About the Resort
Choose the experience of sitting around a campfire, with s’mores in hand, and sleeping in luxurious accommodations without the hassles of loading up the truck and pulling an RV / putting up a tent. This is what glampers are looking for!
Dancing Fire Glamping and RV Resort (formally known as Port Huron Township Campground) will undergo extensive redevelopment following the 2023 camping season and will re-open in Spring 2024 with many new resort amenities, including a new upscale clubhouse reception area with attached pavilion, patio, pool and hot tub area, fitness and yoga space; a pickle ball court; a fenced dog run with dog bathhouse; a playground; and scenic walking trails. Other amenities will include EV charging stations for those wishing to arrive in their electric vehicles. These amenities will be rolled out over the 2024 and 2025 camping season, so thank you in advance for your support and patience while we build these out!
In addition to the new resort amenities, many new options for glamping hospitality beyond traditional campsites will be offered, including The Cottages @ Dancing Fire (luxury park models), Rustic Deluxe Cabins, The Safari Camp @ Dancing Fire (lux style safari tent units), The Bus Stop (stay in a Skoolie! And if you don’t know the term, Google it – so cool!), Vintage Airstreams and RVs, and several other glamping options that will eventually be rolled out (think tree houses, A-frame cabins, and other very cool stays!). Many of these glamping units will be available for the 2024 camping and glamping season, so stay tuned for when reservations open to book your 2024 stay with us!

Our 25+ acre hillside location overlooks Stocks Creek, a 40-acre natural sanctuary that offers beautiful views, trails and bird watching. Stocks Creek connects directly to the Black River, which winds through our Port Huron community out to the St. Clair River and on to Lake Huron. Kayak and canoe rentals will be offered to take advantage of this beautiful waterway, as well as bike and e-bike rentals so that our guests can deepen their exploration and adventuring around historic downtown Port Huron and the Blue Water Area’s beautiful sandy beaches, river walk views (watch the freighters!) and Blue Water Bridge that stretches across the St. Clair River into Canada.

This is the second time staying in these campgrounds in two weeks. Both times stayed in the more wilderness area D with lots of trees and sites for tents or back-in trailers. The grounds are huge with bike/hike trails, a lake and a disc golf course. Mountain biking seems to be very popular there are dirt trails off the paved hiking loop. Sites have electricity and water and are well spaced out.
Guide
I have stayed here over 100 times in past thirty years. Front camp sites are better than back. Staff are friendly. The only rude person here is the camp store owner. Fishing is great, boat, kayaks, trails for everyone. If it rains everything is mud if your in the back camp section.
ScoutWe camped here in our Coleman Lantern over Labor Day Weekend 2023. It was busy but everyone was respectful of one another. The community restrooms, dump station, and dumpsters were well maintained throughout the weekend. The camping store was well stocked for all of the things we forgot to pack but was expensive. The park is extremely sandy so be prepared. Overall it was a quiet, peaceful weekend in a great location. We will definitely be back!
Traveler
Horrible management here. You need to wear a wristband everywhere and at all times. Dumb gate that needs to be scanned to let you in. They guide you into your site which is extremely annoying and freak out if you go the wrong way on the one ways. Just way over controlling on you and you can’t enjoy camping.
Traveler
If you're looking for a peaceful state park near the beach, this is NOT IT.
This is a noisy, crowded, smokey RV park with no privacy. It would probably be fun if you were 10 years old, running wild with all the other kids and hanging out on the beach. The other campers are in large noisy groups that arrive after 11:30 pm to noisily set up their RVs or party until midnight. Not our thing!
The beach is nice (no dogs on beach) and bathrooms were fine.
Legend
Large campground. Level sites with room between them. Lots for kids to do. Pools, basketball etc….
TravelerLakeport state park, is it fun? Is there things to do? How’s the beach? We’ll I tell ya. This park is kept super clean! The bathrooms were kept up well and the showers were squeaky clean with warm water running the whole shower. The beach was rocky so don’t forget to pack some water shoes but the rocky beach comes with finding cool rocks to either paint or just collect! (We left with a whole cooler filled) There is trails to ride your bike around and two playgrounds to keep the kids busy. It was my first camp at a state park and I was highly impressed. So if you’re in the port Huron area or only a couple hours away and want a nice relaxing get away in some good ole out doors but have electricity & bathrooms then I would highly recommend lakeport!
GuideThis is probably the best campground in Michigan. Lots of activities to do. Swimming pools, bicycles for rent, playgrounds, pizza, children's train, etc. Campsites are wide and accessible clean, nice staff. We loved Him for the first time
GuideWe love coming to Addison Oaks. It is a quick drive from home. But a great little get away spot. Very convenient now also with online booking.
GuideFamily camping at its finest. This KOA has so many things to do you could stay a week. (If it wasn’t so $)
They have pretty much any site type you could ask for. It tends to get a little rowdy and is not a quiet campground by any means but there’s something fun about that sometimes. Got to watch out for kids buzzing around on banana bikes and golf carts cruising around.
We stayed a couple times this summer. First time was site 74, it was a grassy site that wasn’t bad but had no shade. Second time we stayed in site 54 which was great. If you’re in a camper I’d recommend sites 54,179,180. Those sites have a bit of a backyard to them and more space.
TravelerWe did reserve a great site 6 months in advance. The caterpillars devoured the entire first loop. When we drove thru, it sounded like rain hitting the truck but it was poo. They were also dropping from the trees along the beach. The beach is rocky.
ScoutCampground was very busy, as you would expect on a holiday weekend. Overall, a very nice campground and would definitely go back again!
Scout
Always a great local retreat away from our hectic daily life. Don’t have to travel far to find some nature. Most sites generously sized, hookups available, clean restrooms. Nice updated playgrounds for the kids, trails to bike, planned activities on weekends. Only wish there was a swimming lake, but alas, only for fishing and canoeing.
ScoutMy sister and I have made a long weekend at Addison Oaks an annual event! Well kept, clean bathrooms, peaceful hikes. Just perfect.
GuideCamped with family here. No complaints!
TravelerThe smallest KOA we have been to but it was a nice change. The new owner helped us back into our site - he was very nice and enthusiastic. Pizza delivery on a rainy night was a nice touch. We will definitely come back when it is warm enough to swim in the lake!
GuideYou get electric, period. Dump station available, potable water available there, as well as various spigots within the park. Beach ok but narrow. Firewood available, with free loaner wagons to get it to your site. I found the west side of the park a lot noisier than the east. The separate south campground was closed for repair, so I can't speak to that. Be aware that in summer, thousands of tentworms will be on virtually every tree, often falling on you when you're sitting around. They get on your awning, so be careful before rolling it up.
TravelerI love lakeport! So peaceful and relaxing! We camped there 9 times in 2020 plan to do the same this year! Home away from home! Campsites along the water are the best with pathways to the beach! Bathrooms are always gleaming as well!!!
LegendAddison 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.
ScoutThis place is amazing! I have been faithfully coming here since I was a child. We had our annual camping trips usually around the end of June and again in the middle to end of September and I looked so forward to it and once got there never wanted to leave. Now my husband and I bring our son here and he’s hooked, doesn’t want to leave. They are right on beautiful Lake Huron with a sandy beaches and clean clear water. They have tons of campsites with electronic hook ups and fresh water spouts throughout the park. The bathrooms are updated and clean with enough room so you don’t have to wait. They have a lovely camp store right by the beach with all kinds of goodies. Miles of hiking trails and on the weekend activities every couple hours for the kids. Love this place!
ScoutThis is our favorite campground! On the smaller side but perfect for our small family. Playground for the kids, tons of activities on the weekend. Fishing is great! Beach is big and clean.
TravelerWe stayed in area A in a water/electric site. It was a Boo Fest weekend. Lots of socially distanced activities for the kids and a scavenger hunt (finding clues on signs in park to solve a mystery). There 26 miles of bike trails and hiking. Many in park are paved. Also a disc golf course. Sites in our area were spacious.
Park was clean, guests well behaved, staff helpful. We will be back
GuideThis is a great family campground. I’ve only stayed in section D with my tent. It is heavily wooded and I don’t see my neighbors in section D. Cell phone tower is close by. We especially enjoy the intermediate level mountain bike trails. Showers are hot. Lots of deer to see at dusk.
Legend(North Campground) This campground can fill up and feel busy, but the sites are generally large enough that you don't feel packed in too tightly. I like the way they left some stands of trees as a buffer between sets of loops as it means you can end up against trees in some sites (such as 161) even though you're technically in the middle of the campground.
The campground has nice bathroom facilities with separate shower rooms. They also are laid out well within the loops so that if one is closed for cleaning there's another one a short walk away.
Verizon cell service was decent enough that we could get work done and at the end of the workday, you can take just a short walk to the campground beach and enjoy searching for cool rocks on the Lake Huron shoreline. The day-use area is quite a bit down the road so you would have to drive there or take a good bike ride. But the benefit is that there is a large, sandy beach at the day-use area.
GuideAlways been a great trip. Good sites I have stayed in both area B and C. Great hiking trails easy access. Friendly staff.
GuideMy daughter and I had a great time here. We went during the week so it was not packed. Nice workers help with anything asked. Food from the snack shack was good.
GuideNice campground on Lake Huron with oversize campsites. This campground is near Port Huron and the Bluewater Bridge to Canada. Enjoyed the park we will be back!
