Swimmers and bridge watchers find direct access to Lake Huron's shoreline at this family-owned campground that operates from mid-May through mid-October. Sites accommodate RVs up to 45 feet with electric and water hookups, though the tight spacing requires careful maneuvering for larger rigs. The property features mature trees and a small beach area with views across the water to the Mackinac Bridge.
Most sites lack privacy screening between neighbors, creating a social atmosphere that appeals to families and groups. "The sites are tight, most have no bushes/trees," notes Cynthia K., who recommends the waterfront sites 26, 27, 28, 76, and 77 for their lake views and beach proximity. The perimeter sites back up to chain-link fencing with wooded views beyond.
Campers can swim at the small beach, relax on swings and benches facing the water, or use the game room near the office that houses a pool table, air hockey, and pinball machine. The campground offers discounted ferry tickets to Mackinac Island with shuttle pickup service. A small playground sits near the lake for children.
The bathrooms and showers receive consistent praise for cleanliness, though the shower facilities have raised thresholds that may challenge those with mobility issues. WiFi coverage proves spotty throughout the property. The dump station handles waste for sites without sewer connections. Campers planning island visits appreciate the convenient ferry access, while those seeking more space between sites might consider Mackinaw Mill Creek Camping for additional elbow room.
This established campground works best for RV travelers and families prioritizing lake access and Mackinac Island proximity over site privacy.
