Nice campground with good size campsites. Only bad thing is that it's kind of creepy how the locals constantly drive through on their golf carts like they are scoping things out. It's not just one or two but dozens of them throughout the day and going way above the posted speed limit.

Beautiful campground right on the lake. Great views right from our campsite. Pit potties were as clean as possible. Hand pump for water which kinda looks like ginger ale. Paved road and aprons in each site. Only issue is rule enforcement. Rule 2 , campsite must be occupied first night. The two pictured just dropped and ran. No sign of them since. Either the rules don't apply to them, or they are... Beautiful campground right on the lake. Great views right from our campsite. Pit potties were as clean as possible.

The two pictured just dropped and ran. No sign of them since. Either the rules don't apply to them, or they are not enforced. Unfair to campers who play by the rules. Hope they aren't the "loud generator all night" types.

Small campground with two separate loops. We were at site 7 and although it is next to the water, there’s no access to it from this site unless you go to your neighbors site which does. Also, the sites neighbor a residential neighborhood so you may here screaming and yelling across the lake as we did. You may also wake up in the middle of the night to several dirt bikes cruising around as we did a... Small campground with two separate loops.

Man, this is a hidden secret of a park. It's neat and tidy, with these terrific sand bottom lakes. It's only 12 miles from Tawas and close to both water and off-road recreation options. Fishing, snowmobiling, ORV, Kite boarding, you name it. If you are looking for a primitive campground and only need a well and a pit potty, this is a good option. Campsites all have asphalt pads for campers and the... Man, this is a hidden secret of a park. It's neat and tidy, with these terrific sand bottom lakes.

Campsites all have asphalt pads for campers and the road into the campground is paved the whole way.
