    Several RV parks operate in the Hale area, accommodating vehicles of various sizes. Northern Bear Paw RV Park in Tawas City features 57 sites with full hookups including 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections. The park remains open year-round and can accommodate larger motorhomes with its big-rig friendly design. Tawas River RV Park, operating from May through mid-October, provides full hookups with 50-amp service and pull-through sites for easier positioning. Loranger Pines RV Park in West Branch includes electrical hookups, water connections, and sewer hookups, with sites that can accommodate larger recreational vehicles. "Our site was level and adequately spacious. The campground has a fabulous rec room for kids, although we had none with us," noted one visitor about their week-long stay.

    Many area campgrounds maintain gravel pads rather than concrete, which may require leveling equipment in some cases. Dump stations are available at most established parks, including Northern Bear Paw, Tawas River, and Ogemaw County Park. Cell service varies throughout the region, with stronger signals near larger towns and potentially spotty coverage in more remote locations. Fall represents a popular camping season when parks fill quickly, particularly around weekends. Pet policies differ between locations, with most allowing pets at campsites but restricting them from certain communal areas. During peak summer months, advance reservations are strongly recommended as parks like Thunder Bay Golf and RV Resort can reach capacity, especially on holiday weekends.

      Harrisville State Park Campground

      A great pet-friendly getaway

      We rented their pet-friendly cabin.  It consists of a single room, two bunk beds, a table mounted to the wall, two chairs, a mini fridge, a microwave, coffee pot, a wall heater and a wall-mounted fan.  Nothing fancy, but serviceable.  There's a site with a picnic table, grill, and fire pit, connected to the cabin, as well as a decent sized front porch.  Also nearby the dumping station, but this isn't as bad as it could be, at least during our midweek stays ((We've done two weekday stays.)  There's a patch of grass across the drive, where puppy potty bags are dispensed, for easy bathroom breaks with the dogs, and it is also close to the campground host site and firewood vending machine.  The firewood is really decent quality, and the machine accepts cards, which is nice, compared to other parks.  The bathrooms/showers are a short walk away, and are really a lot nicer than most state park facilities.  Several accessible/family restrooms are available, offering shower seats, benches, a dual height showerhead, sink, and toilet with grab bars, all in one lockable room.  Several campsites are one the waterfront.  As other's have mentioned, the beach is seeing some significant changes, due to historically high lake levels, which has forced several campsites to close, and the designated dog beach to be inaccessible.  They have alleviated this by shifting the pet-friendly beach area to the site of the closed campsites.  It is still an amazingly beautiful place to just sit in awe of the beauty of Lake Huron.  There is a two mile nature trail that winds through the outer part of the park, and it supplied a great hike with our dogs.  The park itself is within a reasonable walk to the local grocery store, utilizing a paved path that leads from the campground to the town.  We just love it there.  The only thing holding back from a five star is the beach area's struggles.  But that doesn't even feel fair, because there's little that humans can do at this point, to change that.

      Harrisville State Park Campground

      Was pretty nice for the price

      We stayed here on a Tuesday and Wednesday night. We were at site 96 right on the water. It was gorgeous and clean and there were lots of spaces. The bathroom wasn’t bad but the water was cold. The showers were nice and have a private toilet in them as well. The fire pits are nice and every site comes with an electric hookup. Tons and tons of paved hiking trails. Pet friendly. Best part was checkout was at 1pm instead of 10am. Felt like it was more a family campground though so probably won’t be revisiting myself. $30/night for a tent site and wood is available on site for $7/bundle. Wood comes from a “vending machine” so it’s always dry and ready to burn which came in handy durning the rain. I did also see an area for water and sewer dumping as well.

      Oscoda-Tawas KOA

      Great Campground

      My wife and I stayed at the Oscoda/Tawas KOA for 7 nights in the first part of Sept 2021 at RV site # 10.  The site was level and adequately spacious.  The campground has a fabulous rec room for kids, although we had none with us, and an outside playground with a jungle gym and other amenities.  There are also cabins that we did not see inside but that appear to be well appointed.  The park staff are friendly and were very helpful at check in time and in giving us information about long term stays.  They also provide accommodation for storing RVs for those who book for the season.

      Harrisville State Park Campground

      Harrisville State Park in Harrisville, MI. Awesomeness.

      I believe myself to be a pretty tough critic. With that said, this was our first camping experience within our home state. 

      People: Everyone was nice, and helpful! This is a great look for us newbies. 

      Campsite: Phenomenal. We were in a site that was just a few steps to the beach! Though we didn’t use them, the picnic table and fire pit was nicely placed. 

      Environment& Amenities: Someone’s always driving around in the cart for assistance.  You can call or hit up the welcome/check-in center as well. A company that sells wood via delivery of half cords or greater, but has a vending machine of 1/4 cords or bundles. Restroom facilities are well maintained. A few trails for walking and or cycling/boarding.

      So far so good. We will definitely be back!

      Tawas Point State Park Campground

      Beautiful State Park

      The park is very clean. Some sites are small, some are larger. Have visited many times. Fun interpretive programs for adults and kids. Beautiful beach to spend the day on. Located close to town. Lots of areas to walk as well. Not pet friendly though, they are allowed at the sites, but not on the beach.

      Cut River Dispersed Campsite

      Meh

      Fairly easy to get to... last couple miles you'll want to pay attention to ruts and potholes. Tiny loop at the end, with room for 6-8 tent campers or 3-4 small travel trailers. Not big rig friendly. Little buggy, very muggy. Surprised to see other people here. 3 other parties and myself. Quiet, though. Okay place for a one nighter.

      Sleeper State Park Campground

      A nice state park

      A nice campground with two loops. Can be tricky getting a large RV in especially during bigger holidays but the sites are large and you can park you camper a few different ways. Decent trails. Beach access across the road. There is a pet friendly section of the beach. Lots of pets here. The bathrooms in the east loop are older and not that great but the other loop has a nice modern bathroom. Sites are mostly flat more so on the eastern loop. We had a nice visit.

      Tawas Point State Park Campground

      Great park with a lighthouse

      East Tawas is a place I've visited most of my adult life. There's some walking trails here, the lighthouse is a close walk/bike from anywhere in the park. Getting to town is a few minute drive, or a very long bike ride on the road.

      Like most Michigan State Parks, your site has electric (30/50) only. Water spigots are located in various spots throughout the park. I advise you fill your freshwater tank at home, or when you arrive, at the dump station.

      There's a few ADA sites with concrete pads, all others are grass. Comfort stations are in good shape.

      Beaches are, like most in Michigan, eroded due to high water levels, but still useable.

      You can watch sunrise on the Lake Huron side, sunsets over Tawas Bay.

      I've never really interacted with staff here, but never needed to. Park is clean. There can be lineups at the dump station.

      A few sites are pull thru. Most back-in.

      If you have a vehicle, there's many places to see in the area, like Lumberman's Monument. Tawas has a nice farmers market, worth a visit for fresh veg and other items.

    Guide to Hale

    Camping near Hale, Michigan provides varied terrain options for outdoor recreation in the northeast part of Michigan's lower peninsula. Located in Iosco County, Hale serves as a gateway to the AuSable River system and nearby Lake Huron shoreline, with most campgrounds maintaining seasonal operations from April through October due to Michigan's winter conditions.

    What to do

    River recreation opportunities: Alcona Park offers access to the AuSable River system where visitors can kayak and observe wildlife. According to one camper, "The river is beautiful and we have seen Eagles and Cranes several times on our trip" at Alcona Park.

    Biking trails: Browns Landing RV Park provides convenient access to regional bike paths. A visitor notes, "There is a bike path that goes all the way into Tawas. About 9 miles. It goes thru the woods and is just lovely with jasmine and lilac bushes and views of Lake Huron" at Browns Landing RV Park.

    Golfing options: For campers who enjoy golf, Thunder Bay Golf and RV Resort combines camping with course access. One reviewer mentions "There are several 'packages' including camping and golf (if that's what you enjoy) and at times you can take a horse drawn Elk tour or participate in a Murder Mystery weekend."

    What campers like

    Scenic water views: Many campers appreciate waterfront sites in the region. A visitor to Northern Bear Paw RV Park shared, "This place is gorgeous. Owners have done a great job with the property. Pine trees left intact. It sits on the Au Gres River trail to the river with seating, picnic table and fire pit."

    Rural atmosphere: The countryside setting attracts many visitors seeking quiet surroundings. One camper described their experience: "Traveling in from Indiana, the country side relaxes your big city anxieties while calming the busy lifestyle in your rear view mirror."

    Fishing opportunities: The lakes and rivers around Hale offer productive fishing. A visitor to Alcona Park reported excellent catches: "caught lots of fish from walleye to crappie, even a 6.3lb small mouth bass!! very nice campground that I will continue to camp at and recommend!!"

    What you should know

    Limited connectivity: Cell service can be limited in this rural area. A camper at Alcona Park warned, "Cell phone reception is nill here so do not plan to make or receive calls!"
