We stayed here the night after camping at Traverse City State Park. This campground was a welcome change. It is a rustic campground, but very beautiful, . The sites are spacious and clean. The campground was very quiet. It is well away from trafic. A beautiful sandy beach on Lake Michigan is an easy short walk away. The campground is... More

My husband and I stayed there this past weekend (Oct 17th) and it was very quiet and nice. We stayed at one of the prime spots, with their own access to the Lake Michigan.

We have stayed at the DH Day many times. Since it is part of the National Park system it is rustic but absolutely beautiful. The campsites are level and the built in grills on the fire pits are nice.

The staff was also very friendly and courteous yet respectful of your privacy. The poison ivy was... More

It is first come first serve. No reservations. Camping with direct access to a beautiful beach on a georgous lake and no crowds. It had everything I wanted, and much more than I expected. Trails, lakes, rivers, canoeing, fishing, hiking, golf on fantastic courses all within a short drive or walk and the list goes on... Views of sunsets that... More

We stayed at this campground a couple of years ago and am headed there tomorrow. This is not the swimming pool, indoor toilet kind of campground. This is outhouse, back to nature campground. The park rangers there are great. They have nightly programs for the kids at the amphitheatre. Some of the things we learned at the programs was how... More
