- Hours:Open all day and night, not sure if bathrooms are locked at night, have not been there late.
Best times: I have found early morning, then busier later in the afternoon after work. Some noon action, but some local roughs and park workers spend their lunch time there. - Cruising Info/ Tips:Park furthest away from restrooms and walk by cars between you and restoom, make eye contact, the rest will follow.
Cruisiest Spots: West end of park, park car and watch, usually guys will be on picnic tables, or will touch themselves entering or leaving bathroom. - br
- Eye contact and slight gesture has always worked for me.
- Wheelchair Accessible:No
- Warnings:Local sheriff and state cops do pass through on occasion, bring a lunch or book.

This rest area park is NOT on M-123, but on M-28. Going north from US-2 on M-117, M-117 ends at M-28, and turning left (West) will take you to the rest area. Turning right will take you to M-123, which runs north from M-28 and through the town of Newberry, and up to Tahquamenon Falls.
