Best RV Parks & Resorts near Eckerman, MI

"We had site 29 as it was the last available one online and it was a huge pull through site," notes one visitor about Kritter's Northcountry Campground. RV travelers frequently use Eckerman, Michigan as a top destination for their RV or motorhome. Bay Mills Casino RV Campground in Brimley provides full hookup sites with cable TV and WiFi for $29 per day, operating from May 1 to October 30. Tiki RV Park & Campground in St. Ignace offers pull-through sites with 30-amp service, though some travelers report discrepancies between advertised and actual hookup capabilities. Aune-Osborn Campground in Sault Ste. Marie features electric hookups and water access with 30-amp service, accommodating RVs from May 15 to October 15. Most parks in the region can handle larger rigs, with Bay Mills specifically noted for spacious sites that easily fit 42-foot fifth wheels.

Seasonal operation limits RV camping options during winter months, with most parks closing between mid-October and early May. Cell service varies significantly across the region, with Verizon users reporting one to two bars at Tahquamenon Falls State Park campgrounds and stronger connections at Straits State Park. Dump stations are available at several locations including Straits State Park, which maintains separate facilities for its upper and lower campgrounds. According to reviews, some parks have challenging access roads with tight turns and low-hanging branches that may require careful navigation for larger motorhomes. Laundry facilities are available at multiple locations, though prices vary from $1.25 per load at Bay Mills to significantly higher rates at other parks. Pet policies differ between campgrounds, with most allowing pets but some imposing restrictions.

    Mackinaw City / Mackinac Island KOA

    Typical KOA

     If you've camped at a KOA before, then you know what you're getting here. Easy on, easy off I-75. It's close to the interstate, but the noise was never intrusive. Mostly because of the stiff wind blowing out of the North. 

      The sites are tight, particularly the inside pull throughs. The back in sites are more spacious, though that's relative. Site 7 is a very spacious back in site. 1-6 are by Trails End Road, but it isn't really that busy or noisy. I would get a back in site, especially if you can get away with 30 Amp service. 16-20F  are back in sites with 50 Amp. There are some deluxe pull throughs with patio & grill on site. There are some extra long pull through sites.

       There are the usual KOA amenities like a heated pool, playground, a game area & bike rental. There's a nice hiking trail in the back. It takes you to the bike trail, so back track back to the campground unless you want to walk on the bike trail/road. 

     What makes KOAs & this KOA special are the clean bathrooms & showers. It's always a pleasure to know that a shower will be KOA clean!

     Staff was courteous & efficient. They delivered ice & wood to your site. 

    This is a good base camp for the area. I would stay again if in Mackinaw City!

    Straits State Park Campground

    Midge Season

    Nice campground, friendly staff. The campground I stayed in had grass sites with picnic tables and fire ring. Central hydrants. “Kitchen Sink” for use at the latrine. The individual shower stalls are very clean and can get a little steamy. There is an easy trail through the park that takes you to two overlooks. St Ignace is a few minutes away.

    It’s a toss up, nice weather = midges, cold weather = wind and cold. My first day was cold, rainy and windy. Second day was nice and sunny.

    Tiki RV Park & Campground

    Coin toss experience

    Rustic campground on a steep hill overlooking Lake Huron. Website makes promises campground doesn't deliver. We reserved 50 amp full hook up. We were charged an additional $15 to guarantee our site. We arrived today to find a tight sloping site with only 30 amp service for our 34 ft motorhome. Upon calling the office, the very young woman who answered, first of all, could not locate our reservation even though a packet and map were waiting outside for us. Second, she asks which site, fumbles around, and finally declares "well some sites are 50 amp and some are only 30 amp. Can you spell your name again for me?" This location is close to everything in this nice town, so if you come here to stay you will be paying premium site pricing and spinning the wheel of chance as to whether it will be electric only, electric and water, 30 amp full hookups or 50 amp full hookups, because the website says one thing and reality on site is altogether different.

    Mackinaw City / Mackinac Island KOA

    Great park near Mackinac Island ferries

    Our site was $99.89 night.

    We were in Site# 98. We had Full hook- up with a gravel 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 (many were shaded though). This was a smaller lot with our neighbors fairly close.

    This lot (a premium lot) comes with a concrete patio with a round table with four chairs, two Adirondack chairs and a fire pit and a charcoal box grill.

    It is an easy access to the campground from highway -(approximately 1 mile from highway).

    There is free WiFi. They offer Cable TV and there are many channels.

    There is not a community outdoor kitchen or community fire pit.
    They sell wood for $7 a bundle.

    They pickup your garbage at your site daily.

    You are allowed to ride personal golf carts. They also allow you to rent regular bicycles and e-bikes. They do not provide golf cart rentals. There is really not a need to have a Golf cart because it is a smaller campground.

    They do have a Swimming pool. There is a Playground. They also offer Gaga ball,horseshoe, and corn hole. There is a Reading lending library and board games to borrow.

    They have a great general store. There is an electric car charging station. They sell propane.

    There is not a snack bar/restaurant on site.

    The streets are gravel so not great for riding bikes.

    There are great places to ride bikes outside of campground. From the campground, there is a nature trail that you can take your bike that leads you to the. North Western State Trail.

    They have cabins for rent and tent areas.

    They have one shower house. The shower house has individual showers. Toilets with sinks are in a shared bathroom. These are kept very clean.

    There is a laundry facility. It is a cash only facility. There are approximately 5 washers and 5 dryers. It is approximately $2.50 to wash and $1.50 to dry a load.

    They have a fenced in dog park.

    Bugs (mosquitoes/flies)did not seem to be an issue.

    There were trails to hike off of the campground.

    Some fun things to do outside of the campground are go to the beach (1 mile away); visit Mackinac Island (both major ferries will transport you for free - this KOA provides you information for Shepler’s Ferry). Both ferries offer packages that include horse drawn carriage rides, Fort Mackinac admission, Island Hotel Admission, Butterfly House admission, Mystery Town admission, and Parking options). There is a Jack Pine Lumberjack show.

    USFS 3536 Dispersed Site

    OK for a night

    We were a little confused here, as we thought the camping spots were the concrete pads leading up to the old airfield. But there are big rocks blocking the way from Rd 3536 to the airfield, so I don’t know if that’s a recent addition or what. There’s a large concrete pad on the west side of the rocks, and when we got there there was a nice looking (not sketchy) travel trailer set up for long term camping. Lots of trucks parked everywhere with trailers; they had hauled their ATVs in and were out riding for the day. They came back on their ATVs in the late afternoon, hung out for a few hours, then left (except for the trailer). All surprisingly quiet and respectful. 

    Zero cell service with Verizon but ATT had good service, mostly. It would randomly drop now and then but it would come back. We found a good spot to tuck into for the night, while staying out of the way of all the trucks parked everywhere. Very quiet and serene.

    This is dispersed camping so of course no amenities whatsoever. Please handle your waste appropriately and let's keep this area clean.

    Monocle Lake

    Great Rustic Campground

    Although this is a great family campground, most bigger Campers and Rvs can't stay here. There are many trees too close to roadways for turning corners, and many branches are hanging low overhead. We did manage after many attempts, to gently get our 42 foot fifth wheel toy hauler into a spot. We loved the warmer water of the inland lake for swimming with the kids, and the scenic hiking trail around the lake was great. We would definitely stay again in a smaller camper.
