Thompson's Harbor State Park is a remote and largely undeveloped public recreation area on Lake Huron covering 5109 acre in Presque Isle County, Michigan. The state park's 7.5 mi of pristine shoreline encompass a varying terrain of second growth forest, limestone cobble beaches, and deep sand dunes. The park's flora and fauna include a large population of dwarf lake iris as well as more than one hundred bird species, coyotes, deer, and possibly black bear. The park offers 6 mi of trails for hikers and cross-country skiers, rustic cabins, and opportunities for sea kayaking. The park was designated a Michigan "dark sky preserve" in 2016.
