I spent only one night in this campground in August of 2016. It was absolutely beautiful and I am heading back his summer for several days. I was lucky enough to get a site with plenty of space and a great view, backing right up to the lake.
The campground staff that I met where very friendly and helpful, helping me find a local grocery store for some essentials.
Some of the sites are pretty small and others very open, but all in all, the campground was pleasant.
The bathhouses were clean and appropriately sized, the showers were hot with good water pressure, and the campground was spotless as far as liter was concerned.
Book a site that butts up to the lake for a great view. Make sure you bring bug spray however as the mosquitos were brutal in mid August.
I spent two nights in Fort Wilkins during August of 2016. The weather was beautiful, not too hot during the day, cool for sleeping at night. There is a plethora of things to do in the area, I highly recommend a visit to the Fort in addition to heading out on Lake Fanny Hoe in a kayak or canoe. The bathhouse was small, but the showers were indoors instead of the usual outside entrance. They also provide free wifi from the bathhouses. The park staff were all wonderful, including the actors at the Fort. I loved it so much I'm coming back again this summer!
Sterling is an interesting park, nestled between the Fermi nuclear power plant and the coal powered DTE plant it makes for an unique experience. The sites are all in full sun, with not much privacy between them, but most campers are respectful. The beach is a short walk from any site, mostly sandy with small rocks occasionally. There is a boat launch which is extremely popular and the bass and walleye fishing can't be beat. No boat, no problem. The park has several fishing piers as well as a kayak launch into a small inlet which is navagatable all the way to the beach, approximately two miles. There is a bike path that will take you all the way to the Historic Rasin River Battlefield and then to downtown Monroe. Additionally, all of the sites in this park have 30amp electric while also boasting quite a few sites with full hookup. Every site has a blacktop pad for parking or trailer setup, with many pull thru sites available.
