RATING: ♦♦♦♦♦
  • Length of stay: 7 days
  • Cost of stay: $198.00
  • Discount: no discount, and need to buy MI vehicle pass
  • Hook ups: Electric 50amp and water, no sewer but convenient dump station
  • Site number/quality: Don’t exactly remember, but by looking at the map, I believe it was #23 or #25. The site was large and level, with shade and a few shrubs between us and our neighbor. The site was grass and dirt. We were on the edge of the park, with nobody behind us.
  • Park quality: The park is huge, with miles of paved bike trails that go to the beach and thru the wetlands and into town. The park roads are paved. Lots of families camping when we were there. Great spot! The sandy beach is nice, but the water had too much algae for swimming.
  • Access: Easy access, a short drive off I-75
  • Connectivity: Verizon ok
  • Return yes/no?: Yes
  • Notes: Came back to see the Tall Ships Celebration that toured the Great Lakes and anchored at Bay City a week after we left.
