The park, which is maintained and operated by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, is located in the southwest corner of South Haven Township and the northwest corner of Covert Township, just north of the Palisades Nuclear Power Plant. Van Buren became a state park in May 1965 when the original 167-acre plot was purchased from the Harry LaBar Drake family.

Directly north of the park is the Van Buren County–owned North Point Conservation Area.
