Great stop over
This isn’t a remote getaway, it’s a great spot that’s close to everything you need. Some reviews commented on the highway noise, I had no issues. Staff was friendly and helpful, facilities were clean. There’s an illuminated walk path that connects to the Walmart which is super convenient.

Peaceful area.
The lake is very weedy. But silver lake or Bishop lakes are close.

Great Campground
We had a great stay! Didn’t enjoy any of the activities but heard they were a blast. We enjoyed the texted alerts on activities. This was our second trip with our new rv, just chilled and enjoyed. It was a bit noisy at night, it’s to be expected with children and the generation we live in today. Overall a great experience! Hope to return soon to enjoy the activities.

Lakeport State Park Campground
Great state park!
I was pleasantly surprised by this state park. I prefer camping that is more secluded and the pictures on the DNR site appeared very close together.
The North loop of the campground was very noisy and crowded. However, the South loop had more of the rustic vibe I prefer. The sites were spacious and while there weren’t trees in between each site, there were trees lining between each row that backed up to each other.
The beach is a bit rocky so beach shoes are recommended. The rocks are well worth the seclusion on the south side of the beach.
I will definitely be back to this campground!

GuideMetamora-Hadley Recreation Area
Nice state park
As usual, there's only electric at sites, but the pedestals seem fairly new, and tight. South loop is nicely wooded & has a newer, larger restroom/shower building, not much lake view. The north loop is a little less wooded, with the NW end having a little better lake views, but a pretty ancient restroom/shower facility.
Across the lake is the day use area with a beach and concession stand. (There's a small camp store in the north loop.)
ADA Only sites are asphalt paved. Some of the regular sites could be a challenge to get level on, but the rangers told me they have wood blocks for loan if you don't have enough.
Our first night & a half, we had some terrible neighbors two sites over. Constant profanities, yelling at & threatening their kids... real dirtbags. Rangers booted them from the park! Good to see them taking such positive action. I have not run into a single staff member here that wasn't pleasant.
This was our first time here. A test run, since it's only an hour from home (but feels farther). We'll be back for sure. (Especially with gas prices so high anymore.)
T-Mobile was only slow LTE at our site, but our Starlink worked perfectly at our site. Might be harder to get a clear shot in the more wooded areas of the park.

Absolutely beautiful
My husband and I actually took our first camping trip in our new camper to this location, but we are novice when it comes to campgrounds. It was nice because there was always an attendant at the office to help. They gave clear and concise directions. The grounds were impeccable. Everything looked fantastic. We have even considered being seasonal here because it is so beautiful.

Well kept park :)
Pretty with trees, although you do have very open views if you like more growth... weekend activities... family park, you need to be able to walk a ways to enjoy all their games, activities and beach...
Guide to Washington
Campgrounds near Washington, Michigan offer wooded sites set amid lakes and rivers with numerous trails for outdoor enthusiasts. Sites range from modern facilities with full hookups to more rustic options with fewer amenities. Most campgrounds in the area provide access to fishing, hiking, and seasonal activities like disc golf and kayaking from May through October.

Kayaking and boating: The Huron River at Proud Lake Recreation Area offers excellent paddling opportunities with boat rentals available. "This was our first time camping. The park has a beautiful 2.5 mile trail around the lake that makes this campground great. We brought our own kayaks but they do rent boats," shares Karen C. about her experience at Proud Lake Recreation Area.
Rock hunting: Lakeport State Park on Lake Huron provides unique opportunities for rock collectors. "Lakeport is one of the hidden gems in Michigan. We all have heard that you can find Petoskey Stones in Northern Michigan, well... look no further! I have found the most beautiful Petoskey Stones at Lakeport," explains a camper at Lakeport State Park Campground.
What campers like
Private wooded sites: Many campers appreciate the natural settings of campgrounds in the area. "This 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. Showers are hot. Lots of deer to see at dusk," comments a visitor at Oakland County Addison Oaks.
Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention the quality of amenities. "The bathhouse is newly built with amazing showers including large Family/Handicap showers," notes John F. from Proud Lake Recreation Area.

What you should know
Site selection matters: Campers report significant differences between loops and sections at many campgrounds. "There are two sections to this campground. The northern section seems to be the louder section and the southern section seems to be the more laid back quiet section. The south section has more of a woodsy outdoor feel while the north section has more of an open space, smaller lots, crowded feel," explains a camper about Holly State Rec Area.
Seasonal considerations: Most campgrounds operate from late April through October, with some offering limited winter access. A camper notes, "We were last there for Halloween camping" at Addison Oaks, while Oakland County Addison Oaks runs "late April to late October."
