McCollum Campground

Beautiful campground with well spaced sites. Only electric hookup but they look like they are expanding the RV camping area and those newer sites will have water as well. Can’t beat this park for beautiful trails and overlooks.

Beware Site 25! Very hard to get into! My husband is a professional B-double truck driver and getting our 28ft trailer on there got him sweating a bit!

Hidden Gem in Kalamazoo!

We stayed here for a couple of weeks while we were moving out of our house and we loved it. Despite having lived near Kalamazoo for seven years, we had never visited this park previously. The site are large level concrete pads with grass dividing the sites. All full hookups. The park has a lovely series of paved walking paths and a lake for swimming, and there is a trail that goes from the park right down into Kalamazoo (Kalamazoo River Trail). Highly recommend this campground.

Good trails

We enjoyed our stay here. The park has great trails for hiking and biking. The bison exhibit and ranger programs are great too. The campsites are variable, size and privacy definitely depends on the site you book. The potable water is brown and smelly.. be sure to bring your water filter! But we did enjoy our weekend here.

One of the best beaches in southern Michigan

The campsite is pretty basic, but has electricity and water. It’s just quite dusty and there is zero privacy.

But it’s right next to Weko beach. And the best thing is that just south of Weko, there is miles of beach that belongs to the dunes state park and dogs are allowed. You can walk for miles and there were very few people there when we visited. We really loved it.

Big grassy sites overlooking the pond

We really enjoyed our weekend here. We were at one of the big group sites overlooking the pond. Very affordable with water and electricity.

A few trails to walk around the property, and not far to Manistee (bakery downtown is the best in the state).

Will definitely be coming back here.

Dump station available

We didn’t stay here. But there is a good dump station that you can pay $5 to use. Helpful if you’re staying at one of the nearby state parks that don’t have a dump station.

Quiet private campsites

Great grassy sites with vegetation between each site providing privacy. Some good trails along the lake and electricity available at the campsites.

Water is a hand pump so be sure to fill up prior to arriving, and electricity points can be up to 50 ft from your site, so bring a long extension!

Great DNR staff, very helpful and beautiful campground.
