Menominee River State Recreation Area
The Menominee River State Recreation Area represents a new and exciting partnership between the state of Wisconsin and the state of Michigan for the planning, development,and management of a new pubic recreation area on the Menominee River. This new recreation area encompasses approximately 9,700  acres of undeveloped lands along 17 miles of the Menominee River, stretching from Piers Gorge near Norway, MI/Niagara, WI to Quiver Falls near Faithorn, MI.

The management plan process for this new park is a collaborative effort between both the Wisconsin DNR and Michigan DNR. With public ownership on both sides of the river, this joint management plan will  help create a "one place, one feel" experience. The combined effort will give both states a unified approach that will, with citizen and community input, develop a planning and management strategy that protects the resources while addressing recreation and tourism needs and opportunities that can have a positive impact to the local economy.

In order to be successful in our planning process, we need your input. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Paul Curtis at curtisp@michigan.gov.
