Visit Hoeft every year for group camping weekend. Perfect weather, nice spacing of sites, great access to the beach. Site 33 is not a favorite. Quite small, backed up to poison ivy and quite close to a neighbor site.
Guide
nice campground with plenty of woods and water. rustic sites could be a little more leveled off but not awfully bad. they have full, semi and rustic sites. camped here 4 times and enjoyed my time. PRO'S- great fishing, playgrounds for kids, great for riding bikes, sites are clean and many have good space for larger campers, staff is friendly and reliable. CONS- showers need more pressure, roads can get extremely dusty when it's dry, "beach" is small and rocky and on a slop which is difficult to walk on due to too many rocks in what little sand there is however the whole lakeshore is rocks so wear water shoes, while it didn't bother me, it can get a little loud at nite, after 10pm "quite time" but nothing really serious, some rustic sites could use some dirt to level them up but manageable, rustic sites, IMO, are a little expensive at $20 a night but I've camped at others that were $40! summing my review up, I enjoyed every time I camped here! 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!!

This place was fantastic. We stayed in the Lakeside cabins. Amazing views! We went kayaking, mountain biking, hiking and fishing. The wildlife is plentiful and the lake is full of fish. The staff are fantastic. If we needed anything, they were there in minutes. Always courteous and friendly. Will definitely be back
GuideI enjoyed this campsite. Maybe it was because of it being a Sunday night, but it didn’t feel very crowded and was fairly quiet. It’s close to the water (just a short walk over the dunes so you can’t actually see the lake from your site.) I had electric and the bathrooms had showers, though they definitely could use an update. The only thing that could have made this place better was if they allowed dogs on the beach! I was traveling alone and would have loved to have walked the beach with my pup.

Nice park. Can feel a little tight on some spaces, especially if your neighbor sprawls over the lines. Restrooms could use a little improvement (like replacing the crappy doors leading into the building) and some maintenance, but are clean. Being on a point between Lake Huron & Tawas Bay, there's almost always some breeze. There's beaches on both sides of the point. Staff friendly. Like most MI State Park sites, it's electric only. Tawas has no (as of this review) FHU sites. There's the Tawas Point Lighthouse here, which you can climb for a few bucks. Nice little gift shop next to it. It can get really packed here on weekends, and the day use gets closed because of being too full.
Big rigs, note that the roads can be tight, especially when inconsiderate campers crowd the road, cause you know... It's all about them.
All in all, it's one of our favorite state parks.
Hit Klenow's Market in town. They do great sandwiches!
ScoutI think jewel lake is pretty good because they have good campsites. I like the dog, they have an island, you can go on can't sleep on there, but you can go on it. They have a beach, they have a bridge, so you can fish on good water to go swimming, you can drive a boat, you can go on a kayaking on a jet ski, any type of water boats the camp site it's pet friendly perfect for campers or pull behinds tense, they're ok, for motorhome\ RV's but it's pretty good.

We left Tawas Point campground and went here. The day use beach bathroom was our first stop...not the cleanest. But the beach was nice as were the trails. Once in the camp itself, we loved how much better it was than Tawas. It's more spread out and I didn't feel like people were staring at me. Our site was perfect. We had some shade, perfect to park under as we car camped. Spacious lot and a trail connected us to a grassy area, boathouse, and beach. PERFECT spot if you are a paddleboarder/kayaker/etc. No wake lake is awesome for paddle sports! Our bathhouse was very clean. We will DEFINITELY be coming back!
TravelerIt is very nice and extremely clean. However it is kind of cramped. Sites feel close and everyone was very nosey. Pet beach is nice. Water is beautiful. Convenient location. People didn't listen to rules such as quiet hour and let their badly behaved dogs run loose. Bath house is extremely nice! All in all, I would camp here on an off day/season.

Campers Cove in Alpena is so nice! Some great things include: putt putt, most sites are on water, there is a fishing pond, a camp store, nice workers, they pick up trash at the camp sites, they will drain your camper tanks for you at your site for $10, there are boats and kayaks to rent, indoor pool, it’s only 15 minutes from Lake Huron, and the bathrooms and showers are nice compared to other places I’ve been to! We were there for a big family camping trip, we had 6 sites, and we reserved again for next year!

We stayed in the small cabin #186 which is right across from the park hosts. The first night we were there we were sitting around our campfire - it was around 10:45 pm. It was myself (grandma) my 24 year old son and my five year old grandson. We were talking normally or slightly quieter because the campground has a 10 pm quiet curfew. Out of nowhere, a guy comes storming up to our campfire with a flashlight in our faces - scared the crap out of all of us - I instinctively said who are you and why are you coming at us?! He said we were way too loud and that he could hear us 4 or five sites down - I had to ask him if he was an employee because I was about ready to call for help. He said he was an employee and again repeated he could hear us from “way down there” pointing in some direction I had no idea because it was so dark out. I walked one site over and asked my son to say something and I absolutely could not hear him. I was so mad we almost backed up and left. The next day the Park Hosts who sit outside all day had another employee come warn us about chopping tree limbs down? I was flabbergasted. We collected some kindle/branches that were ON THE GROUND. When I addressed with the Park Hosts they lied and said they had no idea why we were told this. We saw the employee later and she said the park hosts told her we were cutting branches - and to come tell us to stop. It was the most bizarre experience I have yet to have camping and I have camped a lot - I read a google review from 4 days before our visit that said the same exact thing. Avoid this park - we left early needless to say.

Our RV GPS brought us right to the golf course where you check in both for the campground(CG) and resort lodging, which is made up of a lodge and cabins. Check-in was easy and we were escorted to pull through site 7, which we chose for our second stay because of the course view. The sites are decently spaced in this small CG. There are cable connections but they do not have cable anymore, but you do get a decent variety of OTA channels. There are some trees, but you can also get a clear shot of the sky for satellite. We got a solid two bars on Verizon and were able to connect to the internet using our MiFi. There are no restroom facilities in the CG but all the sites are FHU. We’d stayed here two years ago when COVID restrictions severely limited activities. We noticed that the restaurant and the elk ride dinners were back up and running. One drawback is that they do not allow you to take a golf cart back to the CG that’s about 100 yards from the clubhouse to pick up and return your clubs. The resort does not have a playground and there’s not much to do for small kids, which is a plus for us. We again enjoyed our short stay, especially playing this fun and challenging golf course.
ScoutGreat facilities and most spots are fairly private with amazing sites right on the lake

I stayed here a few times in September 2022. The weather was really rainy but the lake is pretty and Oscoda has a lot of hiking and places to hang up a hammock and relax. (The campsite is about 10 minutes from town.)
Labor Day weekend was crazy and my neighbors had a really difficult time staying in their designated site - one family next to me really liked to put their trash on a tree within my site. People just seemed a little unfriendly and territorial - it seemed like they didn’t know what to do with a younger solo woman camper. Unrelated, a guy was shouting a song about cocaine around 11pm, drinking with his buddies. Just kind of weird vibes even though there were a million kids. It didn’t really feel like homey, family vibes.
The second time I was there I was told I could not car camp. The lady who was working didn’t seem to care but my last night an older male worker waited at the entrance until I returned and loudly announced my site number and said I wasn’t allowed to car camp (I usually don’t get frustrated with older people when they yell because I assume they may be hard of hearing, but it seemed a little unsafe to announce where I would be sleeping.) I asked if hammock camping was ok and he became gruffer and told me his boss wanted to kick me off the campground - which seemed to imply a possible punishment if I kept asking questions. Ironically, I was asking these questions because I didn’t have a tent but was still trying to comply. I just felt uncomfortable after that and left, spending my last night somewhere else.
Showers are ok - they’re coin operated and cleaned every few days.
The scenery is pretty but it doesn’t work for me if I can’t car camp and if there’s no cell service to work. As mentioned, weird vibes as a solo female camper too. Adult activities - like a dance party or movies - take place after dark. I can’t imagine how being in a dark forest with strangers would feel safe, let alone fun, when there is alcohol and it seems likely there are other substances too. No really where my interests lie.
But if you have an RV you might have a different experience - or if you’re looking for a party during a holiday weekend. It might also be worth a try if you’re camping as a group.
TravelerI’m a single woman and I’ve had an issue with the MI DNR this year… lots of talking down to while also unresponsive to noise issues or neighbors that cross over into your space. Hopefully the hosts will be different next year- the scenery is really beautiful and it’s peaceful and quiet.

Great for our “eastern” adventure up north. Sites require a reservation either at the office or Online. Not somewhere you can just pay for on spot because it’s in the rifle river recreation area. We had site 127 at Devoe lake and it was very pleasant. Quiet and lovely in late September.
Traveler
We tented here. Our location was right behind the general store so at night the lights were very bright. This KOA has so many activities for kids and we enjoyed ourselves here!
TravelerWe tented at this campground and enjoyed it so much! Loved being right by the water, and bathrooms were so clean. Would go back!
ScoutNot a huge park, but complete with bike and walk/jog trails, access to Harrisville, which is quite lovely, and should thrive now that Covid has subsided. Nice Lake Huron access!
TravelerGreat location and our site had a nice shortcut through the woods that exited by the lake and bathrooms. The overlook tower is definitely worth the hike and there's a hidden surprise at the same location for those who know where to look. 😉
TravelerAll in all it was good, no beach to mention it was a hill other than that good
TravelerYou can climb a lighthouse and look out 30+ miles. Two swimming beaches. Dog beach. A few trails to walk on, not many to ride bikes.
ScoutGreat wooded campground on the shores of Lake Huron. Great beach with sand and rocks. Once you’re out in about 2 feet of water it becomes all sand for as far as you can go. Lakeside sites each have their own access to the beach which is steps away. Excellent new bathhouse with big showers and plenty of warm water. Campground fee doesn’t include a daily entry pass which is 10 per day or 36 for a whole year. Sites don’t have water but there are spigots located in several spots in the park. 30/20 amp electric service.

This is a beautiful campground with wonderful people.
TravelerLocation is excellent. This is a well maintained park, fantastic beaches and nice trails. I arrived on a Thursday and left Sunday. The sites are on the small side without any barriers, which was fine midweek. On the weekend, overcrowding was the norm. This was my first experience at a Michigan state park, and I do not know if others have designated spaces based on the size of the RV or tent. This would make a more pleasant experience for campers. My guess is the park was designed long before people hauled around a 30 foot camper. No park rangers facilitated parking that I could see, and clearly you should book your spot as early as possible.
Midweek 5 stars, Weekend 1
GuideWe had planned to camp on Lake Superior this weekend, but weather changed that and so we got a last minute reservation here. Really enjoyed our site (119). It felt a little bigger and not very crowded (could partly be based on the time of year). Long beach to walk on and swings and slides for kids in the day area. Very clean bathrooms and family shower availability. They sell wood in the campground and you have access to drinking water. This was a last minute reservation, but we will definitely be back and would like to come in warmer weather and be able to swim.
TravelerGreat campground if you’re going to tent or camp in the cabin. I had cabin #3, very beautiful on the lake. Wish they had a grate to cook some things, however I failed to bring my own. It made do with what I had. I walked around the park, seemed like the RV sites were packed and on top and right next to each other. Weather played out perfectly, service is a little choppy but it worked.
GuideI loved this park. I had a site on the Lake side. First night I arrived the lake was angry and a bit windy, when I woke up, it had calmed down significantly and the sun came out. Overall this campground is beautiful. The bathrooms are very clean. The campground staff was very nice. There is electric which was nice as I went early in the season and was able to plug in a heater.
