Summer is the best time to visit. Daytime highs typically run 75–85°F, warm enough for swimming and boating on the Huron. The forest canopy provides shade during group gatherings, though you'll want bug spray for mosquitoes and ticks. Weekends fill up fast, so reserve early. Dry spells sometimes trigger burn restrictions, limiting campfire use.
Trails and hardwood forest offer good fall color and pleasant weather for hiking.
