Belle Isle became a state park under a 30-year lease agreement with Detroit. Recreation passports are mandatory for vehicles entering state parks.

In previous years, vehicles could enter Belle Isle without a recreation passport until the vehicle owner's next registration renewal date.

A recreational pass can be bought at Belle Isle at the island's administration building. The passes cost US$11 for vehicles, US$5 for motorcyclists and US$16 for buses. The pass is valid until the motorist's next license plate registration renewal date.

Pedestrians, bicyclists and those using public transportation can enter the park for free.
