Steamboat Park Campground

A hidden gem with a lot of history. A paddle wheel boat on the Grand river?! Nice and secluded yet close to town and easy access to the highway

Nice concrete pads and patios— FHU. Right on the Grand River. Close to Millennium Park and easy to get downtown. Best bathrooms—- clean, individual, large. Bathrooms cleaned 2x daily.

I have had a very enjoyable stay. The river location is quite nice and the grounds are very well cared for. The site(and all sites, as far as I can see) are quite level. The bathrooms are not just clean and well maintained, but the shower rooms also have a dedicated sink and toilet, which I much appreciate. The washer and dryers in the bathhouse are brand new and take credit cards. While it is near a regional airport, there is close to no air traffic and no commercial traffic I noticed. Overall, probably one of the top 5 campgrounds I have encountered, if the list was for being up to date, well thought out and well provisioned. Everything was top notch.

Quiet and relaxing. Clean and well monitored. Sites right on the river. Riverboat cruises available docking at campground office. We loved it! Will definitely take the 6 hour trip back to stay again!

Friendly helpful staff

This has been one of the best campgrounds I’ve stayed in during my two years full-timing. $50 a night is steep, but it comes with a lot. Full hook up sites that are quite spacious and level. Rigorously cleaned restrooms and showers - the best I’ve seen. Card operated laundry. A salt water pool overlooking the river. Lots of greenery to walk my dog.

As a bonus, they have river cruises that leave directly from the office. These two hours cruises offer drinks and feature live music from local bands for only $16 per person. Definitely check it out.

Only downside is I don’t have great service from my particular spot which is nestled in the very back of the campground. I work full time so this is a little frustrating, but you can get better service near the front of the park. Just pick your site accordingly

We absolutely loved and will return to Steamboat park. Everything you could want in a campground and more! We visited in May in order to go to the Tulip festival in nearby Holland, MI. This park is secluded yet only a few miles from shopping and all Grand Rapids has to offer

This campground is out of the way right on the river. Great place to fish. They are expanding and adding more spots as well. The have full hookup and WiFi. The pool sits looking right over the river. The also really awesome thing about this park is that it is year round. Year round parks are so hard to find in Michigan. This one is awesome. Great spots in the trees and also back in spots right on the river. The only issue we had was the smell of sewer every once in a while. But the park owners were fixing it up and everything else was great. Really cute park with great prices on the river.

This is a quirky little campground tucked away along a large river. It's not large, but half of the sites are directly on a wide fast moving river.  Occasionally a paddleboat goes buy with tourists.  You can fish there, but it's mostly catfish.  The river is pretty, but has brownish water, and I would swim in it.  Beautiful to drink your morning coffee by the water!  They have a small but well maintained pool and playground for the kids.  Their shower and laundry facilities are bright and clean.  We stayed here as a home base for exploring Grand Rapids, which is only a 30 minute drive from the campground.  Would recommend staying here, particularly for folks who like the quiet.
