Whitefish Lake State Park River Mile: 0

Although it’s right on the outskirts of Whitefish, this small park provides a mature forest and a pleasant campground and beach. Boating, swimming and fishing are popular activities and the lake is rarely windy so it provides ideal conditions for waterskiing. Children love the trains that rumble along the park’s edge.  Seasonal. Contact the regional office for open and closure dates.  10 acre(s).

NOTE: All river Fishing Access Sites (FAS) are listed in descending order by river mile from headwaters to mouth. The mouth of a stream is its confluence with another body of water and is considered mile 0. Click here to learn more.
