This place is a diamond in the rough! It is absolutely gorgeous! Clean bathrooms, well-maintained sites, and friendly camp host.

My only complaint is that the camp host lets his dog roam around freely. He's a friendly little thing, but when you travel with dogs (like we do) and this little guy thinks the whole campsite is his territory, things can escalate quickly. One of the other campers scooped him up and delivered him back to the camp host after an altercation with his own dog.

If you go, try to get spot #23. It has a private deck, not on the water, but WORTH it! If you can get a spot on the water, you won't be disappointed. The view is incredible. This is probably our favorite campsite so far.

Just be prepared for a long drive if you need supplies. The closest town is Camden, which is about a 45 minute drive and has limited options. Selma isn't much further away (about an hour drive) and has more options.

What a wonderful hidden gem!! This was our last stop on a month long trip to the upper peninsula of Michigan. It was also our first Army COE experience. Beautiful park and facilities!! We were on the reservoir and the site was perfect!! Concrete pad and wonderful shade! Don’t let the remote drive to park worry you…although it was a concern as we arrived ~ we would absolutely stay here again!!!

Loved the campground. It was raining very hard when we were coming in and my truck / camper was covered in mud! I won’t come back until someone paves the remaining entrance road.

Chilatchee Creek Park was a great experience. The area was quiet, green and fun. The only thing we didn't see was a dumping station for RVs. I recommend this park to anyone who likes being in nature and away from the everyday hustle and bustle.

Very happy they have a laundry room!! With rainy weather and moving from one campground to another and , of course, small space for extra clothes in our rv this is a deal maker!!! Thank you.
Several other campgrounds have closed their laundry room because of laziness, opportunity to not have to provide the needed services to give extra sanitary protection to the camper. Boo to Fortland Campgrounds..it’s management choices to not reopen their laundry!!!
