Madeline Island Ferry boats operate on regular schedules between Bayfield and La Pointe from April to December. County Highway H loops around Madeline Island from La Pointe. To get to Big Bay State Park, take Highway H counterclockwise (Middle Road) from La Pointe about four miles to Hagen Road and continue east on Hagen Road about 2 miles to the park entrance.
One of our absolute favorite places to camp. Beautiful trails, beaches and Madeline Island is beyond charming. Small campground but absolutely perfect if you want that remote camping experience
Such a fun park to get to and be at! There are such great beaches and trails, some wheelchair accessible. We camped and had plenty of room. The bathrooms and showers were good. The water and views are worth coming back for! But reminder to bring cash, food and fill your tank before heading over on the ferry.
Beautiful park with scenic trails. Boardwalk takes you between Lake Superior and the lagoon. You won't see too much wildlife. We only saw birds and squirrels. No movement on the lagoon from any wildlife. If you visit Madeline Island, the park is a must-see.
