  Manton Trails RV Park, Hotel & Campground

  Hidden gem on the west side

  This campground is centrally located to everything that’s going on, on the west side of the state. Whether it’s trail riding, Traverse City Cherry festival or hanging in the town of Manton. There is always something going on. Spacious, super clean bath house and on Saturday nights listen to live music right at your campsite!

  Traverse City State Park Campground

  Convenient and clean

  Very nice park, walkway to the public beach, paved path behind the grounds. Modern, clean bathhouse. Not a lot of privacy between spots, big mature trees all through the grounds. Right by municipal airport with lots of flight activity.

  Platte River Campground — Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore

  Beautiful area!

  The camping area is amazing. My group camped in the non electric section. Each area was set back from the road. Flat gravel pad. Small paved driveway for your car. It was peaceful. And absolutely dark at night. Perfect for star gazing. The comfort station was a short walk away. Clean bathrooms, shower areas, and a small room to wash dishes. You cannot wash dishes at your site. You must take precautions against bears. So food had to be locked in cars. We didn’t encounter bears. At the entrance is a canoe/tube business. You can float down the river to Lake Michigan.

  Barnes County Park Campground

  Beautiful Lake Access

  This Campground was very family-friendly. There is easy access to the beach with wide stairs. Many people enjoying rock collecting and watching the sunrise and sunset. The park was very clean and well kept with multiple bath houses.

  Young State Park Campground

  Unique Trails

  The campground was well maintained. The sites had adequate privacy and space. I really enjoyed the trails through Cedar Forest along Lake Charlevoix. More unique experience than just hiking through the woods.

  Tippy Dam State Recreation Area

  Great nature - noisy neighbors

  Our site was great, easily fit a 17 foot trailer and a tent. Trails down to the water were appreciated by our kids. Neighbors are pretty close all around but that didn't matter until our last night. Several new campers rolled in at 10pm and proceeded to throw an absolute rager of a party until 4am - on Labor Day weekend. So overall a great campground but I wish there had been enforcement of quiet time or some kind of consequence for such horrible camping manners.

  Camp David

  Wonderful, quiet location

  David and Gail were so friendly and welcoming, especially for the inconvenience of a last minute stay on Labor Day weekend! I had questions during the booking process and messaged them- I had a response in minutes. We had a quiet spot and were able to get some uninterrupted sleep after a long afternoon at the beach. 

  There are several places nearby with beach access (the turquoise water of Lake Michigan is beautiful), and lakes under 5 minutes away for fishing. For rockhounding, check out the beaches near Old Mission Lighthouse. Should we find ourselves back on the road to the UP, we'll be sure stop back in. Thanks again for being so accommodating!

  Bear Track Campground

  Rustic seclusion.

  No running water.
  No electricity.

  No flush toilets.

  No internet.
  No phone signal.

  Pure heaven.

  Rustic campsites. 50-100 yards from the river. Great water from the pump. Nice clean vault toilet. Very quiet at night. Peaceful and beautiful. We've gone ever year for the last 5 years. Going again next year.

  Highly recommend a satellite-based GPS unit like Garmin or TomTom in your car. I was serious when I said no phone signal so Google Maps ain't gonna' get you there.

  Fantastic Campground!

  The campground is a small, family friendly campground that has a lot of activities for both adults and kids. It is clean, has level sites and well maintained facilities.

  Tippy Dam State Recreation Area

  Great time

  The campsites are spacious and feature trails that lead directly to the Tippy Dam Backwater. There’s also convenient access for launching a boat on either the Manistee River or the backwaters side of the dam

  Chain-O-Lakes Campground

  Will be back!

  Our time at this campground has been exceptional. The grounds are kept very clean and tidy, the camp store had what we needed, and the atmosphere is very quiet and calming. Everything on our full hookup site worked good and our site itself was level.

  Our weather wasn’t very good, 66 and rainy, but we made the best of our time by going downtown Bellaire and visiting Shorts Brewing. The little town has some cute shops and is only 8 minutes from the campground.

  We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to book again next year.

  Wild Cherry RV Resort

  Quiet and peaceful

  This was a great campground, quiet and peaceful in the cherry orchard area of west Michigan, near Glen Arbor and Traverse City.

  Our site, #20, had an improved gravel parking area for camper with a finished concrete pad with a picnic table.

  Site, and whole campground was clean and well maintained. Our site was a full hookup but had one small issue where the drain dump was slightly uphill from the camper, so we had to work with the drain hose to empty tanks.

  Only other negative is that there are no trees for the majority of sites for shade cover.

  This was a good spot for a two night stay as it’s close to the Sleeping Bear National Dunes and also many local wineries.

  Have fun!

  Whiting County Park Campground

  Awesome Campground

  First timers. Very pleased with our stay. Reservation system is awesome, and easy to follow. Bathhouse was clean and fresh smelling. Even with all the rain we had during the stay, the bathhouse never got overly soiled. Water has a very heavy sulphor smell, but that's the way it goes with Michigan well water. Our Tear drop camper had fresh water on-board, so we were good to go. We've stayed at Young State Park across the way. Given what I know now, Whiting Park will be our"go to" park in the future. Again, Very Pleased.

  Manton Trails RV Park, Hotel & Campground

  Great location for orv trail access

  Great campground.  Booked two nights and had to request a third it was so perfect.   We went up because it advertised orv access right from campsite.  It’s really handy to not have to trailer over to the trsilheads.  Quiet, bug spaces, huge bathhouse. We will be going back!

  Grass Lake State Forest Campground

  Updated Info

  Updating this information. We live 3 miles from this camp. All MI State Forest Campgrounds are nor $20/night.

  There is not a RV dump or hookup of any kind in this campground. One could easily bring a 30 ft trailer but sites this size are limited.

  This camp is on the Betsie River and the Grass Lake Flooding. There is a gravel/sand ramp to launch smaller fishing boats. Great area to kayak and float tube. 1000's of acres of State Forest surrounding this spot with miles of trails for atv, cars, trucks and horses. There are no horst facilities at this camp.

  Vista Green RV Resort

  Large, beautiful campground

  Our site was $65.63 a night. (This was the average after receiving one night free for staying a week).

  We were in Site# 4A (premium site). We had Full hook- up with a blacktop pull-through.
  We travel towing a 14 foot trailer and were able to fit both in our pull through site along with my jeep.
  The site was easy to level.

  Our site was not shaded with limited trees. This was a smaller lot with our neighbors fairly close.

  The lot comes with a concrete patio with picnic table. There was not a fire ring since only propane fires are allowed.

  There is free WiFi. They do not offer Cable TV but there are many local channels.

  There is an adult pub-style game room with poker tables, a large tv, a table shuffle board, air hockey game, foosball table, and board games. There is a community catering kitchen located in their activities center.

  They do not provide garbage service at your site so you must walk to garbage dumpster. This can be a long distance for some.

  You are allowed to ride personal golf carts. They also allow you to rent golf carts. It is beneficial to have a golf cart to get around since it is a large campground. We have our own e-bikes which helped.

  They do have a large heated Swimming pool and an adults only hot tub. There is a fitness center.

  They have quite a few ponds throughout the campground.

  There is not a Playground. They offer pickleball courts.

  There is not a general store nor snack bar/restaurant on site.

  The streets are paved and good for riding bikes.

  This is solely an RV park. They do not have any cabins to rent or any tent areas.

  The showers are located in the activity center. These are typical stalls. There is a great area to hang clothes and store your toiletries in the shower stall. These are kept very clean.

  There is a laundry facility. There are approximately 4 washers and 4 dryers. They allow you to use cash or an app. It is approximately $2.25 to wash and $2 to dry a load.

  They do not have a fenced in dog park. There are areas to walk dogs though.

  Bugs/gnats were a small issue and bug spray was needed.

  There is supposedly a mowed trail to hike off of the campground (about 3 miles) but I was unable to locate it.

  Some fun things to do outside of the campground are the shops (Front Street) & water activities in Traverse City, the local wineries/vineyards, and the DNR Outdoor Shooting range (5 miles away & free to the public). We ate at Yankee Boy where all of the locals hangout. Excellent food (no alcohol served).

  Lake Dubonnet State Forest Campground

  Nice but camp host needed

  Large campground composed or 5 loops. Many have a trail leading to the water. Hiking and biking paths within the campground along with a nice boat ramp. Trash on sites and dirty outhouses along with lots of generators and after hour noise was a downside.

  Kampvilla RV Park

  Loved it so much, we reserved for another extended stay in a few months, during our stay!

  Our first time camping with the rig. Owners went above and beyond to assist with our set up. We also had to adjust our dates and they were very accommodating. Their assistance consisted of offering us an extra hose extension, another part for the sewer connection, and assisted with making sure Everything was working correctly before they left. Very clean campground, friendly, polite people all around, great pool and real nice “event” room. Nice clean (2) bathhouses, and one family bathhouse, also very nice. Horseshoes and shuffle board, big sandy playground for children. We only wish there were trails to walk on. But it’s close to Benzie, Frankfort, Manistee, Portage Lake. Dollar Tree nearly across the street in case you forgot anything. Northern Natural Cider house and Winery close by, plus Iron Fish Distillery! Kampvilla is the place to be! It will be our yearly destination. We began our season and will ‘near our end’ of season there!

  Mountain Valley Lodge & Campground

  Great Campground, huge sites!

  We just stayed here for 6 nights. Owners were welcoming and kind upon check in. The campground was very well maintained with a good amount of trees giving good shade outside.

  Sites are large well maintained.
  We stayed across the street from the bath house and the pool. Pool was chemically checked several times a day and it was so nice.

  Our kids loved the pool and the space to ride bikes.

  Will definitely be booking here again.

  Reasonable rates for the site and generous wood costs as well. They drive around almost nightly and will sell you wood right at your site if you're there. $10 for a wheel barrow full and they stack it for you!

  Highly recommend this campground.

  Empire Township Campground

  Great for tent camping!

  We have come to this campground every year since 2020 for a week with our travel trailer. We got lucky to find and opening at an electric site in their schedule and once you're in, you can reserve the same site on the same week the following year. We've had family members stay in tent sites nearby and they loved it.

  Green Lake Rustic South — Interlochen State Park

  Nice boating

  Green Lake Rustic- clean campground. Some sites are small, and you are on top of your "neighbors." Vault style toilets that get quite smelly. The boat ramp to Green Lake is well maintained. The parking lot is a bit small but doable. Good pan and bass fishing. The local grocery store is close, as well as a dollar store, mini golf, ice cream, and restaurants (if that's your thing).

  Young State Park Campground

  Favorite state park

  I love this state park. It is located right on beautiful lake charlevoix. The campground doesn't have any road noise. The beach is long and sandy and there are lots of hiking and biking trails.
