TravelerThis one was very cool. We had a great time. The “camp” spots are about 1 mile before the lighthouse and outhouse bathrooms. But there was two established campsites that are near the entrance of the light house. Both open and with pits. We stayed in the second one. It was very nice to have open space. We were the only ones who were there so we have the whole area to ourselves. I will also say it was nice to be able to hear the cars coming and going down the road.
TravelerClean bath house, reasonable fee, spacious sites, great staff
GuideThis was our second stay. Stayed on site 70 both times. We had a 35’ trailer last year and 42’ fifth wheel this year. The ferry ride was easy to navigate and when we arrived we were able to just drive right on. Even with our 13’2” clearance they easily accommodated us. Campground check in was easy and smooth, owners were friendly and gave us tips for navigating into our site with a big rig. Overall it’s very quiet and relaxing on the island with plenty of nature things to do. Visit School House Beach (don’t take the rocks!), the lavender farm and for a few extra bucks have seafood at Sailors Pub on the water. We will definitely put this campground in our regular rotation of places to camp.
GuideReally nice sites and you can see the water from most of them. Some sites were muddy but I think it was mostly from how busy it was over Labor Day. Facilities are clean and the camp hosts are so sweet (they have matching vests and serve coffee every morning). Really nice recreational activities (basketball, tetherball, horse shoes) and a trail leading to the picnic shelter and sandy swimming beach.
TravelerRight on the shores of Lake Michigan Most sites have asphalt pads and there is water and electric at the site There is also a dump station on the way in, which was clean and easy to access The sites are fairly close with not much privacy This side of the lake is very Mari so there is no beachfront at all, for people with a boat and wanting to launch it’s perfect but for rock hounds and beach walkers like me not so great. Not much hiking around either.
LegendWe hiked into site 7 and were delighted by the trees covered in moss. The site had a food safe and pit toilet. It rained the whole time, but we loved it and want to return.
LegendOne could camp right on the beach here. The beach is fantastic. There is water available. Cell service is ok. The toilets are repulsive. The sites are overcrowded, thankfully we did not have neighbors. There is traffic noise and a bright light above the toilets means no one will trip on the way to the potty, but you won’t see any stars either.
LegendThis was our first private campground experience and it was marvelous! The sites were private and spacious. The showers were impeccable. There is even a dish washing station. We enjoyed the playground, the game room, lounge and yoga in the morning. The staff are all friendly and friendly helpful.
GuideClean bathrooms. Not overly fancy, but lots of sites and the two families that run this resort are super nice and accommodating. We felt welcomed like family and had multiple interactions with them. Within a minute of Lake Michigan.
