I went to the campground in August last year and it was FANTASTIC! My family just stayed in a tiny campsite (and it was quite tiny) BUT there was a little trail in the back of our site that led to the water and it was BEAUTIFUL! Plus the bathrooms are the cleanest bathrooms ever. You won't even know you're... More

My parents started camping here over 30 years ago and after our last experience we will be going somewhere else our 2013 vacation. The selection of sites were slim my dad let the office know that my boyfriend is deathly allergic to bees and asked where the best place to camp would be considering that. They highly recommended the budget... More

I checked with my staff but no one remembers this guest so I can't reply directly to what the staff did and why. My brother, the ground manager, is very allergic to bees so we try to be on top of finding and removing bees that end up where they shouldn't be. We can only say that bees are not... More

We stayed May long weekend and will be back. Our cabin was clean, comfortable and spacious. Splurge for a cabin with a bathroom. Worth every penny. Good location to ferries and Mackinaw City. We ended up heading back to the cabin early each night to enjoy campfires and the grounds. Very well maintained.

Stayed here during labor day weekend, and the campground was probably half full overall. I will say if you need a last minute place to stay during this weekend, then stay here because they have over 600 campsites and I am under the impression that a lot of these sites are only used once per year if that. Well the... More

Just spent a week here and can't say enough good things about it. Our site was huge, fhu, 50 amp, a block off the water. The roads are well taken care of -- no potholes and watered down every day to keep the dust down. The staff was friendly and always helpful. Free shuttle to the ferry and a discount... More

I haven't camped for years and we decided to give it a whirl, albeit in a tent. :) I felt the showers were nice, clean, and available. I didn't have to wait to use them at all. The campground itself is very clean as are the restrooms. We did not utilize the pool as it was unseasonably cool. The miniature... More

Its odd that someone can stay at our park and not mention the incredible natural setting or view (unmatched by any other campground in northern Michigan) - I wonder what they were looking for? When I see a review like this where the guest said their site was small, I wish they would say that they chose what is actually... More

Despite reading the bad reviews before we left for Mackinaw City, we stayed on Road B Lot 411 as it was the only place we could find available for the whole week. Our expectations were low and since I had read about the fire pans before we left, I brought along an electric fry pan with us to cook with... More

Traveled with 34ft 5th Wheel, stayed in a full hookup site Row 4. Water front provided great views of the Straights of Mackinaw and Mackinaw Island. Very crowded and TIGHT LOTS. Could not deploy awning due to limited space with lot size and scrub trees. Sites were somewhat level, only had to use one layer of leveling pads. Number of... More
