Best Campgrounds near Blissfield, MI

Campgrounds in the Blissfield, Michigan area span southeastern Michigan and northwestern Ohio, offering a range of tent, RV, and cabin accommodations. Monroe-Toledo North KOA and Indian Creek Camp & Conference Center provide family-oriented experiences with amenities like swimming areas, while Lake Hudson Recreation Area and Sterling State Park Campground offer more natural settings. Most local campgrounds operate seasonally, with the majority opening from April through October, though several remain open year-round.

Access to campgrounds varies significantly by season, with many facilities closing during winter months. Reservations are strongly recommended during summer weekends when family-friendly campgrounds fill quickly. "The campground is right off the expressway and surrounding area are farm fields. There are some trees but I wouldn't call this camping in a forest by any means," noted one visitor about the Monroe-Toledo North KOA. Road access is generally good throughout the region, with most campgrounds easily accessible by standard vehicles on paved roads. Many campgrounds offer full hookup sites for RVs, though tent campers should note that some facilities prioritize RV camping with limited primitive tent sites.

Campers rate the family-focused amenities at several locations as particular highlights, with swimming areas, water slides, and organized activities during peak season. Monroe-Toledo North KOA receives praise for its Halloween camping events, while Indian Creek Camp & Conference Center offers features like a jumping pillow, zip line, and even llamas. Site sizes vary considerably across the region. According to one review, "Sites are very small unless you book an 'Eagle' site. There was 7 ft from our stairs to the neighbors camper." The region's campgrounds tend to be more developed and activity-oriented rather than wilderness-focused, making them suitable for families and those seeking amenities over solitude. Most provide basic facilities including drinking water, showers, and electrical hookups, though some public areas offer more primitive camping experiences.

    Van Buren State Park Campground

    Cozy

    Some of the sites are small so you have to be careful which you site you reserve if you’re a tent camper. The outside of the circle is your best bet and there’s a few scattered in the middle. If you can get a good middle spot it’s nice if you have kids since there’s a playground, swings, basketball, and tether court. No running water for bathrooms if that’s important for you. The park is also just off a country road so traffic can occasionally be heard but it’s not excessive. Grounds are very well maintained and the hosts were very nice.

    Mary Jane Thurston State Park Campground

    Lots to do here

    The camp sites on the river are excellent. Some sights are by the highway. They are still nice, but lots of road noise. There is no water at the camp sites, but water is available. There are no shower facilities. There are great hiking trails and a nice frisbee golf course.

    Van Buren State Park Campground

    Small and peaceful

    We stayed one night on our way to IN. We’ve never been here before and wanted to check it off our list. It’s a small campground with one side as equestrian and the other side not. All sites had electric and water, no full hookup. There were only drop toilets and no showers. They were clean but I don’t think I’d want to do more than a weekend there. It had a nice playground for kids and plenty of trails to hike or go horseback riding. They also had a dog park and small wildflower garden. The check in cabin had ice and wood for sale but no store. Our site was really nice. The pads were recently paved and had a huge bumper at the end. The fire ring was nice and the site had plenty of space for tents.

    Waterloo Portage Lake Modern — Waterloo Recreation Area

    Had a good time, a little crowded

    We stayed for the weekend tent camping, getting to the site was a little crowded (alot of kids on bikes) our site was pavement but had some space to set the tent on the grass. I seen alot of sites with trees for shade. The vista walkway was across from us, it led right to the beach concessions. The beach walkway is handicap accessible. The fishing pier is new, has two benches and tables for your stuff. It is a bit of a walk to get to but is handicap accessible.
    There are two bathrooms throughout the loop and one at the beach. The park workers walk around and tell you about the activities they have that day. We enjoyed our stay there is alot to do
