Chute pond park is one of my favorite campgrounds to stay at. They have reasonable rates, clean bathrooms and almost all sites are electric. There’s lots to do the whole weekend whether you want to go hiking, fishing, boating, small cliff jumping, or take a walk to slippery rock. This year they also have now available kayaks for rent at $20 per hour.

This was our first experience with a “bells and whistles” type campground. And we were very pleased with the quality of the amenities that we have previously done without.
The newer playground is now open/free and includes a pickleball court, which was enjoyed by everyone. There is also a nice little convenience store and a bar/restaurant with a patio that overlooks the play area. It’s a great setup for parents who feel comfortable letting their kids play at a distance.
The toilets and showers were just spotless and so clean. That was honestly such a pleasant and welcomed surprise.
We were fortunate to have a more wooded spot within the circle section of the campground but it was not as wooded/secluded as other camping experiences we’ve had. But we knew this going in and were really pleased with the amount of greenery we got along with the amenities.
Would definitely come back!

The views are beautiful but all the camping spots are grass, we instantly sunk the second we tried to park ! Bring blocks if you want to stay!

Really nice park! Some sites suffer from rather uneven parking spots with odd fire pit placements. There are plenty of really nice spots however. The Forrest is mature and very pretty, deer and other wildlife are abundant….including the Canada geese who leave their greasy calling cards all over the grassy lakeside areas. The nearby town has most of what you need. Overall, nice and quiet state park!
GuideGreat views of Lake Michigan! Beautiful sandy beach just a short walk away! Really nice playground for the kids. Overall, one of our favorite places to connected camp!
RangerAgain, we stayed here for one night on our way elsewhere. We have to come back and make it our destination next time. Clean bathrooms… excellent camp hosts. Weekdays in the fall.. so quiet and peaceful.

We camped with a RV; I felt like I was at the Hilton having water and electricity hook up. The view out our back window was spectacular!!
TravelerNice spot to hit up for the weekend. Fairly large sites and the bathhouse was rather clean. Downside if your into biking there isn’t much options other than the roadways. Didn’t check out the beach as it was cool out but seems pretty decent with large grassy area.
GuideBeautiful place right on a gorgeous Sandy beach. Immaculate shower house with coin op laundry. Will visit again.

we had about 15 kids and anything they did she would yell at them , the out houses on the property we the worst smelling ones i have ever encountered, they were filthy and have not been cleaned in months the toilet seats are cracked and are about 10+ years old the stinch would roam over to all of our campsites and would just about make you puke, the miniture golf coarse should be free it has not been swept off all season and is in need of major repairs , out of about 10 games in the game room 4 worked

Beautiful campground, wonderful company but horrible staff.

A last minute trip took us to this area and the online booking made it so easy to find availability. We were extremely pleased with the friendly and accommodating staff. The site we booked was very level and spacious for our toy hauler. They have many things to offer at the store where you check-in including: tap beer, cute local goods and crafts, and anything you may have forgotten to pack on your camping trip! The hosts were so friendly and accommodating. You can tell there is great care and a commitment to growth toward this campground. I would check out their website for any upcoming events. If you’re looking for an event, an adventure down the river or a charming wooded campsite, I would recommend this place every time.
GuideThe site is not close to the river and is very rustic. 45 US-Dollar the night includes electrical hook up. No water at the site. The host is very nice

ScoutThe most beautiful showers and amenities I've seen camping so far! We are fairly new campers but this place wowed us! On our list of where we'd like a seasonal site!
Legend
General: Pride of ownership is evident throughout the campground and there are many different types of accommodations: tent, electric and water, (including some classified as prime), full hook-up, cabins, and yurts. There are also seasonal sites and travel trailer rentals. This campground was as busy as I would expect for Door County in the summer. We checked in at the well-staffed office (open until 9 pm) at which time our site was assigned.
Site Quality/Facilities: Since there are so many different kinds of sites, they vary greatly. Our non-hookup site (#104) had an L-shaped driveway which was just a bit awkward to back our campervan into but not impossible. This site would not have been suitable for a large RV. Some of the tent sites in this loop (#111-113) were called “hideaway” tent sites as they had very long driveways and more privacy. Many of the sites are wooded and there is varying separation between sites but more than adequate. The premium sites have the most privacy and many of these have no one behind them.
Bathhouse: There are two bathhouses, and each is closed for a two-hour period each day. They were immaculate (possibly the cleanest campground bathrooms I have ever seen!). The shower, while a bit on the small side, had nice hot water and plenty of hooks to hang clothes and toiletries. They were clean.
Activities/Amenities: The campground itself has much to offer: playground, recreation area with volleyball net, laundry, dishwashing station, fish cleaning station, recreation room with pool table and arcade games, lounge with fireplace, couches, and books, a camp store, and doggie stations. A couple of hiking trails lead from the campground, including one to Grandma’s Swedish Bakery (highly recommend at least one visit). Nearby kayak and SUP rentals. There is much to do in Door County for active and less active pursuits; this campground is located on the quiet side of the peninsula, but it does not take long to drive to other activities.
This is not our typical type of campground. We used to live within two hours of the northern part of the Door Peninsula, so we only took day trips here; camping here is new to us but we are enjoying exploring many different options.
LegendHave stayed here twice! Both at hike-in sites surrounded by woods and neighbors far enough away but friendly when encountered. Lots of RV and other tent and camper options as well, smartly planned campground. Superb plumbing facilities ( didn’t use the showers but they looked clean and private rooms for each stall) and even better beach, picnic area with volleyball and tennis, endless hiking and boating opportunities. This park offers it all!
TravelerThe owners are passionate about providing an excellent camping experience. It is not a normal campground, sites are very spaced out, group sites can accommodate up to 30 people per site. Large groups of campers come to explore natures untouched wolf river and experience white water rafting together. Groups have a very unique bonding experience through these river trips. They have a convenience store that magically has anything anyone may ever forget for peace of mind that you won’t have to leave your secluded nature sanctuary. Guests don’t want to leave and cannot wait to come back!
RangerBeautiful park with lots of options to camp lakeside. Many sites are very close together, so if privacy is important… choose wisely. Wonderful camp hosts had hot cocoa and coffee to share… great for a cool morning. We happened to visit during the Halloween celebration weekend… so it was overrun with kids. Not a deal breaker at all… but I think we may have chosen a different park had we known. Neighbors next to us really enjoyed themselves… maybe a bit too much! All said… we would camp there again… but only if we can get a lakeside site.
TravelerHad a blast! Bbq and more! Swimming everyday and even kayak rentals. !!
TravelerNice state park campground with grassy, but tight sites. Located right on Lake Michigan. Very nice beach. Showers were okay, but always seemed a little dirty
RangerHad the best time staying in a very large and warm cabin
RangerBeautiful campground. Stayed here for 7 nights back in 2017. Showers were very clean. Quiet and peaceful.
My wife was scared the first night because she heard noises in the woods, Turned out just to be some porcupines coming into the camp site during the night. Lol.
When it was very dark it seems the tree trunks would glow, not sure if it was the moss or some kind of bioluminescence bark or something, really cool.
We will definitely come back here again, and we tell all our friends who go to Door County about it.
RangerWe stayed here for a night back in 2015.
We were in a road trip and started looking for a place to spend the night. They had sites available. Seemed like a nice campground, quiet and peaceful. The site we had was flat and had a nice spot for a tent on the grass .
We would camp here again,

We thought we had a small site- until we got there. Site 86 is the smallest on the map but it is not small at all! We have a 33 1/2 ft 5th wheel and had plenty of space. We could have had some tents on the site if we wanted to! The fire pit was away from the level area the RV is to be parked. The electric and water were a little farther away than typical but not too bad.
The owners are awesome and worked with us on our reservation- my friend set the site and I paid for it later. Everyone we spoke to with a seasonal site was very nice and helpful. The campground was quiet for the most part. You could hear there were people were out at their sites but no one was being loud or obnoxious. It was perfect!
Tubing was a bit of a different experience to start off but ended good. We waited for about 40 minutes for the bus. Once the bus came, everyone piled on. We had our own tubes so we put them on ourselves as well as our cooler. We rented two cooler tubes- one for my cooler and one as a “dry” area. We we’re on the bus for about 25 minutes due to too many people getting on and two large groups having to decide who was getting off. Once we arrived at the drop off site- all the cooler tubes were grabbed right away. They made sure we got both tubes we paid for before we pushed off down the river. I was very thankful for this!!!!! My personal tube popped half way down the river due to it being old so I’m very happy we had the other two tubes!
The river was nice! Low in some spots but we never had to get out and drag our stuff. Some trees to paddle around occasionally, but nothing out of the normal.
One thing I was surprised at was this campground does not have a bar and or grill.
ScoutLots of beautiful sights to see. Perfect hiking trails. Clean showers. Busy but everyone is super kind. Be sure to buy your groceries prior to arriving because the grocery store in town nearby is $$$.
ScoutWe lucked out with spot #24. It was perfect, lots of room and directly across from water. Restrooms were kept up and clean. Very nice hosts and pretty quiet campground (when we were there anyway). We will be back.
