Location: Negwegon State Park main beach area. Negwegon State Park can be reached from the north by taking Wilds Road off U.S. 23 for approximately 5.5 miles to State Park Road. From the south, visitors can take U.S. 23 to Black River Road, then travel about 3 miles north on Sand Hill Road to State Park Road. Sand Hill and Wilds Road are seasonal roads; however, they are pretty well maintained this time of year.
