Indigo Bluffs RV Park

Ashley here from The Dyrt! It was great to add this property that was purchased in 2007. This RV Park has been operational for over 10 years! Let’s help them out and leave some reviews!

Nice campgrounds clean restroom and showers. Swimming pool very nice friendly staff.

This campground is absolutely beautiful! Tons of trees, large sites, well maintained, clean, friendly office staff. What more can you ask for? Close to everything, FHU, level, absolutely would stay here again!

My goal is always to find campgrounds that are in state park or national forest settings, but with all the conveniences of a private campground. It’s a bonus if there are lots of things to do in the area. Indigo Bluffs delivers on all fronts. We had a lovely, shaded, level, spacious site which most of them seemed to be.

The campground was large - it’s actually two parts - an RV resort for large fifth wheels and Class As and another campground for everyone else. I really liked the regular campground as it had a lot more shade than the RV resort area.

Indigo Bluffs is close to Empire which has a beach and Joe’s Friendly Tavern. Joe’s has excellent hamburgers and plenty of beer variety. It is also close to a trailhead for the Sleeping Bear Dunes Heritage Bike Trail. The Sleeping Bear Dunes trail is wonderful, a bit hilly, but oh so scenic! It is also close to the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park and the infamous Dune Climb. We took a short drive to Sutton’s Bay and rode on the Leelanau Bike Trail to Traverse City. If you do this, be sure to stop at Farm Club on the way back. Excellent brewery and farm-to-table restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating and a farm market.

We will definitely return to Indigo Bluffs!

We had a great time at Indigo Bluffs! Looking forward to returning again this year.

Driving in you have a gated section and a regular section.

Class C is not ALLOWED in the gated section. I found that amusing since we have a 2020 Tiffin Wayfarer

Nice office Customer service was fair Laundry room good

Got to our assigned site Really terrible

Went to office Girls didn't know their campground, gave us 2 to pick from

Very close together

Sleeping Bear Dunes National Shoreline very close

Biking trails very close

All in all a pleasant experience

We absolutely loved this campground! We will be back for sure.

We had a great experience at the RV resort. We stayed on both sites 44 and 4 and both were very nice stamped concrete pads with full hookups. Gorgeous landscaping. The lodge is very nice with a full kitchen, two full private bathrooms, lounge area and a covered outdoor patio complete with a full size gas grill.

Close to Empire and Glen Arbor! We would stay here again!

This is a great location for a campground. Close to Sleeping Bear Dunes, hiking trails, biking trails, and canoeing/kayaking on the river. It’s back off the road a ways so it’s quite and it is well maintained and clean. There are 2 sides to this campground: one is your standard RV campground and the other is a luxury RV resort for class A motor homes and 5th wheels only. A couple of things that we really liked about the campground is they have daily trash pick up at your site and they have a food truck at the campground. The pool was very clean and well maintained. A couple of things we didn’t care for is outside of the pool and a small playground there wasn’t really much for kids to do. There were no planned activities or anything. I also found it odd that even though Covid restrictions have eased up they are still operating under a lockdown. There store was window service only. If you did want to go inside someone had to unlock the doors for you and you were required to wear a mask. Other than we had an enjoyable stay here.

We have stayed here several times. Wooded sites and a decent amount of space. The staff is friendly and they are very helpful in finding a good site based on what you are looking for. The campground is convenient to Sleep Bear Dunes, Traverse City and all the nearby activities. I would give it 5 stars but it is a bit pricey. We always stay at the RV Park and not the Resort. The Resort is for big rigs only.

This is a nice campground with many options, as far as campsites go.  They have everything from basic tent sites to high end sites for newer Class A motorhomes and fifth wheels.  The pool is decent and there are organized activities for kids.

Great layout, nice level sites, super peaceful. We stayed on the RV Park side not the RV Resort, the sites were quite large, well shaded and spaced a good amount apart. Wonderful location to the dunes. And Glen Haven beach is just up the road, the beach is large, parking can be a pain but the water is AMAZING! We spent a whole day on the beach and playing in the water. Staff was also very nice and helpful with any questions we had. Another bonus If you’re doing long trips is they have a coin operated laundry room, this was our second stop on a 9 day trip and it was nice to get all our laundry caught up before we got home.

My kids LOVED this place. Pool and endless loops of biking. We’re new to having a trailer, and we found the sites easy to back into. Some lanes are more wooded than others — the water/electric (NOT full hook-up) sites feel less exposed, as do those that back up to the horse field. Pricey, yes, but that’s the whole area.

Nice RV park with full hook up. Tight, close spacing for some of the sites. For the price I thought it would have more space. Indigo has a nice atmosphere plenty of trees and a nice pool. Plenty of kids for my son to play with. Playground was very disappointing! I would come back but I would be more than happy to try other RV Parks.

The location of the campground is great. Close to Empire and Glen Arbor. Campground is well maintained and office staff is friendly. However, the “backroads” sites are very close together. Disappointing for the cost.

This place gets ZERO stars (but it won’t let me). It’s a parking lot with trees. I will NEVER COME BACK. This place is awful.

Very nice, well taking care of.

The spaces are tight unless you get into the back rows set back sites. This is a terrific way to solve the tight spacing. The staff is great. The bathrooms are clean and the pool is decent. Lots of trees. Will likely be returning.

This campground has two sides, the campground which accommodates tents, campers and RVs. Also they have small cabins. They offer full hookups as well as 30 & 50 amp service.  Nice shower and bathroom facilities, coin laundry, pool, and camp store. The other side is the “luxury RV Resort” with concrete pads, grass, ponds and lots of greenery. Very upscale.

This is one of my favorite campgrounds and it’s located in our favorite vacation destination! We have stayed here several times with our extended family on sites near us and can’t wait to go back again. It’s dog friendly and the staff is always helpful and friendly too. The location is close to many nearby attractions, M22, outdoor adventures, beaches, lake, boating rentals, rivers, restaurants, wineries, quaint lakeside towns. The sites, bathrooms and pool are clean. They spray for bugs so there’s not too many creepy crawlies or biting bugs in the campground. Plus there’s no poison ivy!

My husband and I have always preferred the quiet laid back feeling of state park camping but since purchasing a 40ft 5th wheel we have found ourselves looking at private campgrounds to accommodate its size. Indigo Bluffs provides the perfect combination of space and tranquility. Plenty of trees, large sites, friendly staff, and convenient location will bring us back!

This campground is cheap and easy to access. It has a fire pit, nearby bathrooms, WiFi, and was in short driving distance to the Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City. They have a shop at the entrance where you check in and have food, ice, and firewood available. It’s definitely not remote (you’re close by to neighbors, and close to state routes), but is close to major attractions and trails and gets the job done :) Would definitely go again.
