Alice Springs RV Park & Resort

140 RV Sites, 10 Cabins

Alice Springs RV Park & Resort in Ionia, Michigan, offers 140 RV sites and 10 cabins on a private five-acre lake, with 30 and 50-amp full hookups, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Deluxe concrete and deluxe concrete waterfront categories sit alongside standard full-hookup sites, with an outdoor pool, hot tub, and pickleball courts. One hundred forty sites run in 30-amp full-hookup, 30/50-amp full-hookup, 30/50-amp deluxe concrete, and 30/50-amp deluxe concrete waterfront configurations — every site is full hookup with sewer, water, and electric, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Accessible sites are available. Ten cabins serve guests without a rig. Note that tents are not permitted on the sites. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout. Visitors are welcome but capped in number — call the office to confirm. The private five-acre lake is the anchor, supporting kayaking, canoeing, boating, fishing, and swimming without leaving the property. An outdoor pool and hot tub, pickleball courts, sports courts, basketball, shuffleboard, horseshoes, and corn hole fill the grounds, with golf cart rentals, a playground, pavilion, and dog park besides. The dark rural sky makes for good stargazing. Pets are welcome. Ionia sits in west-central Michigan, in orchard and farm country with day-trip range to Grand Rapids, the Lake Michigan shoreline, and the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum — all within about 40 miles. Summer lake season drives demand. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Sun Retreats Gun Lake

13 RV Sites

Sun Retreats Gun Lake in Hopkins, Michigan, offers 13 full-hookup RV sites in Allegan County's lake country, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 60 feet behind a gated entrance. A motorhome-only full-hookup pull-in category joins a pull-through tier, with a splash pad, hot tub, spa, beach, and jumping pillow. Thirteen sites run in full hookup pull-in for motorhomes only and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The motorhome-only pull-in is a thoughtful distinction — coaches that would rather not back or unhitch get a purpose-built option. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a snack bar handle the practical side. The property was formerly Hidden Ridge RV Resort. A splash pad and outdoor pool anchor the summer, with a hot tub, sauna, and spa alongside. A lake, beach, fishing pier, and boat rentals open the water for boating, paddle boats, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing. A jumping pillow, fitness center, recreation center, clubhouse, game room, arcade, billiards, shuffleboard, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, pavilion, community fire pit, and dog park fill the rest, with live music and planned activities. That amenity list at 13 sites is remarkable. Gun Lake covers 2,680 acres in western Michigan's hardwood and lake country, with Yankee Springs Recreation Area close and Grand Rapids about 40 minutes north. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.

An outdoor pool, boat ramp, kayak rentals, game room, sports courts, and golf cart rentals serve a 100-site Ottawa County property with deep water access to the river corridor. Sites carry water, sewer, and electric in back-in and pull-through configurations, with fire pits and picnic tables. Contact the campground to confirm amp service, length limits, and current category availability for your rig — the published site records are incomplete, and a call gets you a straight answer. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, RV storage, boat storage, and a snack bar handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a boat ramp and kayak rentals opening the river for boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing.

A golf course is nearby. Pets are welcome. The address is 9720 Oriole Drive. Deep water access is the distinguishing feature — the Grand is Michigan's longest river, and from here it runs west to Lake Michigan at Grand Haven, which means a boat launched at the campground can reach the big lake. The salmon and steelhead runs draw anglers, and Grand Rapids sits a short drive east with Grand Haven's beaches and boardwalk to the west. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Walnut Hills Family Campground

81 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 18 Tent Sites

Two cabins and 18 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, dump station, showers, firewood, and bike rentals handle the practical side. Two billing details: power is billed monthly based on usage, and the seasonal site season runs May 1 through October 20. A water park and swimming lake anchor the summer, with a beach, boat ramp, and kayak rentals opening the river for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. An arcade, game room, ball field, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, gaga ball, horseshoes, inflatable water toys, golf cart rentals, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the rest, with live music and planned activities.

The Oaks Campground

The Oaks Campground in Munith, Michigan, offers full-hookup RV sites beneath mature oak shade, with water, sewer, and electric in back-in configurations. A clear swimming lake with a sandy beach, water park, ball field, bike rentals, and horseback riding fill a property that delivers the classic southern Michigan lake experience. Sites carry water, sewer, and electric in back-in configurations, with fire pits and picnic tables. Contact the campground to confirm amp service, length limits, and current availability — the published site records are incomplete. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side.

Planned activities run through the season, and a state park is nearby. Horseback riding and bike rentals at a lake campground is an unusual pairing and gives families more to do than the water alone. The mature oak shade and open natural character are exactly what disappears once you enter the urban footprint of Detroit, Ann Arbor, or Jackson — and all three are close enough for a day trip. Waterloo Recreation Area, Michigan's largest state park in the Lower Peninsula, is minutes away. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.

Northern Sites Campground

1 RV Site

Northern Sites Campground in Beaverton, Michigan, offers 1 primitive RV site on the Cedar River, with rigs accepted to 30 feet. A sandy beach, general store, dump station, showers, and pavilion serve a river camping property in Gladwin County's inland lake country. The site is primitive, sized to 30 feet, with a fire pit and picnic table. Plan accordingly — no hookups at the site, so arrive fully self-contained with water and power, and use the dump station and bathhouse. The 30-foot cap rules out most modern coaches; this suits vans, small trailers, and truck campers. Contact the campground about additional site availability and any serviced options. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a pavilion handle the practical side. The river and a sandy beach carry the recreation, with swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, water sports, and biking. Pets are welcome. A primitive site on a river with a real bathhouse and store is a specific and increasingly rare combination — you get the quiet of unserviced camping without giving up hot water or coffee. Gladwin County sits in the heart of Michigan's Lower Peninsula, a region of wooded uplands, small lakes, and an extensive snowmobile and ORV trail network that has served outdoor travelers for generations. The Cedar and Tittabawassee Rivers, Wixom Lake, and the Gladwin Field Trial Area are all close, with Houghton and Higgins Lakes an easy drive north. Summer is the season in central Michigan, with fall color and snowmobile season drawing distinct off-peak waves. Reserve ahead for July and August, and arrive self-contained.

Sunrise Lake Family Campground

9 RV Sites, 1 Tent Site

There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. Note the electrical: this is a 30-amp campground throughout, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management. The grounds are gated, with laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a snack bar, a pavilion, and cabins. Monthly guests are required to file an emergency contact form, which the campground keeps private and uses only if a situation arises. Pets are welcome. A boat ramp, beach, pond, and lake access drive the recreation — fishing, swimming, boating, paddle boats, and picnicking. The property also hosts weddings. Le Roy sits in Osceola County in the northern Lower Peninsula, on all-sports Sunrise Lake, with 12,000 acres of state land across the road and the Evart Motorcycle Loop's forest roads nearby.
