What a cute little campground tucked away from the city of Mio. There are multiple places to get to the river. I appreciated having trash and the pit toilet. There was always toilet paper in there which was a bonus. Nice large sites too!

Camping site was very short. Also noticed a lot of dead trees that could fall during high winds.

Love the camping but was unimpressed with how little the previous campers or staff clean up. There was toilet paper and tampons all over the site when I arrived and I had to clean before setting up. I believe this to be attributed to the thousands of flies that attack when using the provided toilet that makes campers choose to go to the bathroom outside instead. Normally I love this place but the staff and campers both need to clean up better. Maybe fly tape in the toilet would be helpful.

A beautiful area with trails that lead down to the Au Sable River. Bring a bow saw & hatchet for cutting fallen trees into firewood, or else find someone selling it locally. I went to the (Amish) General Store on Kittle Road & found a guy selling split Birch wood. I've only been to the Au Sable Loop in the Fall. Pretty cool at night, but there were hardly any bugs that bothered us.

Beautiful, small forest campground near the river. Campsites are wooded and private.
One of my favorite campgrounds.
