Reviews
I stayed here during my first visit to Sleepy Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The host was super friendly and made sure I was all set when I arrived just after sunset. I even got upgraded to a better spot without asking.
This gas been my go-to campground for over 7 years now. The location is perfect, 20-30 minutes from everywhere you want to go in the National Lakeshore and quiet at night for restful sleep. Ask for lot 60, best electric site they offer!
Great value campground within close driving distance of sleeping bear dunes. Very quiet and spacious sites, convenient dump station, good prices (NULL nightly for electric RV hookup), although you pay for that by not having WiFi or free showers(.50 cents per 3 minutes). Would definitely recommend to others looking to visit the dunes and nearby attractions!
This is a nice, quiet and well kept little campground! The rustic tent sites are well spaced from each other too. We actually appreciated the coin operated showers because we had hot water on demand!
This was a fantastic campground for our larger group. The group sites were very spacious and secluded — perfectly shaded and easy access to the toilets. It was quiet the whole time, and a perfect location for accessing all of the dunes-related activities. One of the best tent-friendly campgrounds I’ve ever stayed at! We’ll be back.
