McGinnis Lake Modern Campground at Holly Recreation Area offers cabin accommodations with fire rings and picnic tables at each site. The cabins provide basic shelter with varying levels of amenities depending on the location. "Just a quick overnight tent camp with my son. Tent sites are relatively well spaced out and clean. Fire rings and picnic tables at each site. Cabins available for rent as well," noted one visitor about Holly Recreation Area. Pontiac Lake Recreation Area and Seven Lakes State Park also feature cabin options within a short drive of Fenton, with most providing electricity but limited indoor amenities.

Rustic cabins predominate in the region, with some requiring a short hike to access. The Southfork Rustic Cabin at Waterloo Recreation Area features solar lighting and a wood stove for heat, with a small kitchen unit and table for eating. "We stayed in the Southfork Rustic Cabin at the end of Feb and it was lovely much needed get away. The cabin was semi modern (solar lighting) but only a wood stove for heat," shared one camper. Bald Mountain Recreation Area offers two rustic cabins available year-round that sleep 10-15 people without electricity or heat but equipped with large wood-burning stoves.

Most cabin accommodations require guests to bring their own bedding, pillows, and cooking supplies. Camp Dearborn's resort cabins have been noted for their concrete floors and minimal furnishings, with one review cautioning about the lack of mattresses: "A dirty cabin with a concrete floor and nothing to sleep on." Kitchen facilities vary widely between properties, from basic fire rings to small kitchenettes in more developed cabins. Firewood is typically available for purchase at campground offices or from nearby vendors, though quality can vary. The Holly Campground and Groveland Oaks County Park maintain on-site stores for basic provisions, while larger grocery options require a short drive to nearby towns.
