Very nice people at camp store and on the phone. Beautiful location. Bathhouses are kept clean. Sites are pretty spacious for a private campground! Playset and yard games available. We come every year!

Such a beautiful campground. We stayed on a site in the "old" part of the campground. A whole new section with dozens of sites was just recently opened. And you would think that the desirable sites would be the new ones.

Such a beautiful campground. We stayed on a site in the "old" part of the campground. A whole new section with dozens of sites was just recently opened. And you would think that the desirable sites would be the new ones. But the older sites have been so well maintained that for us it was better to take advantage of the beauty of the more mature trees and vegetation. Our son camped with his family in the site next to ours, and we all had a great time. The grandkids took advantage of the beautiful pools. Our son used the washers and dryers and said they were handy and clean. We reserved the same site for next year, and added a couple of days so we could enjoy the campground and the local area for an even longer time. We would recommend this campground to anyone who asks

Loved the pools, showers were clean and great water pressure. Just a little disappointed at the size of our site and how close they were to your neighbor camping beside you. Location was great near a lot of great things to do. Looked like there was some pretty good sites but we unfortunately didn't have one.

Timberline is everything you could want from a campground and more! We stayed in a very spacious tent site that was a short walk from the clean showers and restrooms. To compliment these nice facilities were very accommodating and friendly employees. I also appreciated being able to buy ice and firewood on site. This was an excellent place to relax as we explored Lake Michigan and the dunes. We'll... Timberline is everything you could want from a campground and more!
