Northern Michigan Camping Guide
Our Northern Michigan Camping Guide features privately owned campgrounds, state park campgrounds, and federal park campgrounds. Whether you have a motor home, trailer, or tent, there are some wonderful campgrounds in Northern Michigan!
During the summer, roadways are packed with all types of campers and RVs all heading to the thousands of campgrounds found in the beautiful forests and open land of Northern Michigan. It’s become a very popular way of traveling, with all the comforts of home right at your fingertips. Whether you own a tent, pop up camper or large RV, you’ll find a Northern Michigan campground nearby that has everything you need to make your vacation stress-free and fun.
Rustic or Tent Camping
Some love the idea of just pitching a tent and enjoying the rustic side of camping. There are many Northern Michigan campgrounds that focus on providing a quieter and more secluded setting, with a few campsites requiring a hike just to get in!
RV Parks for Motor Homes & Big Rigs
Many campers enjoy the camping experience, but prefer to have all the comforts of home and then some! An RV or motor home is truly a home away from home, and most big rigs include luxury amenities that rival any four-star hotel. For the big rigs and motor homes, RV parks provide large concrete parking pads and pull-thru parking.
Camper Trailers
Offering the convenience of setting up your campsite, but still being able to drive your car or truck to the grocery store or to go sightseeing, camper trailers are a favorite for many who love to getaway.
Pop-Up Campers
Light-weight and easy for any vehicle to pull, pop-ups are some of the most affordable campers available.
Camping Cabins & Cottages
There’s a recent trend of campgrounds adding to their list of camping options by offering on-site cabins, cottages, and park model homes for rent. Some of these buildings are more rustic, so you will need to use the campground showers and restrooms. Other cottages or model homes have all the amenities needed right within the building, including full kitchens and bathrooms.
TeePee & Tent Rentals
Be sure to add sleeping in a TeePee to your bucket list- what a unique experience! Also, tent rentals come in handy if you want to eliminate some of the squeeze that comes from having your camper loaded to its maximum capacity.
Northern Michigan Campground & RV Park Amenities
Campgrounds in Northern Michigan welcome you with all the conveniences, such as water, electric, and sewer hook-ups, showers, laundry rooms, playgrounds, fish freezers, and convenience stores. Many even have swimming pools, so you have the opportunity to swim in clean, fresh water lakes or a pool right on site. If you can’t leave technology behind, you’re in luck with free Wi-Fi at area campgrounds.
Camping is relaxing and affordable, truly one of the best ways to vacation and spend time with family and friends. The natural beauty of Northern Michigan, with its numerous lakes and richly forested lands, makes camping that much better. Whether you camp for a night or a week, you’ll make memories that will last for years.
TRAVEL TIP — Be sure to reserve your campsite early, especially if you plan to travel in the peak summer season, or you may find limited availability for the campsite you prefer, in the campground you plan to visit.
