the beach stairs was closed while crews install new stairs, so visitors should check the township website or Facebook for the reopening.
