One of the nicest KOA properties we've seen. We were in the premium back-in spots, which were spacious, well landscaped with a feeling of privacy: backing up to the woods with a fire pit area set in the trees. Very nice pool, fantastic looking park everywhere you look. It is obvious that these people have really put in a lot of effort to make this place look great, and feel comfortable. A couple of warnings though. The sewer hook-ups were put in by somebody who felt he was an artist with concrete. There is a raised lip around the threaded pipe, so a standard threaded elbow fitting will not fit! Because of this we had to improvise with a rubber donut and a $10 extender, and ended up with a situation where the sewage is flowing uphill and the hose needs to be emptied by hand: gross! They need to tear these out and start over. Also, they have free internet which is pretty good until you start downloading files: then they throttle the speed back automatically. So if you are somebody like me who needs to work on the internet it is basically worthless. Other than those 2 issues I give this park high marks. And since the Petoskey area is the nicest in Michigan, in my opinion, this park is really worth trying.

We tried this park last year and liked it so much we returned for a month this summer. Big and crowded on weekends, but very well run so that the crowds are never a problem. Everything is always clean and works. Large variety of spots from pull-throughs in the sun to nice shaded back ins under a canopy of trees. Lots of things for the kids to do, and a waterpark next door. Internet access is much improved this year and works better than in most campgrounds. The excellent Wadhams to Avoca rail trail is right out the back door for bikers. There's a grocery store, great Chinese restaurant, gas station and several other businesses within a mile. In short, it's just an ideal place to spend some time in the summer if you have kids. My only complaint is the unheated and FREEZING COLD pool.

Very much enjoyed this park. Nice beach, great pool, beautiful area. But the actual camping spots are not the greatest; pretty small, cinder-gravel, and baking in the sun. But considering it's location, I guess that might be expected. There are a handful of ocean front spots that looked great.

I really enjoyed the stay here. Very clean park with friendly service, nice pool, nice beach (for the Keys) and good amenities. Only complaint would be with the internet service - there was no way to register online, and the office was out of the cards needed for prepaid access. Othewise, great.
