Manton Trails RV Park, Hotel & Campground sits on forested terrain near the Manistee River in northern Michigan. This privately managed facility provides both RV hookups and traditional camping options across sites that maintain tree coverage rather than creating an open parking lot layout. The campground features full amenities including electric and water hookups, clean restrooms with showers, and a dump station.
Sites accommodate various camping styles with drive-in, walk-in, and hike-in access available. Rates range from $25-$55 per night depending on site type and season. The property includes recreational facilities like basketball and volleyball courts, plus a beach area and fishing pond for families. Management maintains spacing between occupied sites when possible. Cell service varies by carrier, with Verizon performing better in mornings and Sprint in evenings according to recent visitors.
