Lake Perrault DNR Park

5comments

This is an off road DNR park on a secluded, private lake. It's a dirty road leading descending to a fisherman's lake with a Nature Trail parking lot off to the right coming in. The road ends at the Lake's edge; a small beach/boat launch area. There are Trails into the woods on the right of the beach.

Best time
All day Best times: Anytime is good.
Crowd
Many types, not just cruisers. Campers with kids sometime stay out there.
Watch out
Never a sure time to go; there is no cruisiest peak time.

The guide

Where exactly

The entrance road to Lake Perrault is 3 miles south of Painesdale on HWY 26. Painesdale is 7 miles south of Houghton/Hancock.

Cruisiest spot: There are trails off to the right side along the beach/boat launch. Also, a new nature trail has been marked off. It's off the entrance road. It has it's own, small parking lot. It will make a good spot to park and cruise.

When to go

All day Best times: Anytime is good. Dates open: Spring through Fall, closed in winter

Etiquette

park the car, tap breaks, look and give signals. most people that go there are open to conversations, start one.

Nudity: plenty of privacy in the woods and farther off the beachboat launch area.

Safety

Never a sure time to go; there is no cruisiest peak time. With the new Nature Trail, there is an increase chance of family/kids visiting the area. So discretion is needed. No need to rouse the sheriff department into making rounds.
