Lake Forest Cemetery Self-Guided Walking Tour
Step into a peaceful piece of Grand Haven’s history at Lake Forest Cemetery, a beautiful, park-like setting that has been part of the community since 1873. Located along Lake Avenue, the cemetery was established when Grand Haven’s cemetery was moved from what is now Central Park.
Today, Lake Forest Cemetery offers a quiet place to reflect as you explore the stories and history of generations of Grand Haven residents. The grounds include the historic Lee Memorial Chapel, the Sunken Garden, a Columbarium, and natural areas, including a Conservancy area with a Scatter Garden.
Whether you’re interested in local history, architecture, genealogy, or simply discovering the places that have helped shape Grand Haven, Lake Forest Cemetery offers a meaningful glimpse into the community’s past.
