Hunting and fishing are allowed in the Sleeping Bear Dunes Lakeshore under Michigan and federal law. The Secretary can still close certain zones or times to hunting for safety or public-enjoyment reasons, after talking with the state wildlife agency.

In administering the lakeshore, the Secretary must allow hunting and fishing on the land and water under his control, following the laws of Michigan and the United States that apply. After consulting with the appropriate Michigan state agency, the Secretary may set up zones and time periods where hunting isn't allowed — for reasons of public safety, administration, or public use and enjoyment — and may issue regulations needed to carry this out.
