Beautiful campground, lots to do, great bike riding, really nice rangers, well kept up and very clean. Very happy they had a dish washing station. Only complaint is that there were only 2 showers on our loop 3 and 20” wait for a shower was not unusual. Most campgrounds that size have at least 4 showers per loop.

Great campground and campsite. The site is close enough to the (very clean) showers and bathrooms, but spacious enough to feel some privacy. The tent space is very large (which is in addition to the paved pad where the trailer, RV, car etc must be parked). I didn't have a hammock with me, but there was a good spot for one at the campsite.

Platte River will always hold a special place in our heart! We started camping here and loved it so much - we come back every year. The woods, the beach, and everything that makes Northern Michigan an amazing is at your doorstep here. Thank you to the park employees who do a fantastic
Job of keeping the park clean and well run!

Platte River is spectacular and the NPS staff has always, always, always been fantastic. I've stayed there as many as a dozen times over the last 30 years.
