Great campground. It was our first time visiting that area of the UP.
Small -which we prefer
Great location
Clean
Quiet - for the most part
Next time I will book a site that isn’t next to the private road. The road has a lot of traffic for being private.

Absolutely 1 of our most favorite parks we've ever been to. This is our 2nd time we've been here. It's super quiet, very friendly staff and the restaurant on the property has the most delicious food in the area! Not a negative just a heads up most sites are a bit uneven since the whole property is kinda built on a hill so having some of those orange stackable blocks can be very helpful. Deer everywhere and the property has Apple trees all over.

Back for our 3rd visit here. The restaurant has their liquor license now and the food is as good as it's ever been! The staff in the restaurant is made up of some of the friendliest people we've had the pleasure of being around. Always so happy and fun.

Hands down the best RV park on our trip around Lake Michigan. The park is very well thought out. Good sized sites and offset so you're not window to window. The setting is rural farm area with a view of the bay. Lovely apple orchard and lots of green space for the dogs to play. We even had a white tail doe with a pair of fawns visit the orchard several times.
Clean and well maintained. Some wooded sites and some without trees. The Dock restaurant next door is terrific too.

Absolutely beautiful spot, everything is so picturesque from the sites with limestone (?) forms to very tall trees whose leaves catch the sun, to the bay you can see off the ridge at the side of the hill. Nice sites, but gravel can be uneven. Cell service was non-existant for my wife and I and the wifi is hard to catch in the middle of the park, but it was a great detox. Beautiful beaches all around. Would love to come back.

We have only been here for 1 night out of 3 so far, but we LOVE this campground!! We have only ever camped at State Parks before and this RV park will definitely be put into our yearly rotation! The bathrooms/showers are beautifully clean, the grounds well kept and the views spectacular. It would be nice if there were a few little things for kids like a swing sets or something but I know this campground caters to the older group more. The wifi in the park is also nice! Surprised there is only 1 other camper here in mid May on a beautiful week.
