RV Camping near Port Austin, Michigan

Tawas River RV Park

100 RV Sites

Tawas River RV Park in Tawas City, Michigan, offers 100 RV sites along the Tawas River near Lake Huron's Saginaw Bay, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 42 feet. Full-hookup back-in, water-and-electric back-in, and water-and-electric pull-through categories join a boat ramp, beach, library, and game room. One hundred sites run in back-in full hookup, water-and-electric back-in, and water-and-electric pull-through categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 42 feet. Check which category you are booking — not every site carries sewer. A laundry, restrooms, showers, and RV storage handle the practical side. A boat ramp gives direct river access for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing, with a beach on the property and a pond and lake nearby. A library, game room, walking trails, pavilion, and horseshoes fill the grounds, with planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. The setting is what distinguishes it. Tawas City sits in Iosco County on the western shore of Saginaw Bay, and the park occupies the Tawas River's final miles before it reaches the bay — the riparian and estuarine transition that makes this one of Michigan's most productive areas for fishing and birding. Tawas Point State Park's lighthouse and the migratory bird traffic through the point are both close. Summer is decisively the season in northeast lower Michigan, with fall color and the fishing runs extending demand. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

67 Cabins

Jellystone Park North Port Huron in Carsonville, MI, offers RV sites with full hookups alongside 67 cabins.

Ogemaw County Fair

69 RV Sites

Ogemaw County Fairgrounds in West Branch, Michigan, offers 69 RV sites with water and electric on 30 and 50-amp service, sized for rigs to 60 feet, in northern lower Michigan. This is well-priced fairgrounds camping with genuine community character, serving both fair week and a season that runs well beyond it. Sixty-nine back-in sites carry water and electric on 30 or 50-amp, sized to 60 feet — note there are no sewer hookups at the sites, though a dump station is on site. Group sites and rustic spots supplement the hookup sites, giving tent campers basic fire-and-nature infrastructure without the utility overhead. Restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. On-site facilities are practical rather than elaborate: a playground for families and the open fairgrounds themselves, which give guests considerably more room than a conventional campground layout. The pricing reflects the format, and for travelers who want space and simplicity over programming, that trade works well. West Branch sits in Ogemaw County in northern lower Michigan, with the Rifle River's fishing and natural recreation close by. The county fair itself, including the Antique Village, is the anchor event of the season and draws RV-equipped families from across the region. Availability tracks the fair calendar closely. Fair week fills the grounds and books out well in advance, while the rest of the season generally offers easy availability at a lower rate. Check the fair schedule before planning a stay — it is the single biggest factor in what you will find here.

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.

Camp Deer Trails

29 RV Sites, 8 Cabins, 7 Tent Sites

Camp Deer Trails in Harrison, Michigan, offers 29 RV sites, eight cabins, and seven tent sites across 140 wooded acres on Long Lake, with 30 and 50-amp electric service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 40 feet. Rustic waterfront and rustic back-in categories join a 30/50-amp tier, with three beaches, boat docks, a hot tub, and nature trails. Twenty-nine back-in sites span 30/50-amp, rustic back-in, and rustic waterfront back-in categories, carrying electric service, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Plan around the hookups — these are electric sites rather than full hookup, so arrive with full water and empty tanks and confirm dump arrangements when you book. The rustic waterfront category is the one to request. Eight cabins and seven tent sites round out the lodging. Restrooms, showers, and a general store handle the practical side. Three distinct beach areas and boat docks open the lake for boating, paddle boats, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing, with a hot tub and sauna, nature trails, and picnicking filling the rest. The property operates as a wedding venue, and the surrounding forest gives the grounds their character. Pets are welcome. One hundred forty acres for 29 RV sites is a remarkable ratio — this is genuine woodland with a campground in it rather than the reverse, and the space is what guests remember. Clare County sits in the quiet inland lake country of Michigan's Lower Peninsula, with Harrison's small-town center close and the Au Sable and Manistee corridors within reach. Summer is the short, intense Michigan season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Walnut Hills Family Campground

81 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 18 Tent Sites

Walnut Hills Family Campground in Durand, Michigan, offers 81 RV sites, two cabins, and 18 tent sites across 45 acres on the Shiawassee River, with 30 and 50-amp service. Beachfront and riverfront water-and-electric categories join a 50-amp full-hookup tier, alongside a water park, swimming lake, beach, and inflatable water toys. Eighty-one sites span full hookup 50-amp, water-and-electric 30-amp, water-and-electric 50-amp, water-and-electric beachfront 30-amp, and water-and-electric riverfront categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, with fire pits and picnic tables. Read the category carefully — most tiers carry water and electric but not sewer, and the dump station covers the rest. The beachfront and riverfront categories are the ones to request. 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 scenic river frontage in central Michigan is what brings families back year after year. Summer is the season. Reserve well ahead.

Driftwood Beach Resort

20 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 10 Tent Sites, 2 Cottages, 2 Lodges

Driftwood Beach Resort in Clifford, ON, offers 20 RV sites, 7 cabin, cottage, and lodge rentals, and 10 tent sites, with room for rigs up to 38 feet. Sites come in two types: North Country serviced RV sites with water and electric, and Lighthouse Cove unserviced sites. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station, and confirm the amp rating on your site when you book, since service here is lighter than a modern coach typically expects. Each site has a fire pit and picnic table. The grounds are gated, with laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, and propane exchange. The resort cottages are park models built to CSA standards rather than traditional cabins. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. A beach, boat ramp, water park, recreation center, library, ball field, sport courts, horseshoes, walking trails, and a playground fill the property, with swimming, fishing, hiking, biking, and birding on the lake. Clifford sits on the spring-fed water of Lakelet Lake in Wellington County, in genuine Ontario cottage country within driving distance of Kitchener-Waterloo and Guelph. Rates for sites, cottages, and tent spots are on the booking page. The Ontario summer season books early.

Eighty sites run in back-in full hookup and pull-through full hookup categories across the Northern Bluffs and Yurt Village neighborhoods, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, with fire pits and picnic tables. Organizing sites into named neighborhoods rather than numbered tiers is unusual and makes it easier to picture where you will be. Twenty-five cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, firewood, and RV storage handle the practical side. A water park and outdoor pool anchor the summer, with a hot tub and sauna alongside.

Sunrise Lake Family Campground

9 RV Sites, 1 Tent Site

Sunrise Lake Family Campground in Le Roy, MI, offers 9 RV sites and 1 tent site, with 30-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come in two categories, 30-amp standard and 30-amp premium lake, each carrying water and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. 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. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Premium lake sites book first.

Silent Valley Cottage & RV Resort

9 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 18 Tent Sites

Silent Valley Cottage and RV Resort in West Grey, Ontario, offers 9 full-hookup RV sites, two cabins, and 18 tent sites across 400 forested acres, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet behind a gated entrance. Voyageur full service and partial service categories join an outdoor pool, beach, disc golf course, and jumping pillow. Nine back-in sites run in Voyageur full service and Voyageur partial service categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the partial service category does not carry the full hookup set. One thing to check: service is 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter. Two cabins and 18 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The resort operates from Victoria Day through Thanksgiving. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the summer, with a lake for swimming and fishing. A disc golf course, jumping pillow, recreation center, playground, volleyball, horseshoes, and picnicking fill the rest, with planned activities through the season and a golf course nearby. Pets are welcome. Four hundred acres for nine RV sites is a remarkable ratio — this is genuine mature hardwood and conifer forest with a small resort inside it, and the quiet is what the name promises and what guests come back for. Natural ponds and a large spring-fed lake sit on the property. Grey County's countryside puts the Bruce Peninsula, Owen Sound, and Blue Mountain within reach. The season is short. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Blue Lakes Adventure Camp

52 RV Sites

Blue Lakes Adventure Camp in Elmira, Michigan, offers 52 full-hookup pull-through RV sites on asphalt drives, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet. A single pull-through category means no backing at any site, with an outdoor pool, sports courts, playground, and direct ORV trail access in Antrim County. Fifty-two sites are pull-through throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with a 110-volt option, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. A single-category, all-pull-through layout on asphalt is genuinely practical — every guest gets the same spec, no backing after a long drive, and the paved drives hold up through northern Michigan winters. A general store, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. For emergencies call 911; for anything of concern on the property, the 24-hour line is (321) 312-9371. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with sports courts, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, a playground, and swimming filling the rest. A lake, river, and golf course are nearby. Pets are welcome. The address is 4319 Cinder Hill Road. Direct ORV trail access is the differentiator — riders can leave from the campground rather than trailering out, which very few properties in the region allow. Antrim County is northern Michigan lake country, where the chain from Torch Lake north to Elk and Clam Lakes forms one of the most celebrated freshwater landscapes in the Great Lakes. Summer and ORV season drive demand. Reserve well ahead for July and August.
