RV camping in Michigan

Name: Michigan
Address: Michigan
Rating: 4.83

RV camping in Michigan couldn’t be easier. With more than 10,000 lakes and more state parks and forests than any other state—your next outdoor adventure is always just a short drive away. Set out along the wild Upper Peninsula where you can park your rig right by the sand dunes in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore or road trip along the remote Keweenaw Peninsula. Ludington State Park Beach, Silver Lake State Park, and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore have plenty of RV camping along the shores of Lake Michigan, and are hotspots for family campers through summer. If you’re heading Detroit way, one of the best RV campgrounds is found at Sterling State Park on the shore of Lake Erie. Fifteen state park campgrounds stay open through winter, but equip your RV with snow chains and pack your snowshoes, as snow blankets most of the state from November through March.

Baroda, MI · 3 sites · Tents, RVs

This is a 3rd generation "Family Farm" of a different sort I suppose. Seems there's a bit of everything here, and arguably not enough of anything. At least for conventional farming. So we've learned to do things a bit differently.Our main crop is wine and juice grapes since our topography, climate, and soil type makes it a premier location for that. But with 30+ acres of forested hillsides, low ground, and natural areas we've evolved into a mixed farm and forest enterprise. Our goal is to utilize the productivity of all our property while still retaining the basic character and usefulness of the wild areas. Letting each thing be what it wants to be and does best on it's own. Flow, not force.So our year starts early with tapping maple trees and making maple syrup. Plus there's grape trimming about this time as well. When the forest floor starts to green up a bit later, we start digging Ramps, or Wild Leeks in the woods. Most of these will go to the more trendy Chicago restaurants, but we also have some local sales. Next comes inoculating winter-cut logs with Shiitake spawn for next years mushroom production. This year we also conducted a few hands-on workshop seminars on mushroom growing as well. Then it's on to our raised bed herb & veggie gardens. (Fresh herbs are just so much fun to cook with!) We grow enough for our own yearly use, as well as some for direct sales. Summer keeps us busy tending all the different crops here and trying to keep up. But there's that steady progression of fresh veggies to eat. Yum !!! Fall brings our annual Grape U-Pick in September and October. And we try to time related crops like mums, pumpkins, and gourds for this same time frame. Makes the place a bit more interesting. Late fall is when we bring in firewood to heat the house and workshop. Stacks of wood everywhere. Hopefully before the 1st snow. In winter it's time to fire up the woodworking shop and be a bit creative. Build furniture, equipment maintenance, who knows what next years projects will include. I like to keep everybody guessing.So, that's what goes on here. You're welcome to check it out, lend a hand, relax back at camp, walk the vineyards and/or forest, or just breathe and relax. That's up to you. But I would recommend visiting a few of the fine local wineries. Seems there's a festival going on at one or another of them just about every weekend. Good music, good wine, good times. And there's the Lake Michigan beaches a few miles down the road.Yeah, this is a pretty casual place here, love meeting new people, very open to civil discussions of all sorts.However, rude, ill mannered people will probably enjoy staying elsewhere. Just say'n.

Heritage Hills isn't called Heritage Hills for nothing! It's situated on 21 acres of what was the original Wawonowin Country Club, a 9-hole golf course that was built in the early 1800s and then closed in the mid 1960s. And now we have a beautiful mix of hardwoods and pines, forests and fields with multiplied non-motorized trails accessible right off the property. The very popular RAMBA bike trails are literally an ‘stones throw’ away! Our biggest site, Fairway Field is big enough for group camping that horse campers love, and one site, the Homestead, with an electric hookup. We don’t have a dump station or trash cans so please pack in and pack out. Phone signal is good throughout the area and we are close to civilization for necessities and only 20 minutes from Marquette. So much stuff to do in this area!

Loved camping here. Friendly, flexible hosts, hot shower, quick access via bike to the Dragon Trail, and I relaxed in the evening in the cozy communal patio/bonfire space. We could hear partying on the water (I think) Fri/Sat evening from the rustic camping area just a heads up. Didn’t bother us.

The site was so big I didnt know where it began or ended. Plenty of privacy and full of nature. The amount of firewood is fair for the price compared to other local areas. We were only there 1 night but had originally planned for 2 or 3 due to a work conflict. Easy set up. Only recommendations would be to have numbered sites for future, but not necessary because the owner was quick to respond to messages.

I really enjoyed my stay at Pickerel Lakeside Campground! I stayed at Site 1, which had both 30A and 50A electrical service. There are no water or sewer hookups at the site, but potable water and a dump station are available at the campground. The site is not a concrete pad, but I found it to be reasonably level and had no trouble getting set up. The absolute highlight was the incredible view of the lake — it made the site well worth it! The campground has pit toilets but no showers. Trash needs to be taken to one of two designated receptacles, both of which were within a reasonable distance from the site. The hosts were very nice, and the campground was a great place to relax and enjoy the lake. I camped during the week (Weds-Fri). Let’s are welcome, but must be on a lead/leash at all times. I would definitely stay here again!

Solid campsite, private and well kept! Nice fire ring/table and private site. As a host myself, the only recommendation would be to put a couple signs in to mark the sites. However, I assume the hosts intend to meet you during check in, removing the need for signage. I would recommend this host to anyone, Excellent Job!

Had a great time pitching my tent in the Rustic Camping area. Drove right up to the spot. There were a few other campers but lots of space in between us, so felt pretty secluded. There is a pristine portapotty a short distance away and there are several fire rings with picnic tables around the area. The outdoor shower was heated and plenty of pressure.
