"We did venture out to a brewery 5-10 mins away in Allendale and Grand Haven is about 20-25 minutes away if you want to cruise out to Lake Michigan. The pool was clean and we had a lot on the pond."
"Very easy drive to the lighthouse, too!"
$45 - $85 / night
"Year round parks are so hard to find in Michigan. This one is awesome. Great spots in the trees and also back in spots right on the river."
"This is a quirky little campground tucked away along a large river. It's not large, but half of the sites are directly on a wide fast moving river. Occasionally a paddleboat goes buy with tourists. "
"We love this as an easy getaway close to home. I wouldn’t call it a beautiful campground... but it is clean, and has a ton to do for kids!"
"Great trees surrounding the property. Tons of kids - great activities for them! Campground is clean, and staff friendly."
"Holland State Park is popular for its expansive sandy beach along Lake Michigan and Lake Macatawa where swimming, sun bathing, fishing, and boating are popular activities. "
"The Lake Macatawa campground is across the street from a small beach on the Macatawa Lake. This is a wooded campground. The sites are pretty tight as is usual for a Michigan State Park."
$48 - $52 / night
"Campsites are easy to get into with plenty of room to get situated. Close to town and fairly short drive to Lake Michigan."
"Searching for a 1 night space on the michigan lake we had to look more around and find this wonderful campground. Just 10 minutes away to downtown Holland and only 20 minutes away of the beach."
$38 - $42 / night
"Site 31 and any along that path back up to a little creek and trail which was just perfect for the kids to play in."
"This is one of the absolute best campsites in Michigan, in my opinion. With great access to dunes and Lake Michigan, stunning sunsets are just part of the charm."
"Cute little campground in a small town in Dorr, Michigan. Lots of activities, swimming, wagon rides, jump pad, and more. Facilities were fairly clean and easily accessible."
"Multiple playgrounds, toddler pool and regular pool, jump pad, and lots of room to run around."
"Very nice pond/lake to swim and fish in!"
"We were right on the canal side and only 300ft away from Lake Michigan. Grand Haven State Parks has upgraded facilities so bathrooms and showering is actually pleasant."
"We are here for Lake Michigan. The sunrises and sunsets, the water, the beach and the waves.
Nothing like waking up and walking to the beach, easy back and forth for lunch/dinner and snacks."
$50 / night
"The sites are decent size and it’s close to restaurants and shops."
ScoutWould not recommend. Upkeep is minimal and cleanliness is almost non-existent. Rules are rarely enforced and seasonal campers think they are above the law.

ScoutReview for Indian Valley Campground– NOT Family-Friendly I would strongly caution anyone considering a stay here, especially families.• Staff Behavior: The staff are extremely rude and unprofessional. They seem more interested in enforcing inconsistent rules than providing any sort of hospitality. Expect to be yelled at by an older man who appears to take pride in confrontation. The cleaning lady is especially unpleasant to deal with.• Facilities: The playground is in poor condition and unsafe for kids. Water sources were often overflowing and filthy—completely unacceptable.• Environment: Seasonal campers are often drunk and creepy, creating a very uncomfortable and unsafe atmosphere. One weekend, a man even exposed himself to others at the campground. That alone should disqualify this place as a family destination. Overall, the experience was terrible. Between the unpredictable rules, rude staff, unsafe environment, and unsettling behavior from other campers, I cannot recommend Indian Valley Campground to anyone—especially families with children.
TravelerUnfortunately, tents have to be on pavement and weighted down because stakes can’t be put in. Sites don’t have fire pits either. There is not really a view of the lake at all, but it is a minute walk to the big beach which is nice. Bring a fire pit and a camper, not tents. Beach is beautiful.
ScoutWe came for the weekend and loved it. So glad I found this campground!
ScoutVery nice campground. Quit and peaceful. Very nice people. Nice campers too! Clean facilities! Clean park.
ScoutWell cared for Campground with spacious lots and a good amount of tree cover. Walkable access to Lake Michigan is unbeatable! Bathrooms are very clean.
ScoutNice and quiet campground. It is not luxurious but nice. Very nice pond/lake to swim and fish in!
ScoutThis spot is wonderful, but boy howdy does it live up to its name. If you do not have AWD and good ground clearance, don’t even try to get there.
