About

Pop open your lawn chair and relax by the crackling fire. Most sites have room for 4 folks, a camper or tent, a boat, a dog or two and a few kiddos :D We have a tiny cafe, a small playground, a fish station, warm showers and bike/kayak rentals! Hop on the Betsie Valley trail for a 3 mile adventure to ice cream, beaches, shops...so much! We are not a big concrete pad RV park, we are a nice small family owned campsite. We try and keep it quiet and calm (but still fun!) If you are looking for the far North Electric Forest, this is not the place. What we are is a great base-camp for all your awesome Northern Michigan adventures!

Extremely accommodating

We Were last minute campers and they went above and beyond to accommodate our last minute arrival. The What an ice was very reasonably priced and plenty of it! Anything you could want you would find in their store And they offer a great recommendations for nearby attractions/events going on for the weekend and restaurants. We will be returning next year for sure!!

Not impressed

We weren't impressed. Sites look level but it's deceiving. Bath house was so so. Manager on duty the day we arrived was having a personal meltdown and took it out on us when we asked to move our assigned site to the one next to us. We were having a family get together and trying to keep everyone together. Campground was a bit rustic for our liking but it was packed. Seems it is a favorite of Michigan's for boating and fishing. Overall it is a decent campground, just not for our liking.
