Lake Dubonnet Trail Camp Introduce
Welcome to Lake Dubonnet Trail Camp, located at 375 Gonder Rd, Interlochen, MI 49643. While primarily known for its trails, it falls within the context of Campgrounds & RV Parks due to its outdoor recreational focus. You can reach them at (231) 276-9511 or +1 231-276-9511.
Lake Dubonnet Trail Camp offers a diverse range of outdoor activities, primarily centered around its extensive trail system. The trails are wide and well-marked, making them suitable for hiking, biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. The terrain is mostly flat with some longer slope hills, providing a mix of easy and moderate challenges. However, hikers should be aware of numerous roots along the trails.
One of the highlights of this location is its excellent birdwatching opportunities, thanks to the thick forest environment. The trails are generally narrow, accommodating one person at a time, and offer limited views during the summer months due to dense foliage. However, during the winter, the open woods provide better visibility. Several spots along the trails feature benches for resting and enjoying views of the small lake.
The trail system includes various loops, with one reported route covering 3.6 miles. The trails are designed for easy navigation, making them accessible to a wide range of outdoor enthusiasts. Ample parking is available at the trailhead, and a Michigan Recreation Passport is required for entry.
Lake Dubonnet Trail Camp is an ideal destination for those seeking outdoor recreation in a natural setting. The combination of well-maintained trails, diverse activities, and excellent birdwatching opportunities makes it a valuable asset for the Interlochen community and visitors alike.

Decent trail, mostly flat with some longer slope hills. Lots of roots to be on the lookout for. The trail is narrow and most of it is only 1 person wide. Hiked during the winter so you can see through the woods but would imagine during the summer there wouldn’t be much of a view. A couple spots have benches to sit and view the small lake. Starting at #3 > 4 > 5 > 6 was 3.6 miles.
Wide trail system through thick forest for hiking, biking, snowshoeing and cross country skiing. Excellent birdwatching. Trails are well marked for easy navigation. Michigan Recreation Passport required for entry. Ample parking at trailhead.
I've been hiking and fishing the Lake Dubonnet area for most of 40 years and it has always been a favorite of mine. Its beautiful and very peaceful. There are miles of trails to hike or bike, as well as ORV trails too. The campgrounds are very popular, one being primarily a horse camp and the other for general camping with tents or campers. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a beautiful place to relax and enjoy with the family.
It's a trail. What do you want to know🤣 woods, animals, water, fishing spot near the dam. Rustic camping sites are first come, no reservations just get there first.
Out for a drive or out for the weekend, this is a nice quiet place to go for a walk, fish, birdwatch, pitch a tent or set up a camper.
