Perfect Spot for Salmon Fishing
This campground is truly a hidden gem! Everyone we met, whether guests or staff, was incredibly friendly. Being new to river fishing, the staff went out of their way to offer helpful tips and suggest the best spots. I really appreciate that the river access is exclusive to campground guests, keeping it peaceful and uncrowded. We will definitely be back!

I loved camping here! Everyone that works here are so kind and helpful! The bathrooms were very clean and temperature controlled. The environment was well taken care of and felt very safe! They have a general store that offers plenty of angler equipment, and household/grocery items. It has a great fishing and kayaking spot as well; just note that the nearby river is a bit shallow for the kayak rentals. It’s only about a 20 minute drive from Sleeping Bear Dunes too! I will definitely return. :)

The good and the bad
The host was friendly and accommodating, but a couple of things I feel need to be addressed the bathrooms were clean every day, but the two showers they had in the guy's control knobs were not working, and one shower barely had any pressure. The girls only had one of the two working. It was very tight, close to campsites, but the river was Beautiful. Besides that, it is close to sleeping Bear Dunes and the Platte River, as well as great bike trails. Another thing not mentioned in the description was that you are not allowed to have a tent on the river sites, so we needed to rent a separate site, which cost us an extra $500 for the stay along with our campsite. And we didn't get reimbursed for the additional car that we were charged for when we initially booked it for one campsite, which should've been included when we purchased the second campsite. Other then that i think it is a good csmpground overall. Dean

The staff was friendly and responsive when I mentioned that the camp site was missing a fire ring and picnic table. They brought the two items over within minutes. The bathrooms were clean.

The site was a bit small and there was no picnic table, which neither would stop us from going back. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the bathrooms were clean. The campground was in a good location, near stores and other attractions, everything was easily accessible. I really enjoy my time there and would go back again anytime we want to visit that part of our beautiful state!
