The campsites are big,secluded, wooded, and clean."

GuideLevel sites with full hookup. Catch and release fishing pond. Nice little swimming area. Nice playground. Cute little petting zoo. Stayed for a week at $320.
GuideRuby is a fitting name for this gem. This is the most wholesome cute campground I've ever been to. It has a family owned summer camp vibe and the owners are very kind and helpful. The grounds are very well managed it's right on a river, it's quiet, peaceful and they sell great quality firewood at a low price. I could go on forever. If you see this place or learn of it you MUST give it a try. Ten out of ten and perhaps this was just luck but I didn't even see a mosquito!
TravelerWe've state at this campground on and off for roughly 3 weeks staying mostly at the Cedar cabin but we also tent camped as well. The staff is amazing, the campground is well maintained and quiet. Bathrooms are clean and it has hot showers and a place to do your dishes as well. We love the trails and the wildlife and the kids loved the parks.
GuideGreat starter campground which is just what we wanted - my buddy and I took his 6 year old camping for the first time.
The sites were not as secluded as I’d prefer but we made do. Nice hiking trails around the camp.
Watch out for ticks though.
GuideI love this place and so do my 3 dogs. We got a secluded campsite, and it’s gorgeous- tucked into the woods and was easy to back into. You’re far enough from people to where you don’t really see a lot of them or hear them that often besides people walking by. This has been very peaceful- and fairly inexpensive as well. There is no water hookup- but you can fill up and dump at the front of the campground. No store- but you can stop and get firewood when you check in.
ScoutCamp site was nice with blacktop pad and once parked felt very secluded and could barely see site past truck in parking spot. Great for getting away and seeing the night sky. Beach and water was a 5.3 mile drive and wasn't alot of things for kids to do but ride bikes and play in woods but mine still had fun.
TravelerAsk money for wifi - any service
GuideThis rustic campground is obviously well-tended and has an almost magical feel to it. It's private, quiet, and full of wildlife. There are two paved sites for handicapped accessibility, running water, a dumpster, and two outhouses. The DNR staff here were also super friendly and helpful. Absolutely love this place!
ScoutThis campground used to be all about family and friends. Camping friends that became family. 40+ years camping there, generation after generation. So many wonderful people. But the new owner has changed that camping experience for a lot of people. Seasonals and reoccurring weekenders. In fact over the last 2 years he has lost over 40+ seasonal families. Many who have been there 10,20 even 30yrs. He has done some much needed improvements but for what he is trying to charge people it’s ridiculous. Believe all the bad reviews. And the good reviews, well he pays for those by offering discounts for good reviews or free Wibit passes. The so called lake that he advertises is a nasty little pond that I’m sure is swimming with ecoli . , the Wibit is small and priced outrageously at more than $35 on most days and is riddled with holes and barely filled with air in most days. Which also makes it dangerous. The store does not have much to offer and what they do have is priced ridiculous. There is one bathhouse and a couple nasty outhouses. The owner also lies so much and thinks everyone else are fools. He doesn’t live in MI so you won’t ever see him either. Spend your money somewhere else. For what he is charging it is not worth it.
