Best Cabin Camping near Marine City, MI

Several cabin options exist within a 30-mile radius of Marine City, Michigan, with varying levels of amenities and comfort. Port Huron KOA offers family-friendly cabins with access to multiple pools, a jumping pillow, and scheduled activities. Bald Mountain Recreation Area provides two rustic cabins that sleep 10-15 people, featuring wood-burning stoves but no electricity or heat. Pontiac Lake Recreation Area includes three small cabins in the East campground area with more open surroundings, while the West camping area offers a more wooded and isolated setting. "The cabins are rustic, so they don't have electricity or heat but there is a large wood burning stove," noted one visitor about the Bald Mountain cabins.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Most cabins require reservations well in advance, especially during summer months when availability becomes limited. The KOA campgrounds typically offer more amenities in their cabin accommodations, while state park cabins tend to be more basic. Addison Oaks County Park provides cabin options alongside yurts in a peaceful setting with hiking and mountain biking trails. Pet policies vary by location, with some cabins allowing pets while others restrict them. A camper mentioned that Port Huron KOA has "lots of trees, cabins, tents and campers welcome. Many shower houses/bathrooms. Jumping pillow, tons of scheduled activities, equipment rentals, trails nearby."

Most rustic cabins require visitors to bring their own bedding, cooking equipment, and other essentials. The more developed KOA cabins may include basic furnishings but still require personal items. Firewood is available for purchase at most locations, particularly important for cabins relying on wood stoves for heat. On-site camp stores at locations like Port Huron KOA and Lakeport State Park provide basic supplies and forgotten essentials, though prices may be higher than in town. Visitors staying at state park cabins should plan to bring all necessary supplies as amenities are minimal. Water access varies by location, with some cabins offering nearby spigots while others require carrying water from central locations.

    Bald Mountain Recreation Area

    Amazing place to hike but campground not included.

    I absolutely adore Bald Mountain Recreation area! The trails are well maintained and well marked. There is also tons of clean, easy to access lakes within the park too. Perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding, or fishing. Unfortunately there is not a camping area within the recreation area. There is however two rustic cabins that are available for rental year round. They are popular with hunters and scout troops. The cabins sleep about 10-15 people if remember correctly. They are rustic, so they don’t have electricity or heat but there is a large wood burning stove.

    Oakland County Addison Oaks

    Great Local Campground and Trails

    Addison Oaks is a campground that features hiking and mountain biking trails, campground, cabins, disc golf course, and a lake for boating. The campground is RV and tent friendly and offers fire pits/ picnic tables. The trails are well maintained and heavily trafficked.

    Quick get away

    Wonderful place for a quick get away. Park is clean. Beach is a 1.8 mile hike from the East loop in the campground but is well worth the walk. (Trail is not stroller/wagon friendly) If you are hoping to hook up to electrical, bring extension cords; some hook ups are exceptionally far away from the designated RV parking pad. Extensive mountain biking trails and the lake is open to boating, kayaking, and other water sports. Park offers lots of private sites! We stayed in site 118 and could not see neighboring sites! The site was very spacious and offered picnic table, fire ring, paved pad, and electrical hook up. (hook up in this specific site was considerably far away.)

    Huge, clean, and great fun!

    We stayed in one of the group sites and it was beautiful. Less tree cover than we would have liked, you're basically in a giant grassy field, but it was perfect for a large group. we did have to share a pavilion with a group of older campers (celebrating a 90th birthday. Our group was there to celebrate my 30th) but it turned out perfectly as they did early dinners and went to bed in their campers.

    The beach is nice, a little small, but clean and fun (would be nice if your pets were allowed to swim also).

    The only real negative I have is that for each group site there is a single fire pit. This made cooking, sitting around the fire, and many other things quite difficult. There IS a large charcoal grill that can be used, but if you're doing separate meals, it will be hard to coordinate.

    A great getaway that's not too far

    A very quiet campground. The sites are spread out and only 2 vehicles per site are allowed. The East campground is more open and had 3 small cabins that can be rented. The West camping is more wooded and isolated. An extensive horse back riding trail system and MTB trails are easily accessible.

    Nice Michigan State Park

    Camped here opening weekend of 2022 (April 29). Nice park with several sites for our bigger rig. Leveling would be more of the challenge. But, we eventually got to 145 which was pretty good and very doable from leveling Stand point. Large well kept grassy site. Nice fire ring. No water or sewer at site but fill and dump available in park. Our Verizon WiFi coverage was good as was our TMobile. Staff was very accommodating and helpful. Seemed there to serve. We experienced no issues with our 30 amp (20 & 30 only available). Didn’t need air conditioning but electric heat was our main heat source and worked fine.

    Glamping

    Tons to for kids, multiple pools including a zero entry, jumping pillow, ice cream stores, old west town hayrides, train rides($), multiple parks, and next to small water park. Campground is peaceful during week- due to cabins can be very roudy and crowded on weekends. Owner is very strict but tons of staff always on site to help.

    Port Huron KOA

    Lots of amenities

    Plenty of friendly staff. The site offers a lot of activities including pools, put put golf and play areas for the kids. The grounds are well kept. It’s very busy. Golf carts are a bit of a pain. Lots of private ones but also rentals and they’re everywhere. WiFi is slow but stable. You probably won’t be able to watch Netflix. AT&T service is terrible. Our friends have T-Mobile and it is very fast for them.
