About this file

This is a General Management Plan document for Rockport State Recreation Area (SRA), approved in 2008 by the Natural Resources Commission (NRC). The plan establishes a comprehensive management framework for the property, which encompasses multiple management zones including Developed Recreation Zone, Primitive Zone, Cultural Landscape Zone, and Natural Resource Recreation Zone. The document identifies key features and infrastructure within the SRA, including existing and potential points of access, parking areas, camping locations, and recreational facilities. The plan delineates property boundaries, dedicated boundaries, and recommended additions to dedicated boundaries as identified by the planning team.

The management plan incorporates infrastructure details such as paved and unpaved roads, multi-use trails, utility corridors, and historical features including the Middle Island Lighthouse and an old railroad grade. The document identifies natural and environmental considerations, including sink holes, sand boils, and the Besser Natural Area. Management priorities address both recreational access and natural resource protection across the multiple zones, with specific attention to developed recreation areas around Monaghan Point, Middle Island, and Rockport Bay, while preserving primitive and natural resource areas. The plan provides the geographic and operational framework necessary for ongoing stewardship and management of the SRA's approximately 5,000 acres located in Presque Isle County, Michigan.
