SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Heavy tree cover defines the atmosphere at Twin Bears Wooded Campground in Indian River, Michigan, where sites range from gravel to dirt and shade is consistent throughout the property. The campground has been under new ownership and reviewers note the bathhouse appears recently renovated and the grounds are well-maintained.

Spread out and relaxing

This is a nice larger campground in the Burt Lake region of Michigan. We stayed here in July and had a wonderful time. There was plenty of space to ride bikes, a nice pool in the shape of Michigan, and even a put put course. We spoke to several regulars who love to come here often. There was plenty of shade and different grades of camp sites to choose from. We stayed here while visiting the region and it wasn't far from many popular attractions the the upper part of lower Michigan.

Fantastic campground! Highly recommended!

This is an absolutely outstanding and beautiful campground. I had read reviews from a few years back when previous owners ran the park and was a bit skeptical but when we arrived we were blown away. The park is neat, immaculately clean, well organized, the bathhouse looks newly renovated and is spotless, the pool area was nice, and the mini golf was pretty awesome! They have weekend activities including outdoor movies and fun events for kids. The owners are unbelievably friendly and accomodating! This really is a wonderful park and I cannot wait to stay here again. Internet: T-Mobile is LTE with 2-3 bars, AT&T is blazingly fast, Verizon is LTE with 3 bars. Starlink might work but the park is very wooded so it might be difficult finding a space with a clear view of the sky. The park doesn't have WiFi. Mail: Amazon(UPS) delivers here using the 2201 M-68 HWY address. Mail delivered via USPS to this address will be held at the local post office. If you need to receive USPS mail, make sure you send it to their P.O. Box 577.
