Beautiful sites, lots of shade, and very friendly people. While the state parks are still reopening, the sites were clean and ready and marked for the right people to be in the right sites.
Easy access back to town, geographical historic sites, a beach to swim in the lake.
Fishing is also available on a pier, breaker.
A bit expensive to get your RV across and even more expensive if you have a large family, but quiet and wonderful retreat from the city!

We were late arriving but they had friendly staff that met us to check us in and guide us to our site (T). The site had full hookups and was considered to be one of the premium sites. It included electric, sewer, water, cable, and WiFi when it worked.
We were stationed near the boat ramp and had a beautiful shaded view of the lake. Our neighbors, most of whom were permanent campers, were nice. Daily visits by the local duck families were entertaining.
We enjoyed visiting the Sleeping bear dunes, Leland where we found a nice small quiet beach to swim in Lake Michigan. We also did two small trips to the light houses nearby and north of Travers City.

Really had a fun time with just my husband and I. The employees were really vested and interested in the part of the cave they had information on. Fascinating how things like this naturally are developed and of course the ability to make them safe to visit for the rest of us was just an all around fun stop on our road trip.
I would definitely come again and spend more time on the trails. Took the 3 dune challenge and also enjoyed the trail to the beach. Easy walk or bike ride on that trail. For sure want to come back again.
Sites are electric only. Spacious. Nice employees and other campers. Made friends with a couple from down the street from us.
Spent the night here in the parking lot with several other RVs. Enjoyed our time in the museum the next morning. The varieties of RVs from time back was just really fascinating!
Take a picnic and enjoy the open space. There are tours but they were closed when we were there. We enjoyed are time and just walking around regardless of a tour.
Fun to find old treasures like covered bridges. Use this as a stop on our way to a destination. Took a picture, drove across and on our way to activities to do.
Still the building stands after Longerburger went out of business. It is starting to get overgrown and need attention. However was a quick fun photo op before it is gone.
No longer open since their bankruptcy. Stopped by to see the empty buildings and take pictures anyway because why not? But don’t make this a family stop!
I won’t lie... for the world’s largest, I expected larger. But it is fully functional and so cute! It strikes every half hour during the day. Get there, watch it, and head on your way. Such a fun random stop!
