    I've canoed or tubed on a lot of the popular Michigan rivers for these activities and have never…read moreseen an operation like this. Entering the check-in area is like walking into the lobby of a luxury resort. There are several booths with clerks ready to register you, and of course a wide selection of merchandise you might want to check out if you forgot some essential for your trip, like sun block or a waterproof phone case. Once registered, we were assigned a bus boarding area and got ready to ride to the put-in site. The trip was short and we were soon turned loose on the river. We took the 4-6 hour trip and finished in just about 5, with only a short lunch stop. The river was very pleasant, slow with occasional riffle areas where we picked up some speed, and not to many rocks or logjams to navigate around. Quiet and solitude? Well, no. If you're making this trip on a hot summer Saturday, expect to be in the company of several other parties during the length of your trip. One offered us a jello shot, which we passed on, though thirty years ago that would have been tempting. Not much chance of missing your take out, which is back at the campground, which takes up a large stretch of the riverback before you hit the actual landing. Once there, you just hand your tube/boat to an attendant and walk back to your car. I probably wouldn't choose to camp here--the campground is large and not shaded in many parts. Lot of potential for it to get loud. But for canoeing or tubing, a top-notch rental operation.

    Have an annual camping weekend for 3 years and always enjoy this campground. They have water and…read moreelectrical at the campsite for a reasonable price and there is plumbed restrooms and showers that are walking distance. They maintain the facilities and always clean. It's really nice to have a campsite along the river and really nice they shuttle you to the starting point and provide usually good quality tubes and also offer tubes for your cooler if you pay per cooler tube.

    This is our second time that we stayed here! We loved it there! So much so that we looked into a…read moreseasonal spot for next year, we were put on a waitlist for it. The campground is very clean, quiet, has free Wi-Fi, heated outdoor pool, pavilion for large get togethers, a kid's playground, sand volleyball court, shuffleboard, and horseshoes. They have a kid train that the kids and parents can ride. They also offer cabins to stay in. The main office offers ice cream, dipping dots, small camp store, books you can borrow, board games you can check out or even play inside the camp office. They also had puzzles. There is a great walking area for dogs (dog run). Clean restrooms/showers but only one set of them. They also deliver firewood to your campsite. We really enjoyed being there. They don't allow fireworks, which is great to us. They also have room to park your boat. The seasonal people were pretty friendly. The campsites are pull through and full hook ups. They also provide a dump station as well. This campground is just minutes away from the downtown Houghton Lake area. The campground is near a highway but it didn't bother us at all. We will be back, thank you for having us! Wish I took more pictures! Enjoy the pictures!
