The Best Camping Near Carp Lake, Michigan

We were met at the checkin. He walked us down to a site to confirm that we were happy with the site before he ran out credit card.

Friendly open campground 

Upon driving into campground, met with a not so friendly dog barking at us. Junk sitting all around check in area. Check in guy couldn’t find our reservation, which was fine with us.  We didn’t want to stay here after our initial impression.   I did check out bath house, the path to it was by all the junk, inside the bath house was not good at all.  If you don’t mind all the negatives, they were some sites right near Lake Huron. 

 

Would not recommend 

We looked forward to our stay at this campground so close to Mackinaw City. We arrived just before 5 pm behind another camper. Walter was having difficulty handling both of our check-ins: he couldn’t find the other camper’s reservation (apparently not a one-off) and then his computer kept freezing while processing ours. The process to get both of us checked in took almost 30 minutes. 

  

The advertised group gathering gazebo seemed to have been taken over by the office; I saw no other covered gazebo. And the fire pit was horrible! It spewed toxic smoke the entire time we were checking in (I had to keep stepping outside). As Becky’s review mentioned, there was junk surrounding the “office” and close by area. 

  

The RV sites did not have any separation/privacy between them. We had reserved a water/electric site but in the end, chose one of the tent sites that faced the lake. We didn’t even see a number indicating what site it was– it was mostly a large grassy area. 

  

The mosquitos were horrible (I realize this is not the fault of the campground although the grass was a bit tall). 

  

Although I’ve seen worse, the restrooms were just passable. The floor was wet. At least there was soap and paper towels. Did not use the shower so cannot comment on that.

  

The best part of this campground is the view of Lake Huron. As advertised, there is a (far-off) view of the Mackinaw Bridge from the beach, but you have to look through the wall of mosquitoes. 

  

It’s my understanding this is a city-run campground and if that is correct, we expected better. In order for me to give this more than two stars, it would have to:

• cost less ($50 was way too much money to pay for this campground),

• have a more efficient check-in system, and

• be cleaned up of all the junk lying around. 

  

If we would not have lost all our money, we would have ditched and looked elsewhere. We didn’t even cook in our van, opting instead to eat in town. We were up and out early the next morning.
