Love Creek winds its way through this rolling 200-acre natural area outside of Berrien Springs, Michigan. Six miles of hiking trails provide access to a variety of habitats, including a mature Beech-Maple forest with spectacular spring wildflowers.
The Berrien County Parks Commission's naturalist service is based here and activities are available throughout the year.
Love Creek offers outstanding cross-country skiing opportunities with groomed trails and ski rentals available. The Fields & Forests Bike Trail also provides cyclists with access to a 4.5 mile beginning to intermediate level mountain bike trail from spring through fall and this winter we'll be grooming a 3 mile fat tire Snow Bike trail!
Open all year. See Love Creek News at top of our website page for current building hours. Trails are always open during daylight hours.
FEES
The daily entry fee is $3.00 per vehicle for Berrien County residents. $5.00 for non-residents.
Annual Park Permits are available for park entry, cross country skiing, and winter fat bike trail use.
