Rating: 10 8 8 7 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Nice campground, very friendly workers and fellow campers. Good place to relax. They offer fishing, canoe and paddle boat rentals. - You Can Call Me V
(Price reflects the monthly rate of $595 + electric.) This is an older, family-owned and operated park with many seasonal rentals. Navigating the park with our big rig (43-foot 5th wheel towed by a Volvo semi truck) was not a problem. Staff was friendly and quick to help. Bathrooms are dated but clean. Most sites back onto canals, so there are lots of geese and ducks to watch. Sites along the canals have nice trees (cottonwoods, mostly) for shade. There are also some pull-through sites available with no waterfront and no trees. There are 6 washers/dryers for $1.75/load. The "playground" is dinky and the "swimming beach" is not something I'd dip my toe in, mostly for the aforementioned waterfowl but also because it looks weedy and cloudy. Good place to stay for exploring the area or visiting with family (as we did). The park had a big BBQ and fireworks display to celebrate the Fourth of July. - a_elkins

Rating: 9 8 9 8 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Rate is actual nightly fee for 30-amp, electric only. There are 50-amp sites available too. There's an $8 online fee when you reserve, and a non-resident daily fee of $9 when you arrive unless you buy the annual MI State Parks passport. Since this was the first of 5 state parks in our Michigan tour, we bought passports ($33 each) for the truck and both motorcycles. Come on, it's a state park - they're worth keeping up and it's a small price to pay. This park is the only Michigan SP on Lake Erie. The campground is just off the beach, so it's an easy walk even with paddle boards. The water was warm and shallow quite a ways out. Several multi-use paths, about half under water when we were there. You can ride around the lagoons and connect with the River Raisin Heritage Trail, which goes past the National Battlefield, a newer National Park that's a work in progress at a War of 1812 historic site. Close enough to pick up several OTA TV stations from Detroit and Toledo, Verizon and AT&T were just OK. Very nice park, be sure to make reservations well ahead of time if you're thinking about a weekend. And if you need to fill up with fresh water, the dump/fill station is just past the first entrance station. Then you get to go back past that first entrance again after you're done filling. It can back up depending on the time and day. Park has several pull-through sites, and all the sites are paved. Some can be sloped! Bathhouses have individual showers, and separate male/female restroom sections. - Denise and Glenn
Price includes non-resident annual state park fee. We were on site 43, which was the outside loop back-in site with electric only. All roads and sites are paved. Lots of grass between sites on this loop. Giant fire ring. Site was long enough for our 35' coach and Honda CRV. Bike path was nice but flooded in spots. Lots of families there for the weekend, but everyone was friendly and most sites were neat. Very quiet even with a full park. The beach is nice and fairly wide. The first gate that let's you into the State Park usually had lines and a wait to get in. Even if you have a pass. Then you have to stop again to check into the campground. The staff were fast and efficient. - Dream Chasers
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for William C. Sterling State Park »Beautiful park right on the lake. No trees, no shade, but site was flat and long. My only complaint was that in addition to the nightly fee, we had to purchase a daily pass. It was a little less expensive to buy a yearly pass, so that's what we did. There were walking trails along the lake and fishing piers available. We were there for a wedding in Detroit, so didn't spend a lot of time at the park. - Charlie-Pattie

Rating: 8 9 6 6 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: A very clean, nice campground right off I-75 about 30 miles south of Detroit in Monroe. Roads are paved and pads are concrete or asphalt. The pads are only a little wider than your RV and there is no paved patio area. Sites are level, spacious with a tree and nice grass between sites, picnic table and fire ring. There is a pool, basketball and sand volleyball courts, playground and horseshoe area. About 1/2 the sites have sewer and 50amp and most of the rest are no sewer and 30amp. About 2/3 of the sites are backins and rest pull throughs. Sites are long enough for your rig and tow but they seam to allow 2 cars with the second parked on the grass. There is a dump station. Most sites can access satellite. One side of the park borders a golf course, another a wetlands area, another a sport park and finally a field next to a railroad with occasional noise. Wifi was very good. They pick up your trash. - Tom Willing
Very nice park. Nice sites with paved roads and sites. The sites are close together. The pool area is very nice. There is a small store at the office where you can get firewood and supplies. Close to golfing, shopping and fishing. Nice walking path. WiFi was okay for email. - texasoaks54
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Harbortown RV Resort »This is a nice clean RV Resort with excellent utilities and staff. That being said, we don't intend to ever go back. My wife and I camped there on a Friday and Saturday night with some friends from our neighborhood who absolutely love camping here. Unfortunately, my wife and I didn't necessarily share their affection for this property. This place is awesome if you like tons of kids and major amounts of campfire smoke; if not, you'll probably share in the experience that we tolerated this weekend. We generally stay away from parks that offer seasonal rates because we prefer to be around travelers like us that have raised our children and want to enjoy a more peaceful experience. The seasonal campers were not the problem here; it's the want-to-be seasonals that are the problem. These folks took over everything; I mean everything. We were challenged to even back into our site because the folks decided they owned the road for their Corn-Hole, pitch and catch, pretty much everything! I was just wanting them to get out of the way so I could back in but the didn't they seem to grasp that. I also have to mention the dump station. Terrible! Only small rigs can get into it and the location is at the exit which blocks the road so no one can leave. We ended up following another rig through the grass to get out! Apparently they had been there before. Again, we don't plan to go back but it is a nice park if you like that "party" atmosphere. Make sure you are in a full hookup site. Lots of scheduled activities. Clean pool, camp store, cafe, mini golf, and go carts. Very kids friendly. - Vermagnuson

Rating: 5 5 2 6 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Sites are tight, 50 amp, water, No Sewer, Cable TV and WiFi. Way too expensive for the services provided. I am handicapped and the walk to the showers was too much and just for over night we did not un-hook the toad. Site T-1 has no shade. - Sundancer268
We stayed at Wilderness Campground using the Passport America rate. The owners were very nice people, I wish I could give the campground a better review. On our first day there we walked around the grounds, and found mostly seasonal sites that were not all well kept. The pull through area we were in was in a wide open field with no trees that bordered a road. It rained most of the time we were there, which added to the tired feeling of this campground. Also, season was winding down for them. As I walked around the lake I noticed trash (beer cans/cigarettes) piled in the fire rings of the cabins that were vacant - it was just depressing. We paid $23 a night with the PA rate, all except for the last night, which was full price - it was not worth the full price rate (only water/electric - no sewer), but it was easier for us to stay one more night. There are no laundry facilities and the bathrooms did not look very clean. I would not stay here again. - WHR NXT
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Wilderness Campground »Wow, just wow.......and I don't mean this in a good way. We opted to stay here for an overnight stay.. They gave us a "pull through" which is just a spot in a field and we had to drive through a wet area in the field to get into our spot, almost getting stuck in the mud. Michigan is tough for finding a quick overnight spot when traveling through, so you take what you can. In hindsight, a parking lot looks like a palace! Lot's full time residents and some interesting RV/Trailer set ups, kind of trashy. - scubajoe

Rating: 7 5 5 9 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Was fun for Halloween, looks like it would be lots of fun in the summer. Sites were grass/dirt and mostly level, power and water were good. My only complaint was the pet fee $5 a night per dog (we have 3) was too much! The dogs only left our site once for a walk, and we pick up with our own bags, no nice grass at site to damage, so why that cost? It cost us $75 just for the dogs during our stay. :( Liked the park, but not sure we'd return because of the high pet fee. - Duran
This was our second time at this CG. The location, near Ann Arbor, works well for us. We were here about 10 years ago and some things have changed since then--not all for the good. To their credit they have a very nice looking sandy beach and waterslide area that looks like it would be a big hit with the kids. There's plenty of room to take dogs for a nice walk and they have a fenced in dog park. The sites are dirt and grass and mostly level-ish. There are lots of trees which we like. They don't appear to obstruct any of the sites. The park is right off the highway and easy to access. The traffic noise is not a problem. More like "white noise" during the night. It didn't disturb our sleep. However, the sites are very close together and I wouldn't want to be here in July or August when it's very crowded. Also, even with only a few other campers, the water pressure was low. There was no cap on our sewer connection and according to my husband, the washrooms/showers at the laundry area--including the laundry area--were dirty. - erosenbe
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Monroe Co. / Toledo North KOA »Average access but campsites were tight and departure was difficult. Old campground dressed up with a swimming lake and a water slide. Expensive. They have three pull thru sites and only two 50 amp site. Service at check in was unprofessional. It was rushed and often interrupted at the same time. We stayed one night. The only night in30 years of camping that I had to call security. A lengthy and memorable issue. Will not stay there or recommend it for big rigs.( we are 40') - 12858

Rating: 9 7 8 7 1 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Gated with keycard access, showers and restrooms were very clean. Owners and campers were friendly. We are planning to return. - Player99
The campground is approximately 5 miles from I-75 traveling on acceptable country roads; a bit narrow but fine if done slowly. Roads and sites in the campground are gravel and relatively level. We drive a 45ft MH with a tow and were able to navigate the campground without removing the car. Utilities and sewer placed well and worked fine. The owner checked us in and was very friendly and helpful even getting up early to let us through the gate the next morning, although we could have done that ourselves. The campground is mostly shaded making satellite and OTA reception poor. Verizon hotspot worked adequately for email and basic internet surfing. There are a few sites with less tree cover which would alleviate this issue. We did not use the restrooms or laundry so cannot comment on that. Campground is gated so security felt good. We would use this campground again if we were in the area and needed a spot to stay. - LvR

The sites are well maintained, bathrooms checked regularly during each day, very clean, fantastic activities for kids during the days, the DJ they use is wonderful, the staff friendly and helpful.

They have security on site to keep it family friendly. Can't beat it. - Lynn1980

View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Pirolli Park Campground »I have stayed at probably 100 or more campgrounds in my life and have NEVER been treated with such disrespect in my life! RUDE does not even begin to explain how we were treated. From the minute we arrived the lady who works at the front gate treated us like absolute dirt! We were all 100% paid for yet she treated us as if we were sneaking in? We were told that we could only have one car at the camp site. I asked if I could pay for a second car so I could drive back there. NO. But every campsite around us had two cars on their sites? Just wanted to enjoy the weekend! Every single time we went by the gate she would question us. She literally treated us like dirt for 5 days as if we were criminals? Spent four days trying to avoid the gate as much as possible so we could just relax and enjoy our stay. Fast forward to leaving. My husband and I took the truck over to haul our camper home. We stopped and tried to be friendly. Explained to the gate lady that we were simply picking up the camper to take it home. She said that was fine..... and you are coming straight out correct? I said absolutely! We drove back hooked up the camper and headed out. My daughter wanted one family picture at the Pirolli Large chair to document their weekend! We literally pulled over jumped out took a few pictures and the gate lady screams at my husband! " I THOUGHT YOU WERE LEAVING?????" Then my son-in-law gets a phone call after we left asking us to never return because we "lied"one too many times? Then I attempted to call the owner back to explain my situation and try to find out exactly WHAT we lied about? I asked to speak to the owner she said "this is the owner" told me never to return and then hung up on me! Refusing any type of conversation! Obviously they support that behavior with their employees! - Beyond Irritated Camper

Rating: 2 1 4 8 1 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This park is decaying, dirty and nothing like the web site describes. We got stuck in a space so small we couldn't fit. Potable water came out nasty brown color for 5 minutes before it cleared. Place is old. Super tight. Run down. Full of long term rigs. If you have a big rig, this really isn't the right option. With a month reservation they then told us we'd have to move every few days. We made arrangements to leave. Ok for an overnight passing through if you must. - Ken Camp
I was working night shift, sleeping during days. Trying to sleep, they have bulldozers, backhoes, weedeaters all around me everyday it isn't raining. They put pallets and boards to walk on to keep you out of the water. Too noisy here, the lots are difficult to back in and out because of the railroad ties sticking out of the ground at both sides of all the driveways. No room between campers to open your awning, too close. I'm surprised there have been no liability lawsuits from the pallets and boards. I had planned on staying here till November; not now, looking for another campground. - J Lewis
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Covered Wagon Camp Resort »Definitely an older park that shows its age in several ways. Most notably, the restrooms, showers and laundry could all use some cleaning and repainting. While they were not dirty when we were there, they were just dingy and old, and were definitely not of the quality we'd expect at the price we were paying. Two dryers were out of order in the laundry. Picnic tables were run down, and the electrical boxes also showed their age, but ours did work fine. The "free wifi" was completely inaccessible at our site that was relatively close to the office; I did not see any repeater antennas in the campground. I could access WiFi if I walked closer to the office. Again, not at all what I would expect for $38 per night. Plus, the charge included $3 extra for a/c, which I probably should not have paid because it ended up being cool that night, and $2 extra for sewer. I would feel more positively about the place if those both were included in the $33 base rate. But at least there is a Good Sam discount. Overall, this place would be fine if the rate were no more than $20 per night. As is, I would definitely try to find more quality for my buck somewhere else. On the positive side, the check-in staff was very friendly. - Edistobob

Rating: 10 2 4 6 3 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is a beautiful park surrounded with large trees, big areas for camping, mostly on grass, but very level. Owner does his own upkeep and the place looks great. We commented on a baby swing in the playground area that had one rope broken. Next day there were TWO BRAND NEW SWINGS up. This was very important to us as we had 4 little grandkids coming over to play on several of the days that we stayed here. On the weekends it filled up, but during the week it was quiet. A few folks besides us stayed during the week. We stay in the area every summer for a couple weeks and will certainly be back here again next year. Owner comes around an pumps out your black and grey tanks twice a week for $10 a day. Worked great for us. - Krislch
PROS: Good value. Electric and water pull-through 60 ft grass site for $30/night. Trees. Decent view. Good spacing. Poor wifi at our spot, but good wifi from office.
CONS: Staff not friendly to transient (non-seasonal) campers. Rejected delivery my Amazon package. This demonstrated lack of respect for campers. My package was labeled per the manager's instructions, but was rejected upon delivery. After paying for six nights, one would thing they would try to take good care of their guests needs.
HUGE rig-wrecking potholes in gravel entrance Sherman road, almost damaged the undercarriage of my rig. Ugly algae in pond. Mostly seasonal campers. Utilities on wrong side. - tdragerView more reviews and a full list of amenities for KC Campground »Interior gravel roads in dire need of repair. Potholes and dust everywhere. We experienced some rain, and many of the sites were flooded. 30 amp service and old equipment. There was some arcing in our power pole and it caused our power cord to melt into the receptacle. Thankfully I had good power monitoring equipment in my rig that prevented damage. No sewer either. For the fees charged, this campground is not a good value. The staff is below average in friendliness. Not bad, but certainly not the outgoing friendliness we see at so many other places. The county roads leading up to the park are atrocious. Both asphalt and gravel, and both in terrible, terrible condition. We traveled at a crawl and were weaving across both lanes just to avoid potholes and crazy-rough patches. I realize that is not the fault of the owner, but it certainly has a bearing on my overall satisfaction. - User3367

Rating: 10 10 8 8 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Stayed at Maumee Bay State park for the last night of our trip out to Vermont, New York, and Pennsylvania. Really was just looking for an overnight stay and found Maumee Bay very accommodating. It was easy to locate, very friendly and informative staff, drinking water for overnight located on the way in, beautiful level concrete pad for our trailer, easy hookup to the 50 amp pedestal. Carry out was easy at the Eagle's Nest Sweet Retreat just out side the parks boundary. Very nice trail system around the camping area to exercise the dogs. We will remember this Ohio SP and would consider staying here again and longer. - M Warner
First time staying here and what a great experience. We stayed 11 nights and appreciated the level asphalt pad and huge yard. Sites are nicely spaced and most are separated by dense vegetation. There are nicely maintained marked trails with lots of wildlife (especially deer) to see. There were lots of activities planned for the weekend (but we didn't partake due to conflicting plans) and sadly there was a "avoid all contact with water - algae toxins at unsafe levels" posted at the beach. Obviously not the park's fault. Although not the highlight of any campground, this dump station was outstanding. Not only did they have the usual amenities but there were sewer hoses already installed so you don't have to unload your own. And you could even top off your tires with compressed air. - Jim From Venice
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Maumee Bay State Park »As we came in from the west we drove through an incredible mix of industry and building projects and at first we worried this park would be in the industrial section of town, but that was not the case. The park is very large and beautiful. Along the shores of Lake Erie it has a very large beach area. Park service sign in was very pleasant and easy. Our site, 084, was large, back in and so much area, it was big enough to throw frisbees for the dogs. All sites are back in and as others have mentioned, each site is separated by some trees and bushes. We were close to the restroom/showers which were clean. There were plenty of walking trails to walk the dogs. Although there were no playgrounds, there was the beach and safe roads for biking. We paid $29.00 on line for our site plus an $8.00 reservation fee. With no one behind us we were able to sit and watch the butterflies in the large meadow. No wifi but good Verizon service and OTA TV. I felt the size of the site, clean area, and overall beauty of the park were well worth what we paid. We were here only one night but will try to come back again to explore the area. - Trainspotter
