North Higgins Lake State Park is a {{convert|429|acre|ha|sing=on}} state park located in Beaver Creek Township, Crawford County, just northwest of Roscommon, Michigan. It is located on the north shore of Higgins Lake and on what was once the world's largest seedling nursery.

Facilities and activities

Facilities include swimming, fishing, picnicking (with picnic areas and picnic shelters), playground, and boating.

There are eleven miles of hiking trails through state forest land adjacent to the park.

The park offers access to 11 miles of groomed ski trails for cross-country skiing.

The park has 174 modern campsites for camping in two campgrounds and 2 mini cabins.

Other features

The Ralph A. MacMullan Conference Center, located adjacent to the park, is available for rental by government agencies, educational groups and other nonprofit organizations.

The Civilian Conservation Corps Museum, Roscommon, also located next to the park, documents the role of the Civilian Conservation Corps in Michigan from 1933 to 1942 when more than 100,000 young Michigan men performed a variety of conservation and reforestation efforts. Exhibits tell the story of how the Michigan CCC planted 484 million trees, spent 140,000 days fighting forest fires and constructed 7,000 miles of truck trails, 504 bridges and 222 buildings. The Michigan state park system carries many examples of their work still in use today, including the MacMullan Conference Center.

The Reedsburg Dam State Forest Campground is managed by North Higgins Lake State Park, although the campground's property is well outside the state park's territory.
