Wilson State Park is a 36-acre (0.15 km2) state park in Harrison, Michigan, located on the shores of Budd Lake. The primary activities are camping, swimming, and fishing.

The land for the park was donated to the city of Harrison in 1900 by a lumber company. In 1922 the land was transferred to the state, and in 1927 the state park was dedicated.
