    A fire along the canal and a perfect fall evening
    Sharon S.

    Newly renovated campground wonderful fire pits. Bathrooms and showers were clean. If you don't like road traffic you may not want to stay close to the road. It was a fall trip, the beach and playground were clean.

    This was our first camping trip with our new camper, our two dogs, and our newborn son! What a great experience we had!! We blindly booked a lot that just so happened to be on the channel so it was neat to sit and watch the boats go out. The bathrooms were cleanly and the one on the south side of the park was recently updated. We walked half way around the lake towards Cadillac (roughly 4 miles round trip) and enjoyed every step! There were so many places to walk and my wife even kicked my butt in put out just down the road. 10 out of 10! We will definitely be coming back

    Fishing dock.

    I haven't tent camped in over 10 years. Stayed on lot #179 for two nights. Electric hookup was a bonus. We were near the boat launch which people got in and out quickly and with much fuss. This site was on the canal between Lake Cadillac and Lake Mitchel. Boat traffic is quite steady, but flows well. Campers can also more their boats on the canal. Has nice paved walkways and many benches through the park. It was a great place for our son to fish even though we are not boat owners there are several place for dock fishing and a nice large dock. Showers and bathrooms were exceptionally clean. We would recommend this campground for anyone passing through the area.

    Nice little roadside state park for a quick swim. I didn't try the camping section but this little area was kept up nicely

    This is probably one of the best playgrounds up north, the only real downside is the location…read more Kalkaska is a humble and honest small town, but beyond grabbing a bite to eat there isn't much else to do in town... this is only relevant if your traveling to the area from down state. Not much touristy things to do if you plan to come to this park.... downtown is cool but there isn't really shopping... back to the park: this park is tucked behind some buildings and easy to miss if you are driving through. The structure is completely wooden and connected completely through bridges, tunnels, and monkey bars. There's a sign with rules and restrictions and beyond guardians and parents the playground is meant for 12 and under in age. I brought my sister in law and nephew after we grabbed lunch at the up north grill in town (only 5 minutes away so highly recommend for lunch) my nephew is almost 2 years old but there was still tons of interactive stuff for him to do which was unexpected based on the size of this huge castle themed park. There's about 5 different slides so age shouldn't restrict enjoying. The structure is very well built and laid out so, as adults we were for the most part able to maneuver it with our little guy. A bouncy tire contraption that reminded us of a bull was a win as well as a swing that allows an adult to swing with your baby which was SOOOO COOL. Better that just pushing because it adds safety and gives you a chance to do something enjoyable with your baby while making eye contact. Wyatt was all giggles. The park was busy when we visited but it never felt crowded because how it's designed. It's both 40 minutes from my sisters house in grayling but left enoug of an impression that she plans to take Wyatt with my brother this weekend again!
