Proud Lake Recreation Area 2700 Glengary Road, Commerce Charter Township, MI 48390

"Absolutely gorgeous, and lots of dogs on the trail today. Colors are at their peak, and there's no better place to see them than Proud lake. Our dogs get a nice walk that tires them out. Breathtaking views!"

"Great park with tons of trails, beautiful scenery and informative signs along the trails. Probably a given knowing Michigan, but I forgot both times I visited... bring bug spray!"

"Beautiful calm place to kayak or canoe in Michigan. A must do if you're in the area. Our kayak rental was for 2 hours but they have all day long kayak trips depending on how much time you have available. You can bring your own kayak/canoe or rent from them. I think it was about $30 per person for the two hours"

"I had a great time. Kayaking was so much fun! The lakes are amazing. The campsite we had was huge. The shower water was ice cold ao that was a bummer. And the poison ivy was so bad. If you walk down the staircase to the swim area, beware. That posion ivy is sticking out through the steps and it will touch your ankles. The trails we had behind our site were also being used by people and that sucked cause there were kids literally riding their bikes Through Our campsite. I mean, we paid for that site up against the woods to have more privacy and not have people walk through our site. But, we still felt like there was No camping etiquette when it came to respecting boundaries. Personally I'd never walk through someone's site. That's just selfish. But I do recommend camping here. Hoping we'll eventually find our fave spot."

"We camped here for memorial weekend and it was a very nice campground. a lot of the sites are unlevel but we were able to level our trailer using the tongue jack. The lake has swimming and canoe and kayak rentals. The mountain bike and hiking trails are awesome. There is a very well manicured loop about a mile away with a trailhead parking lot that you can ride to via trails from the campground. The lake has good fishing. Basketball and Gaga ball courts were a hit with the kids. Modern bathhouse was very nice."
