Petoskey State Park

"We camped here two years ago and loved it!! Reserved a spot for this summer and can’t wait to go back. The beach is very relaxing and only a few minute walk from our RV. Bike trails are extensive and the people are so kind"

"We enjoy this park in the off-season when it slows down. Becomes a nice place to relax away from the traffic, hustle and bustle of all the towns. Make sure you have a state park pass for entry and of course to support your parks."

"We stayed in site 130 on a weekend in the beginning of October. The site is fairly level. We only had to use one leveling block under each front tire of our suv. If you are tent or car camping, this a quick walk to the bathroom/showers, but not so close that you have to deal with the traffic, which is nice as this is the only restroom facility for approx. 100 sites and people were constantly coming and going while we were there. There is a parking area for a few cars in front of the bathhouse, which is great if you have a site further away. The bathrooms were clean. We did not use the showers. Not a lot of privacy from your neighbors at site 130. It's not a spacious site. There are no designated tent pads at any of the sites that we saw. It was quite cold so we car camped, but if we'd wanted to put up our tent, there was a small area to the left (where you see the picnic table in the photos) that looked like it might have worked if we'd moved the picnic table closer to/along the other side of the fire pit. The tent/gazebo you see in photos belonged to site 132. The path to the lakefront is very close (just two sites away). Overall we enjoyed our stay. We would definitely come back, but would try to get site 133 (or similar) next time, with more privacy, more space, and also near a lakefront path. I included photos of site 133 (empty) as well."

"Awesome place to stay. #134 so close to water and beach. Bathrooms are a little dated, but still, they were clean. Hated we couldn't take our dog to the beach. This was disappointing, but everything was so clean. Clear water. Beautiful rocks. Beautiful sunsets. We will still be back. There are so many places here that are good spots. If you have a bigger camper, it will be tight getting it in . It's so beautiful that we loved it here. A pleasant surprise"

"This is a gem of a State Park. Great beach with beach concessions and lots of parking. Some 180 campsites with power, nearby water, and modern restrooms and showers. Ready access to the local bicycle trail network and nice hiking trails inside the park. Campsites nearly all great and roomy enough for most trailers and rvs."
