    Jellystone Park North Port Huron

    Very disappointing, bored kids in an expensive campground.

    The store staff and lifeguards were great! My disappointments:

    * 5:30 PM We were in our screened in porch when a golf car blaring rap music was cleaning out all the fire pits. Maintenance crew did not treat guests with respect.

    * Grounds teams were cleaning up sites, again loud work due to closing down.

    * Internet was completely down due to"an electrician accidentally cut the wires". They were not planning on fixing this for the season.

    * Slides were closed or not working (due to wind, though there was VERY little wind), even the lifeguards were hard pressed to give us that answer. It was obvious they did not want to run them the last week they were open.

    * Pool heater was broken and they were not going to fix it, it was too cold to swim. The pool stayed empty.

    * The mini gold course was torn up in several places. The ponds and water areas were not working. Entire course has been neglected. Golf clubs are beaten up.  My two 10 year old grandchildren were bored, we played board games.  I was so disappointed!

    The campground was closing the water sports, it was the last week open.  Earlier season may be better, though the gold course was real bad.

    Port Crescent State Park Campground

    Beautiful views

    Beautiful, newly renovated park with a great beach and beach access.

    Be advised that the sites closer to the beach are very sandy. Larger campers may get stuck, especially after a rainstorm.

    Forester Park Campground

    Such a loud place at night!

    This is such a nice park and we really do love it, however due to quiet time not being followed, we are going to find a new one next year. Two years in a row we have not been able to sleep more than a couple of hours. This year a large group next to us had flood lights shining on our tent until 3 in the morning both nights along with loud music. No one was available to enforce the quiet hours and the lack of sleep ruined our trip. We love everything else about this place and they keep it very clean.

    Tawas Point State Park Campground

    Terrific location

    This is a beautiful and picturesque park. The bathrooms are clean and well maintained.

    Sites are large in general with plenty of room for activities.

    The pet friendly beach is fantastic for dogs as the water is very shallow and let's them be active.

    The access roads on the loop are narrow, so you may need to take some care of if you have a large vehicle.

    There's also a kids playground and volleyball court.

    Bay City State Park Campground

    Bustling, clean and friendly

    Easy friendly check-in. Firewood prices are cheaper than on roads in. Small and large bags of ice at a good price. Great for families. Clean facilities. They do spray for mosquitoes, so that wasn't too bad at all even in the heat of August. We stayed at 106, the description was on point, level and shaded. Campers were super friendly. We had no complaints about the campground itself but it would be nice if there was an RV lights out policy at night. It's really hard to sleep in a tent when your neighbors RV "porch" light is on literally all night shining in the tent while your neighbors are sound asleep in RV. We had to ask our neighbors politely to turn their outside LED light strips off the second night. They were great about it but, didn't seem to realize it would bother tent campers next to them.

    Bay City State Park Campground

    Crowded and inconvenient

    So, this campground looks nice at first, with lots of trees on the sites. However, once you really start looking at them, none have a camping pad, so it’s random parking on the grass. Lots of moving around to get your electric hooked up to the shared and oddly placed power poles. Make sure to come with an extension cord - one member of our party had their power halfway into their neighbor’s site through a bunch of bushes. The sites near the entrance are very crowded together and filled with large loud groups. (please don’t park any extra vehicles hanging out over the road…) And cleaning the bathrooms at 8:30 and 9:30 in the MORNING? Bummer for tenters. It’s ok for a quick stop, but wouldn’t want to stay here too long. I would expect better from a State Park.
