We stay during their Halloween weekend. They had all kinds of activities going on including haunted hayrides, trick-or-treating, and site decorating contest. They offer golf cart rentals so you can cruise around the campground. It’s very close to downtown Ludington so there is a lot of restaurants just a short drive away. Very nice campground.
Very nice family campground with a lot of things for kids to do. Fishing pond has a lot of bass. My son has caught one every time we’ve been here. Catch and release only. They also have a pool, jump pad, playground, climbing wall, mini golf and petting zoo. We stayed on their Halloween weekend and it was packed full of activities for the kids. Many people in the campground decorated their sites Halloween themed. Very cool. We will be back.
Very nice campground right across the street from Michigan’s Adventure. Firewood, ice, and food all delivered to your site. They have a food counter that sells pizzas, sandwiches and snacks. The pool was very nice and also heated a nice feature when you’re doing fall camping. They also have a good size hot tub. All sites have cement pads and patios. There are a lot of things for kids to do at this campground including arcade, putt putt golf, rock mining, jump pad, and pool. Very nice, well-maintained campground. Definitely on the top of our a list of favorites.
They have a lot of activities to do at this campground, but are very pricey. They have a waterslide into the lake, mini golf, basketball and many other things. They rent golf carts but the prices are double of what I’ve paid at other places. This is a rather large campground so there are a lot of trails that you can bike on or cruise around on the golf cart. I did find it a little odd that their golf cart rental ran from 2 PM to 1 PM following day. They were very strict on this 2 PM to 1 PM policy and would not deviate from it. They also had office hours of 11 to 7 when we were here even though they advertised different hours. Some of the staff also weren’t exactly friendly.
Really enjoyed this campground. They had great fishing. We caught a lot of bass, bluegill, crappie and even a catfish. All catch and release. Lake is privately owned so no need for a fishing license. They have a Lot of sites around the lake, but the sites that run along US 31 can get quite noisy. The people that run the campground are extremely nice and very helpful. They had a really nice swimming area with a folding platform for the kids to jump off from. We will definitely be back.
Nice family campground on a man-made lake. Lots of things to do for kids. Fishing, swimming, playgrounds, jump pads. They also rent row boats, paddle boats, kayaks, tubes, three wheeled bikes and golf carts. There was a little bit of a mixup with our reservation. We were supposed to be on site 178 and ended up on site 109 found out that site 109 was supposed to be part of a large family reunion Group and we ended up taking one of the family members sites that booked two years prior. Also this campground is out in farm country so if the occasional smell of manure and a lot of flies bother you then maybe this isn’t the campground for you. Overall though it was a nice day.
Smaller campground run by Isabella County. This was a very well-maintained campground. We had a site right on the lake and the views in the morning and evening were absolutely gorgeous. We only stayed a couple of nights but wished we would’ve been here longer. They have a nice beach/swimming area, a boat launch and even a kayak launch. We will definitely be back.
This campground was right on the Saginaw Bay. It’s a smaller campground with a lot seasonal campers. It was very quiet the couple of nights we were there. It has a nice beach and playground area that had very few people when we were there. The coolest thing about this campground was the boardwalk it winds back through the woods and marsh and has a lot of raised Outlook platforms to view the scenery. Our site had a paved pad and patio. You definitely want to try and get one of these sites. The other sites were OK, but dirt pad and many of them had marsh behind or surrounding them.
Really nice location on beautiful Lake Huron. They have a really nice beach and swimming area. It is close to Rogers City shops, a really cool lighthouse a few miles away, and Ocqueoc Falls is 15 - 20 minutes away. Visiting the falls was one of the coolest parts of this trip. You can actually swim in them. We had probably the biggest site in the campground. It was what they called an eyebrow site, which basically means a pull-thru on an angle. We had a lot of space on the site and because our awning faced away from the road we had a lot of privacy. This was by far the best state park we’ve stayed at to date.
This is a state park so the main attraction is the location. It’s on Otsego Lake and has a really nice beach and swimming area. They also have a fishing pier and boat launch. It’s close to Gaylord and the city Elk Park. Bathrooms were in ok condition but not great. Most of the sites were dirt sites. The couple nights we stayed here there were storms so some of the sites had a river running through them including ours. Not too bad of a campground though for a state park.
They were very organized at this campground. Every weekend they have a theme. We stayed when they had the country western weekend. They had all kinds of stuff going on for kids. Pony rides, wagon rides, petting zoo, games and activities. They also had a country music concert in the park one evening. The pool was very nice, but we found at times it was extremely busy. It would of been nice if they had a swimming area on the lake but they didn’t. This is a Christian campground so they are very strict on alcohol consumption. On your site only, but not allowed anywhere else in the park. Overall we had an enjoyable stay.
This is a great campground for tubing down the river. They rent the tubes right at the campground, take you up river, and then you get out of the river back at the campground. They have a pool, arcade, food window, Restaurant(although it was closed when we were there), and a convenience store right across the street. Our dislikes were they have very narrow roads that were very difficult to maneuver a large trailer. Lots were smaller and hard to back into. And no full hook up sites. We also found the bathrooms to be very disgusting. Very dirty and not kept up.
Didn’t care for this campground. It’s on Rose Lake and has a decent swimming beach, but that’s about the only thing it has going for it. It is run by the county and not very well maintained at all. The restrooms and the camp store were very dated and dirty. There are also a lot of old pines in the campground that were constantly dropping crude all over our trailer. You can tell the trailers that are seasonal here because the entire roof is cover in black debris that falls from the trees. They also have a worm infestation. There were worms all over the place and constantly dropping on you when you sat outside. They were also very unorganized. Nobody that worked at the park knew what was going on. They told us they were going to do sparklers for the kids at dusk. After waiting around 30 minutes while the workers stood around and smoked cigarettes we ended up going back to the trailer. We won’t be back to this campground.
Very nice campground. They had 2 pools with plans to add a third. Many activities throughout the weekend. They use the campers app which is nice because you get alerts about various activities going on. There is a fishing pond, ice cream counter, store with some merchandise and camping essentials. It’s an older campground, but they have done a nice job on upkeep. It’s close to Pentwater and Ludington for shopping, restaurants and breweries. They are currently expanding the campground to add on another 100 sites or so. I think they said around 60 of those sites would be seasonal. One thing we didn’t care for was the sites were a little close together. Our neighbors fire pit was right next to our slide. Overall though it was a nice experience and would definitely go back.
I wasn’t a fan of this campground. Silver Lake and the beach are the main attraction here. It’s also close to the sand dunes as well. The sites were not that big and most of the sites are electric only. Our electric box for our site was in the front passenger side of the lot. Aren’t most RV plugs in the rear driver side? Any way when I went to complain the response I got was basically “oh well”. Ended up having to buy a $75 extension cord so we could stay here. We also had poison ivy all over our site. Probably won’t be back.
This is a great location for a campground. Close to Sleeping Bear Dunes, hiking trails, biking trails, and canoeing/kayaking on the river. It’s back off the road a ways so it’s quite and it is well maintained and clean. There are 2 sides to this campground: one is your standard RV campground and the other is a luxury RV resort for class A motor homes and 5th wheels only. A couple of things that we really liked about the campground is they have daily trash pick up at your site and they have a food truck at the campground. The pool was very clean and well maintained. A couple of things we didn’t care for is outside of the pool and a small playground there wasn’t really much for kids to do. There were no planned activities or anything. I also found it odd that even though Covid restrictions have eased up they are still operating under a lockdown. There store was window service only. If you did want to go inside someone had to unlock the doors for you and you were required to wear a mask. Other than we had an enjoyable stay here.
This campground used to be one of our favorites but it seems things have changed a little since the last time we’ve been here. It’s still a nice campground but there were a few things we weren’t happy with. Let’s start with the pros though. The bathrooms are very clean, they have a heated pool, there is an AJ’s family fun center out front, it’s close to downtown Pentwater and the beach, and they have some nice merchandise in the camp store. Now the cons. There were absolutely no activities going on at the campground and it was Memorial weekend. Having camp activities is standard at most campgrounds and something our kids enjoy. I was very surprised by this. Another con is some of the camp sites were very overgrown . The grass on our site was about a foot long. I don’t think it have been mowed all year. The WiFi in the park was also very spotty. And finally they are extremely strict on their visitor policy. We had some friends show up that were camping near by. They wanted to check out our campsite to see if it was someplace they’d like to camp down the road. The office wouldn’t let them in unless they paid $5 per person which would of cost them $30. I tried to explain to them they weren’t staying more than a few minutes but it didn’t matter they wouldn’t allow it. Overall we had a good weekend but not sure if we’ll be back any time soon.
We had a great time at Hidden Ridge RV Resort. This is part of the Sun RV Resort group, which is a national chain. It’s a little pricier than other camp grounds but you get what you pay for. All sites are good size sites with a cement pad and very green grass. It is also very well run and maintained. Some of the things they have to do are swimming pool, playground, basketball courts, fishing, kayaking, jump pad, and lots of paved roads for bike riding. Because of the size of this campground most people get around by golf cart. We rented a golf cart from them, which our kids had a blast just going for rides around the campground. One downside to this place is there is not much shade. Most of the bigger trees are around the perimeter so most sites are in the sun all day. Overall we had a great time though and would definitely go back.
Had a great experience at this campground. Everybody was extremely nice. We couldn’t fit our trailer into the site we reserved. They were very understanding and found us a pull thru site to use. There was lots for the kids to do at the campground including playground, jump pad, mountain bike trails, hayrides, barrel rides, and a pool. Although we were there a little too early in the year to use the pool. They also offered plenty of activities throughout the weekend. Great place. Will definitely go back.
There is plenty to keep you occupied at this campground. Full disc golf course. Trails for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding. Basketball court and playground. Beach area for swimming and a pier for fishing. Sites were nice size. Some sites are pull through and many of the pads looked like they were fairly new. It was a little bit of a walk to the lake and disc golf area but not too bad. There is also a parking lot at the lake so you can always drive there as well. There is no camp store so you’ll have to drive to either Laingsburg or Ovid if you need anything.
