Confirmed from Mulligan's Hollow's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Mulligan's Hollow
Great people! Great place to learn is on the bunny hill! Rope tow so be prepared with gloves that can handle the Rope! All my kids love going here! We signed them up for lessons and we have had great experience with all of them so far! I can tell they really enjoy working with the kids!
We walk our dogs in the off leash area behind Mulligan's Hollow. You can park in the parking lot, or there's street parking on the otherside, on Lake Street. It's a nice wooded area with a lot of different trails to take. All the dogs we encounter have been friendly and the owners responsible.
This place served as an excellent park with ski and snowboarding hills as well as hiking, bonfires, a skate park and more. It also plays host to Grand Havens famous Winterfest and home to the Coldwell Banker cardboard slead race. So much fun!!!
We visit the imagination station and it is a blast for kids under 7. In the winter the rope pulls and ski hills are a great way to practice skiing in Grand Haven. Absolutely worth checking out.
