Sterling State Park Campground

This campground has easy access to the beach on Lake Erie.

There are full hookups as well as power only sites.

The park also has several public access areas and beaches.

Hiking and biking trails are also present and the bathroom facilities are clean and we'll maintained.

Some time in June you can expect May Flies aka Fish Flies. Plan accordingly.

Finally, I've never been to this park when it wasn't very windy.

This park will accommodate any size travel trailer? Fifth wheel camper of any kind, the pull throughs are huge. The park is enormous with lots of fishing activities. Great water, the only downfall is there's no shade. Showers and restrooms are updated and always clean.

Wonderful views from site 117. We booked the last spot of the night. It was an easy pull through with water, electric, and sewer hookup. You are right across from some good walking trails and walking distance to the beach. Lots of electric scooters, dogs, and bikes around.

The campground was nice and the neighbors were quiet. The dump station is at the first buildings. So fill up before you head down to the campground.

First two nights were perfect but then the may flies hatched (in mid june) and covered everything

Good size sites, friendly staff, great beach and boat launch

This is a gorgeous place and an amazing experience. The water is gorgeous and the amenities are plentiful. Be careful with the temperatures in the shower. Located close to lots of food and entertainment options.

Used Dyrt to scope out the site. Everything was accurate and the Michigan parks website is a breeze to use.

NOT ALL THE SITES UAVE FULL HOOKUPS. I did not realize this when booking. Nobody's fault but mine. Great fishing ponds, the sites are a little tights.

We stopped here for a quick overnight trip on our long family trip. The site was large and easy to back into. We had a view of the lake which was beautiful. Bathhouse was clean.

It was full sun

We walked the beach in the morning and found a bunch of beach glass which the kids loved

Very relaxing and quiet place. I couldn't believe how clean the bathrooms were and how often they took care of them. Amazing trails to walk on and fishing piers everywhere.

My family and I love this park. Quiet with large level sites. Everything from back ins with only electrical to pull throughs with full hook-ups.

The camping area is nice. It is a little open for our like but there good activities you can do with the kids or pets.

Nice state park with clean bathrooms. Bike and walking trails. Also has a smaller lake good for kayaking and fishing. It has a boat ramp to put into Lake Erie. Not a lot of shade on the sites!

The Good: modern bathrooms, newer and kept clean. The sites all have power and level paced pad. Decent sized. A view of the lake isn’t too shabby. The beach with big shade trees is decent. 

The Bad: sites are full sun, which gets hot! Lots of litter on the beach, and Lake Erie isn’t exActly the cleanest. Also, this campground attracts weekend partiers so if you want privacy or peace and quiet, I would look elsewhere. Nestled between the looming smokestacks of a coal power plant and a nuclear plant, this isn’t your typical woodsy, scenic park.

Had 11 kids between sites with bathrooms n private showers nice and clean making our 1 bathroom ok and not overused...beautiful beach and lil private cove... Took our blow up boats to enjoy some extra fun....had great staff assist us with changing sites and purchasing firewood..very friendly n professional..

Went last year for a family reunion so to speak. We stayed in a tent at a campsite. Campsites are not necessarily spaced out but adequate space for your tents, RVs, trucks, etc. Beautiful view of the water, however the beach is usually busy so it can be difficult to find a clean spot. Not too many shady areas so be sure to bring cover or shade if it’s a hot day! Has modern bathroom access and it usually pretty clean. Easy access to park and playground. Bike and walking trails can be accessed as well.

Good for a short, quick getaway for a short weekend.

This is our first time at Sterling State Park, the campsites are very close to each other however, it’s been nice so far! The view of the lake is beautiful!! Bathrooms/showers are clean. There’s not many trees at all so nothing to block the winds on a windy day. But we will be coming back again! Our kids loved it! Great fishing, bike trails, playground, and beach! There are some smoke towers from a nearby plant, but just another thing that makes this place unique.

Campground is right by the power plant, but also have beautiful views of the lake. There is not much shade and if lot is full you are very close to other campers.

Nice for a family camp. Beach could be cleaner. Over all it’s your vary basic campground

Was great for a state park. Lots where we'll spaced. Bathroom clean. Need bigger beach

Sites are nice and large paved slabs, most trees are immature offering little shade. Beach is kept fairly clean and raked often. Bathrooms and showers are good.

Nice state park with typical family camp amenities. Used a pop up camper, some shade trees but very limited (assume full sub sites). Some hiking and biking trails. Swimming if the lake is not with bloom (which happens a lot) but is close to sites. Normally I am not very comfortable letting my kids swim here due to the water pollution and bloom). There is some wildlife around on the trails and a sandy beach to play on though.

open space, good for RV camping. access to Lake Erie...goog fishing.

Sterling is an interesting park, nestled between the Fermi nuclear power plant and the coal powered DTE plant it makes for an unique experience. The sites are all in full sun, with not much privacy between them, but most campers are respectful. The beach is a short walk from any site, mostly sandy with small rocks occasionally. There is a boat launch which is extremely popular and the bass and walleye fishing can't be beat. No boat, no problem. The park has several fishing piers as well as a kayak launch into a small inlet which is navagatable all the way to the beach, approximately two miles. There is a bike path that will take you all the way to the Historic Rasin River Battlefield and then to downtown Monroe. Additionally, all of the sites in this park have 30amp electric while also boasting quite a few sites with full hookup. Every site has a blacktop pad for parking or trailer setup, with many pull thru sites available.
