Best Cabin Camping near Grass Lake, MI

297 Reviews

Waterloo Recreation Area offers multiple cabin accommodation options within a short drive of Grass Lake. The Waterloo Portage Lake Modern campground provides cabins with electric hookups, picnic tables, and fire rings. Holiday RV Campground and Apple Creek Campground & RV Park also feature cabin rentals with varying amenities. "We had a great time here. Some very beautiful scenery. Good size lots with nice open spaces and trees for cover," noted one visitor about the Portage Lake area. Most cabins include standard furnishings but specifics vary by location, with some offering more rustic experiences and others providing more comprehensive amenities.

While some cabins operate year-round, others are available only from April through October. Reservations are typically required, especially during summer months when availability becomes limited. Pet policies vary by location, with most campgrounds allowing dogs on leash. Holiday RV Campground receives positive reviews for its family-friendly amenities, with one camper mentioning it's "family owned and very nicely kept up" with "plenty of spots open for short visits." The Waterloo Recreation Area cabins provide access to hiking trails, lakes, and outdoor activities regardless of season.

Most cabins include basic furnishings but require visitors to bring their own bedding, linens, and cooking supplies. Campground stores at Holiday RV Campground and Apple Creek offer limited provisions including firewood and essential items. The proximity to I-94 makes resupplying convenient, though planning ahead is recommended. Cooking facilities typically include fire rings with grates, though some cabins may offer more extensive cooking options. Waterloo Sugarloaf Modern campground, also part of the recreation area, provides additional cabin options with similar amenities within the region and is described by a visitor as "very well maintained with a nice park and clean bathrooms."

    Bathrooms were dated and we arrived Monday after Labor Day so I can't judge them. They had a FULL HOUSE on Labor Day per the front gate. I was very impressed there was no garbage at campsites and picked up very well.

    Waterloo Sugarloaf Modern — Waterloo Recreation Area

    A Wonderful Winter Getaway

    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. Small kitchen unit with table for eating. You had to hike in about a quarter mile to get there, and it sleeps four people with two bunk beds. There is an outside vault toilet behind the cabin. Lots of trails connecting the cabin to the rest of the park. Cheap too! Only $68 per night.

    Harrison Lake State Park Campground

    Quiet place to get away

    We have been here a few times. Really enjoy the secluded sites and the lake. It’s a small campground but it’s clean and quiet. Most sites don’t have water hookups but they do have electric. There isn’t much to do outside of the campground but there is a nice lake with canoe and kayak rentals. Very pet friendly and even has a dog beach.

    Lake Hudson Recreation Area

    Beautiful Nature, Dark Sky Rustic Camping

    Lake Hudson is a dark sky preserve full of trees, nature and a beautiful lake. The camping sites come with an electric plug in, a nice fire ring and a picnic table. They are cute sites. Most are not by the lake. There is a dumpster. The facilities are rustic. The facilities are port a potty type with wooden walls and cement floor. No showers. A hand pump well for water. The swimming part of the lake requires a drive. The Lake is beautiful with a sand beach, no wake boating and grills. However it is rustic so there is goose poo. The woods are beautiful. There is hunting. We had heard that some people partied there but the night we were there it was quiet and people were respectful. We had a beautiful fire and dutch oven dinner. We saw one cute racoon who ran away when I reacted. We were worried about mosquitos but we only saw one.

    Seven Lakes State Park Campground

    Fab beach

    This is a fabulous campground! There are over 20 sites, about half of which are located lake side (not directly on the lake, but there are little paths that lead you there and you can somewhat see the water from these sites.) There is a boat launch on one end of campground and the amazing beach on the other. The water is clear and warm (perfect lake for swimming) and there is both sand and grassy areas on the fairly large beach. The beach also offers picnic tables and benches. The only negative aspect I can see about this campground is that the sites are right on top of each other, so if you have a loud group or a generator next to you, it is noisy. But most campgrounds have sites set real close together, so you will find this pretty much everywhere. Def camp here! About an hours drive from a Pictured Rocks National Park. There are no showers or running water. Camp hosts were very nice, helpful, & welcoming.

    Sleepy Hollow State Park Campground

    Beautiful Park

    Rangers working the area are very friendly. Many options to choose from in terms of camping, from rustic, tent to fully functional cabin lodging. The park is very large, so it is always good to have a vehicle able to drive to the trails and beach. Campsites are decent sized, can fit probably 3 four person tents per site, which includes a concrete firepit and picnic table. In the north campsites there is a lot of tree covering, and there are a lot of walnut trees that were shedding a lot this time of the year. Bathrooms are well spaced between the campsites you, and have showers along with some vending machines outside of them. Spigots are scattered throughout and are very accessible. Be sure to bring at least 100 feet of extension chord if you want electricity, because the power ports are not as accessible from some areas. Overall very pleasant campground.

    Harrison Lake State Park Campground

    Nice park for Northwest Ohio

    We rented a yurt as a local weekend escape. Our kids loved the yurt. It was nice with a little mini fridge and 4 double beds. Campground showers and bathrooms are clean. It is one of the only state parks in northwest Ohio, a beautiful little spot nestled in farmland of Ohio. The lake is nice for swimming and there are bike rentals which was fun as well. We did not use it, but there is a dog beach as well. Sites are crowed and close together.
