When we checked in, the ranger was so helpful. She told us how to get to the areas that we wanted to explore and showed us where the water and dump stations were.
The bathrooms were very clean. The shower was hot with great water pressure!
We loved our stay—only wish we could have stayed longer!

Very nice campground, the level paved parking on the sites made setup a breeze. Very clean and great dune hiking.

We had a great stay at this campground. Our site was one of the more private ones of which there seemed to be quite a few. It was beautiful there with lots of birds and trees. The bathrooms were nice and cleaned regularly. The loop we were in was nearly silent at night and in the early morning. I almost felt bad getting up and making coffee it was so quite and peaceful. The firewood was available but overpriced and not completely seasoned (I know because it was hard to get lit and then sizzled the whole time it burned) but it burned. The campground was near the Platte River and close to the beach. There was a trail to the beach from the campground which was nice and shaded. We had a very nice stay here.

The road resurfacing is very bad. Its rough and BB sized pits stick to shoes and are in tents and trailers. It is the worst.

The best campground in Michigan in my opinion. Bathrooms & showers are always clean, staff is very friendly, campsites are big & not close together. I’ve been camping here since the 70’s & will continue to return every year!

Our site was great for tent camping. It had a huge pad large enough for our tent, picnic table, fire ring/grill and our chairs. It was also near the restroom/showers and water. There are trees affording some privacy between sites. There were a few mosquitoes but less than expected this time of year.
