Yearly Events
Crafty Flea Market
A joint venture in September with the Iron
Mountain Daily News, brings about 2,000
people to the park for a one day outdoor
craft and flea market. The Daily News
shares funds generated by booth fees and
gate donations and usually nets between
$1,500-$1,900 which we use for park
improvements like new signage. Vendors
are so pleased with being at this event that
they want to reserve sites for the following
year before the current year has
concluded.
Lights at the Lake
Businesses and organizations are invited
to create Christmas light displays in
campsites for this free community event.
Thousands of visitors will drive through
“Lights at the Lake” between Thanksgiving
and New Year’s Day. The displays will be lit
from 5 pm to 10 pm daily, and traffic will
flow one way through the park, turning left
after entering the main gate.
An Open House is scheduled for Sunday,
December 14, 2025, from 5-6:30 PM.
Display participants will greet drive-
through visitors, distribute goodies, and
spread holiday cheer.

LAKE ANTOINE PARK PARTNERS
DICKINSON COUNTY, MI
Over the past five years, we have drawn
thousands of people to the park with large
community events, encouraging new and
off-season usage. LAPP feels these events
bring a sense of community to the park and
encourage users outside the typical camping
and boating season.
