    Wayne County Fairgrounds RV Park

    Typical Fairgrounds Campground

    This is a typical fairground campground with open grassy areas for campsites surrounded by barns and tracks. The fairgrounds is located just off I-94 which makes for easy entrance and exit to the campground, but, means there is lots of road noise. Close by are plenty of stores, restaurants, gas stations, etc. In fact, there is a gap in the fence that runs around the fairgrounds allowing you to walk to a Walmart, McDonalds, Dunkin Donuts, and more. 

    We arrived without a reservation and the women in the office was very helpful providing a map with all available sites during our stay and letting us choose which one we wanted. One of the first things you notice is that a number of people are here long-term so we went to the back area hoping it would be quieter and less crowded. A number of the campsites are “buddy” sites meaning your patio opens to your neighbors so be careful which one you pick. This is pretty undesirable when the neighbor is a total stranger so we chose a site where we didn’t have anyone next to us. 

    They offer 50 amp full hook-up sites, 50 amp/water, and 30 amp/water sites with pull-thru and back-in options. There is a dump station located in the middle of the park which is easy to get to. The roads are wide and a lack of trees makes this campground accessible for any size RV. The sites are level but some lack grassy making the patio pretty dusty or muddy. Unfortunately, where we were was pretty muddy just after a light rain. This campground works best for RV’s and not tents. For tenters there is a designated section that is set in a corner of the park with large trees for shade but not much privacy between you and others. A water spigot is in the tent area and there was one picnic table. The camp office sells firewood but we only saw two fire pits in the whole park. Be aware that noise from the interstate and nearby train tracks may make for a restless night. Bathrooms are centrally located in the campground and were old and tired but relatively clean. On-site laundry is available.

    Apparently, management is having some issues with campers not obeying some of the rules. One of the sad things about this campground is that campers have to be reminded to clean up after their dogs. Apparently, it is such an issue that we got a letter stating that if you don’t pick up your dogs poop you would be asked to leave. How sad is that? There is free WiFi which worked pretty well. Upon checking in, we had to sign a piece of paper stating that we would not download copyrighted material or stream movies or we would be asked to leave. 

    My favorite aspect of this campground is that they had a community garden that you were welcome to pick from. We got tomatoes, Swiss chard, peppers, broccoli, and more. Overall, this campground was fine for the few nights we were here and close to the attractions we wanted to visit. We never felt unsafe even though it was close to major cities. We chose this campground because we wanted to go to Ann Arbor and Dearborn and it was a very convenient location.

    Pros:

    ·        Good location if you want to visit Ann Arbor and Dearborn

    ·        Close to interstate for easy access

    ·        Long, level sites that will fit any RV

    ·        Community garden you can pick from vegetables

    ·        Stores and restaurants are nearby (some within walking distance)

    Cons:

    ·        Lots of road noise from I-94

    ·        No trees for shade or privacy

    ·        Would not recommend for tent camping

    ·        Many campers are long-term

    ·        “Buddy” campsites with patios facing each other

    McGinnis Lake Modern Campground — Holly Recreation Area

    The State of Michigan has dropped the ball…

    No sewer or dumps is available at this campground (April 2022). You will have to dump elsewhere. If there was a memo I missed it. Made reservation in winter 2021. Had great Verizon and ok TMobile service. Site itself was easy to level and adequate for our big rig. It was one of 4 50 amp sites in the park. Nice large grassy site and the park was not very full.

    Groveland Oaks County Park

    Kid friendly

    This campground has a lake for swimming, water slide, arcade, boat rentals, mini golf, biking trails and fishing. Lots for kids to do... also skate park and 2 playgrounds. Full hookup area is away from most of the weekend traffic with a short cut to get to where all the kids stuff is located. I think it is a little pricier than most monthly rentals in southeast Michigan. We chose for the convenient location for spending the weekends. Our campsite was a little difficult to get into because it was on a curve and there was a seasonal camper with a Class A right across from our site which didn’t allow for a lot of space to maneuver our 26 ft travel trailer. It was, however, fairly close to the park and restrooms.

    Seven Lakes State Park Campground

    Great waypoint when camping across the UP

    Vibe: Woodland getaway with no flash and really nice sites. 

    Cleanliness: Sites are above average. Vault toilets are…vault toilets. 

    Facilities: Nothing flashy. Wish there was a few additional water filling points and that the dumpsters were all located near the camp entrance/exit. But really nothing to complain about. 

    General spots: Large, very well treed, gravel, picnic table and fire ring. 

    Privacy: Can see neighbors through sites, but better privacy than most places. 

    Our site: 39. Could drive circles around inside it. Even has a tree in the middle of it with room to drive all the way around it(not with a trailer). Depending where you set up your rig, you may need an extra long extension cord. 

    Noise: Quiet. Occasionally hear wolves howling. Cell signal(Verizon): 1 bar. No internet loads. Text messages will send and receive. Sometimes immediately, sometimes hours later. Other: Wish we had a chance to explore the lakes. Sounds like the swimming and fishing is good. Saw several kids on bikes toting rods.

    Pontiac Lake Recreation Area

    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.

    The Holly Campground

    KOA

    We normally have no issues with KOAs. It is preseason, and still early, so we understand there’s some bumps. But we had a difficult time finding a site that would work for our rig. Everything was soggy, roads washed out and our rig sank. Very few full hook up sites and none available for long term (month or more).

What to do

BMX and bicycle opportunities: Groveland Oaks County Park offers dedicated biking facilities beyond just trails. A reviewer commented that the park "includes a ton of fun activities for young and old" including "biking trails" and a designated BMX area.

What campers like

Wooded privacy at select sites: Many campers value natural separation between sites. At McGinnis Lake Campground, visitors appreciate that "sites were spacious, we loved the national forest" and that the "Maple loop had several semi-private sites screened from neighbors by trees."

Clean facilities with amenities: Campground maintenance and cleanliness consistently appears in positive reviews. A visitor to Port Huron KOA noted that "the grounds are well kept" and there are "plenty of friendly staff."

Community activities and entertainment: Several campgrounds schedule regular events. At Camp Dearborn, a reviewer mentioned there are "activities almost every night" and "lots for the kids, outdoor fun, night dance parties, cement for bike rides or rollerblading."

Campground layouts: Some RV parks receive praise for thoughtful organization. A visitor to Port Huron Township RV Park stated: "If you want a peaceful camp trip, this is the place (if it's not during a holiday)... But overall, I love this place."

What you should know

Seasonal availability varies: Many campgrounds in the region operate on limited schedules. McGinnis Lake Modern Campground is open year-round, while Camp Dearborn, Thousand Trails St. Clair, and Port Huron KOA typically close for winter months.

Cell service considerations: Network coverage can be spotty. At Haas Lake Park RV Campground, connectivity is generally reliable, though specific carriers may have limitations in more wooded sites.

Weekend crowding common: Many campgrounds experience significant visitor influx during peak periods. One Port Huron KOA reviewer noted: "The campground is peaceful during week - due to cabins can be very rowdy and crowded on weekends."

Water hookup availability: Not all sites offer full connections. At McGinnis Lake Campground, a visitor pointed out: "There is no water hookup - but you can fill up and dump at the front of the campground."

Tips for camping with families

Child-friendly amenities: Select campgrounds specifically cater to younger visitors. Groveland Oaks County Park is "good for families with young children, lots of activities for children" and includes features like "a large beach, boat rentals, bike paths plus a BMX area and several playgrounds."

Entertainment options for teens: Older children have specific needs. At Camp Dearborn, one family mentioned "the teens love the canteen" and appreciated the variety of activities available.

Tips from RVers

Site selection guidance: At Dancing Fire Glamping and RV Resort, RV sites are designed with power connections in mind, but site sizes can vary. One visitor mentioned it's "suited for RVs" with "a pad with power" though pricing may seem high for non-RV campers.

Hookup options: While many parks advertise full hookups, configurations differ. At Haas Lake Park RV Campground, there are "very reasonable weekly and monthly rates" but "it seems as though most campers are seasonal residents making it difficult to get a decent spot for weekend campers."

Big rig considerations: Larger motorhomes require particular attention to site dimensions. At Port Huron KOA, the roads are noted as being "stone not paved" which can affect larger RV navigation during wet conditions.

Fire ring policies: Not all campgrounds provide permanent fire facilities. At Port Huron Township RV Park, a visitor warned: "this campground does not have permanent fire rings. You will either need to bring your own pit, or rent one from the front office."
