  • Mosquitoes: Be prepared for bugs, especially in the summer. A visitor at Algonac State Park Campground warned, “The mosquitoes were extremely bad this year so I don’t fault the campground for that but we couldn’t even have a bonfire due to how bad they were.”
  • Limited Amenities: Some campgrounds may lack certain amenities. A reviewer at Bruin Lake Campground noted, “The only downside was that there were only pit toilets.”

Tips from RVers:

  • Check Site Size: Make sure your RV fits the site. A reviewer at Holly Recreation Area advised, “I wouldn’t pick site 93 however as the pavement is sloped and the whole site is sloped quite steeply.”
  • Bring Extra Cords: Some sites may require long extension cords. A camper at Bishop Lake Campground mentioned, “Recommend to have extension cord for some sites, as plug in can be far.”
