Sleeper State Park

About Sleeper State Park

Those who want to go hiking or skiing can use the well-maintained hiking trails or ski in the park. The pavilion can be rented for $5 per day or $10 per week for a year - 24 hours a day.

The park opened in 1925 as a landscaped park, but in 1927 the state acquired the property and named it Huron State Park. In 1944, the park was renamed in honor of the late Senator John H. O'Neill, who enacted the statute that created our state parking system.

The Sleeper Outdoor Center consists of a well-equipped kitchen, a picnic area, an outdoor dining room and a large recreational area with picnic tables.

Lake Huron is about 800 metres away and can be reached by a hiking trail or a short drive. The Sleeper Outdoor Center is located in a very remote, wooded part of the park, but nearby hiking trails offer miles of diverse recreational opportunities.

Families and small groups can rent individual cabins, or the entire complex can be rented in large groups. Safe toilets are available, but the dining room and toilet buildings are closed until the end of October. For more information about the Sleeper Outdoor Center and other accommodations, please contact the park for more details.
