Howell Station is close to home so we always book our "first of the year" camping trip there so we can shake out any issues with our RV. This campground is beautiful and well-maintained. Any site you chose you will be happy with!! Take the time to check out Pella's Dutch heritage, it's a beautiful city and you have to check out their bakeries and meat shops. Yum!

We always enjoy camping at Howell Station. Camp sites are well taken care of. Only thing is I wish the wi-fi and t.v. reception was better.

This was our first visit to Howell Station. We loved it. Our kiddo's loved the off-road bike trails through the woods.
