Clean, friendly, accommodating!!!

Half of our party got to the office hours early and was able to check in and start setting up the site! The owners got up later and helped me in the store because I forgot some water, they were super accommodating! The bathrooms were clean, sites well maintained and gorgeous right on the River!!

Had a blast!!!

Tent sites are right on the river, they have a boat launch with rentals for boats, kayaks, and even a little fishing charter type deal if you'd like. Manistee river is very nice to kayak and go fishing. Great atmosphere, relaxed, everyone seemed to be on the same page while camping there. I look forward to going back here for sure!!!
