Whiting Park is located on Lake Charlevoix in Eveline Township between Boyne City and Ironton. It is situated on approximately 160 acres of beautiful forest. The park includes a campground with 58 campsites, 14 of which are universally accessible and 11 of those are equipped with electric up to 50 amp service. The campsites are all located on or near one half mile of Lake Charlevoix beach. A modern shower building and a pump-out station with water are available.
Whiting Park also has rental facilities including, a large pole building (with a kitchen) that seats up to 300 people, a classic 1940's log cabin that seats up to 60 people, and two secluded pavilions with electricity. These facilities are perfect for a wedding reception, family reunion, graduation party, or company picnic.
To reserve a facility for a large group, please contact the Park Manager by phone at (231) 582-7040 or via email at whitingpark@charlevoixcounty.org.

Campground Reservation Policy
Whiting Park contains 58 campsites, 10 of which may be reserved, 5 electric and 5 rustic sites.
As of January 1st of each year, we will begin accepting reservations for these ten sites.
Payments shall be made by check, money order, or credit card. Campground reservations are non-refundable.
Prior to submitting a reservation request, we strongly encourage prospective
campers to contact the park office by phone at (231) 582-7040 or by email to
whitingpark@charlevoixcounty.org in order to ensure that a campsite is available for the
desired time period. Reservations must be made by phone or in person.
Along with your reservation request, please specify the type and size of camping
equipment (i.e., tent, motor home, fifth wheel, or trailer). Every effort will be made to
ensure the campsite you reserve will accommodate the type and size of camping
equipment you will be using, but we are unable to guarantee this.
Reservations shall be made for a minimum of 2 nights and a maximum of 14 nights.
On the July 4th and Labor Day Holidays a minimum of 3 nights when making a reservation.
Any site that is reserved, but not occupied the first night shall be considered as being
vacant and eligible for rental on subsequent nights unless the park manager is contacted
and adequate reasons are given for the site being vacant that night.
Persons making reservations must be 18 years of age or older. The person making the
reservation shall be staying at the campsite during the duration of the campsite
occupancy.
The per-night camping fee for reservable campsites is the same as the fee for nonreservable
sites (currently $15.00 per night rustic and $25.00 per night electric). In addition to the applicable per-night camping fee,
a reservation fee of $5.00 shall accompany the reservation request.
Charlevoix County does not discriminate based on sex, race, color, creed, religion, or
national origin and shall charge uniform camping fees regardless of place of residence.
