Campers Cove

Stayed 4 nights in early September. Nice area and RV spots around the lake. Check in was easy and friendly. Internet and cell coverage were good. Showers were clean and maintained. Level site, had shade trees. Very quiet and laid back. The site is clean, Overall it’s a nice place to unwind and spend a few days, I would recommend it to others.

Favorite Place So Far!

Campers Cove in Alpena is so nice! Some great things include: putt putt, most sites are on water, there is a fishing pond, a camp store, nice workers, they pick up trash at the camp sites, they will drain your camper tanks for you at your site for $10, there are boats and kayaks to rent, indoor pool, it’s only 15 minutes from Lake Huron, and the bathrooms and showers are nice compared to other places I’ve been to! We were there for a big family camping trip, we had 6 sites, and we reserved again for next year!

Wifi upgraded

We have been seasonal campers here at Campers Cove for the past 18 years. We have witnessed MANY OUTSTANDING POSITIVE changes in the operation of this park over our time here. The one thing that kept eluding Mark and Judy was the quality of the internet service. My son in law and I pitched a massive overhaul/ upgrade in infrastructure to Mark and Judy. I won't go into specifics regarding cost, let's just say it was significant and required a massive undertaking. We started the project in May and DESPITE COVID 19 we managed to finish at the end of July. The internet speeds were around 3 Mbps download and 1 Mbps upload. We teamed up with Spectrum to revamp their old television cable system to strictly a broadband internet delivery. We have 3 separate networks now, each with 600 Mbps capability. Using the latest in mesh technology, we are able to deliver a minimum of 25 Mbps down and up to each site. You may still need a booster to bring the signal into your trailer because you basically live in an aluminum box. You now can stream, surf, tweet, snap chat or remotely work to your heart's content. As I said in the beginning, I am a seasonal resident here, I have suffered through the"dark ages"(Lol). But thanks to Mark and Judy's commitment to providing the best possible service, your next visit will allow you to fully take advantage of technology. We are honored that our company AVD+(Audio Video Data Plus) has been named as the official IT representative for Campers Cove. If you are in the park and have questions, I'm at site 81, please feel free to stop by and we will do our best to assist you with recommendations on boosters, streaming services, or help set up your devices on the network.

Great family camp ground

So everything isn’t perfect, but for kids it’s great. There are bikes, pontoons, kayaks, canoes and much for that can be rented and is pretty inexpensive. They also have putt putt golf which costs us 1.50 per person. That being said it is probably the worst kept putt putt I’ve played, but my kids (all under 8) enjoyed it. We really enjoyed this camp ground as a family of 6.
