Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Pittsford, MI
Lake Hudson Recreation Area welcomes pets across its rustic 50-site campground situated alongside a serene lake. The private, tree-separated campsites provide ample space for campers with dogs, with large, grassy sites that several reviewers note are perfect for pets to stretch out. Sites 37 and 38 offer excellent lakefront views with plenty of running space for dogs. The recreation area features hiking trails accessible to leashed pets, with campers reporting well-maintained paths that follow the shoreline. Electric hookups are available at all sites, though water access is limited to a single hand pump near the campground entrance, so pet owners should bring containers for their animals' drinking water.
The extensive shoreline and beach areas allow for dog-friendly water recreation, with multiple boat access points where pets can enjoy swimming. Campers particularly appreciate the thick vegetation between sites that creates a secluded atmosphere while providing natural exploration areas for leashed dogs. The campground's designation as a dark sky preserve means minimal lighting at night, creating peaceful evening walks for dog owners. Vault toilets serve the pet-friendly campground, though no shower facilities exist. For those traveling with pets in RVs, several nearby campgrounds offer more amenities, including Gateway Park Campground and 6 Lakes Campground, both of which provide full hookup sites with pet accommodations and are located within 30 minutes of Pittsford.
