Most RV campgrounds around Pittsford, Michigan operate seasonally from April or May through late October or mid-November. Winter camping options are limited with only Camp Turkeyville RV Resort offering year-round access. The terrain consists primarily of flat, grassy sites with varying degrees of shade, situated among small lakes and agricultural land.
What to do
Fishing opportunities: Apple Creek Campground provides access to nearby walking and hiking trails directly from the property. "There are plenty of activities for the kids including an ice cream sundae bar ($3/person), foam party, hat ride, candy bingo, basketball court, putt-putt, and a swimming pool," notes Ryan M.
Goat watching: At Moscow Maples RV Park, visitors can observe farm animals next door. One camper reports, "There was a farm with goats next door and I loved watching the animals. The road was very close to the campground but I don't remember ever hearing road noise."
Pool access: Several campgrounds feature swimming pools, including Northhaven 21+ RV Resort which caters exclusively to adults. Moscow Maples RV Park also has a pool, though some campers report not using it during their stay.
What campers like
Spacious sites: Hideaway RV Park offers full hookup sites with plenty of room between neighbors. "Very spacious sites, all of which are full hookups for a very reasonable price. Nice people running this place," says Curt in his review.
Clean facilities: Many campgrounds maintain their amenities well. A visitor to Moscow Maples noted, "The laundry room was older but clean and less expensive than most. Bathhouse was also older but clean."
Friendly atmosphere: Camp Turkeyville RV Resort receives praise for its welcoming environment. "Very laid back. Family oriented. Plenty of things for the kids to do," writes David D. Similarly, at Moscow Maples, campers report feeling welcome despite the presence of seasonal residents.
What you should know
Cell service variations: Mobile connectivity differs significantly between campgrounds. At Holiday RV Campground, "Cell service great with Verizon hotspot (22u, 20d, 38ms) and AT&T cell (27d, 20u, 27ms)," according to Sean N. However, Heartland Woods Family Resort reports poor connectivity, with one camper noting "internet was not very good and Verizon cell phone was not good at all."
Electrical issues: Some locations experience power problems. At Harbor Cove RV Resort, one visitor reported significant issues: "We struggled to stay for 1 night as we had to keep hitting the Circuit Breaker every 5-10 minutes... It was all because their box couldn't handle the power."
Reservation systems: Holiday RV Campground has received criticism for its booking process. One camper complained about "Antique reservation payment system... after confirming and paying in full for my site they forgot to post my site information which left me stranded in the pouring rain."
Tips for camping with families
Playgrounds available: Holiday RV Campground offers multiple play areas for children. "Playgrounds everywhere for the kids. Giant dog park and ponds," notes Sean N. in his review of the facilities.
Weekend activities: Apple Creek Campground & RV Park schedules special events for younger campers. "Great owners that care about the camping experience and provide activities on the weekend for the kids," according to William D.
Site selection: When booking at Holiday RV Campground, request grassy areas when available. One camper mentioned, "Just needs more grass. Our spot was really patchy and resulted in a lot of mud."
Tips from RVers
Site surface types: Hideaway RV Park offers different site surfaces to choose from. "Spots had plenty of room, some had grass others had concrete," reports Wendy F. after her first camping experience.
Extended stay options: For those planning longer visits, several parks accommodate this need. At Moscow Maples, one camper mentioned, "We stayed a week and enjoyed our time there. We had lots of rain so we didn't get outside as much as we wanted."
Highway noise considerations: When selecting sites at Hideaway RV Park, be aware of proximity to Interstate 94. One camper notes the "biggest downfall is the never ending traffic noise from the expressway."
