We have always enjoyed out stay here. Sites are large enough for privacy yet close enough to visit with your neighbors.
Beautiful setting, level sites,

The campsites are great. We were unable to have a campfire, which was understandable due to drought. We enjoyed hiking across the dam but some trails closed due to storm damage. Enjoyed the Forest History Center nearby, and also two microbreweries in Grand Rapids. All in all a great time with two other couples.
