Ottawa County Fairgrounds

Two miles southwest of Holland, Ottawa County Fairgrounds operates as a seasonal campground from May through October on fairground property. The facility accommodates RVs up to 50 feet with electric and water hookups available, though one reviewer noted non-standard electrical connections. Sites include access to drinking water, restrooms, showers, and a dump station.

The campground sits near residential areas and roadways, which affects the camping atmosphere according to visitor feedback. Pricing remains uniform across all sites regardless of amenities, and the facility maintains a strict no-refund policy for reservations made 14 days or more in advance. For campers seeking a more secluded experience, Oak Grove Resort & Campground provides an alternative just over a mile west.

Lousy for Tent Camping

Near road and houses. No standard electricity. One fire pit for entire site. One price for every site regardless of features, making it very expensive for primitive sites. No refunds given at all, if booked 14 days in advance or sooner. Unable to see individual sites on reservation page.

Nice County Fairground Camping

There is generally only camping here during events like the fair. It is a nice campground compared to other county fair campgrounds.
