GuideA mostly seasonal campground that can be had to find. Super amenities with huge pool and large field with dog park, baseball field, bags, basketball and sand volleyball. Many trails to walk.
ScoutWe really enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. Delivered our firewood right to our site. Lots of shade trees, beautiful well groomed trails for walking. Even a dog park, which our Golden Retriever really enjoyed.
GuideVery private sites. I was surprised at how well each site was hidden from the others. Restrooms can be a bit far from some sites. Nice little dog park by the beach too.
GuideNice Park Nice park for full timers. Large spots to accommodate big rigs and kids. Full hook ups. Cell service great with Verizon hotspot(22u, 20d, 38ms and AT&T cell(27d, 20u, 27ms). Playgrounds everywhere for the kids. Giant dog park and ponds. Pool was closed. Just needs more grass. Our spot was really patchy and resulted in a lot of mud. Great campground with polite and helpful staff. Don’t pass this one up.

ScoutThis is a quiet, friendly and family campground. The staff is very willing to help any way they can. The sites are level and spacious.
A great place for the kids! With a beach, playground and paved roads is nice but the frosting in this cake is the petting zoo. Animals from bunnies, peacocks & cats to horses, goats and of course Milton the burro, get it? Milton Burro, LOL
The store has stuff for the kids at very reasonable prices and the ice cream shop across the street is a nice walk after dinner. There's a light there for safe crossing, too.
Try this place, you'll add this to your good memories.

RangerA fun little campground with a nice bunch of petting zoo type animals! The beach is clean and the lake is warm! Very nice layout with walking trail around the lake. The only complaint was not nearly enough trash cans around (like, none easy to find) and the bathrooms were nasty for our 2 day visit. Price per night for full hook up was $40 :-)

Kayaking or canoeing options: River Raisin Canoe Livery & Campground has a dock where you can launch your own boat or rent one on-site.

Weather impact on sites: Heavy rain affects many campgrounds in the area. "Detroit/Ann Arbor KOA has a camp store. Small bathrooms with a few showers. Pretty views of the lake from the lake sites... When it rains several campsites get very wet! There are a lot of trees so some of lots have no grass," warns Debra B.
Noise considerations: Highway proximity creates noise issues at some locations. At Harbortown RV Resort, Trent T. notes, "Another big issue is how close it is to the expressway which is noisy and there are trains that go by during the night."
Entrance/gate policies: Some campgrounds have specific hours for access. According to Phillip S., River Raisin Canoe Livery "lock[s] the gate at 7pm since it is their home. No drinking."

Leveling considerations: Pay attention to site grading before setup. Phillip S. notes specific site conditions at River Raisin Canoe Livery: "11 is a great spot in the corner as far away from the house and entrance as you can get, almost always the first site booked lol. It is a tad uneven."
Site spacing awareness: RV sites at some campgrounds are placed close together. At Monroe-Toledo North KOA, Isaac R. explains, "The only down side was they pack in the campers super tight. I would guess 22 feet wide and I only had 5 feet behind my 30 foot camper until you reach the next camper."
