Myers Lake Campground em os Estados Unidos

Spent a single evening at location #40 while traveling upwards on US23. The "areas" are merely a mix of mud and a bit of grass with an electric stand. Additionally, there was a stationary fire pit and a picnic bench. There was no seclusion between spaces, and numerous children and dogs were freely roaming. I wouldn't choose to halt here in the future, particularly if there has been recent rainfall.

We've found Michigan state park campgrounds to be generally pretty disappointing, but this one worked well for us. As usual there were no defined pads, no gravel, just bare dirt, and with no site separation campers tended to be on top of each other. I would never camp here without securing a site on the outer part of the loop; sites inside the loop have zero privacy and campers parked their rigs every which way, meaning there was no way to know how far away a neighbor might be. There was also no enforcement of rules (like the limit on 2 vehicles per site) leading to a very crowded experience on weekends. However, it was much quieter and more pleasant during the week. What we liked: the bathhouse was modern and clean, with individual shower rooms, and the recreation area offers a variety of trails (both hiking and mountain biking) as well as water activities. The boat ramp area is set up well for small boats and personal watercraft like kayaks. The recreation area is close to Brighton, which offers plenty of restaurants and retail (Costco, Meijer, etc) and an easy drive to Ann Arbor. We were happy having this campground as a base to explore both Ann Arbor and the Henry Ford museums. We thought it a little weird that the most direct route to both Brighton and to US 23 were down a dirt road. When towing our trailer we used the north-south route to I96 to access the highways in lieu of towing on the unpaved roads. Service on ATT was usable for streaming (30 Mbps down).

We love camping at the Bishop Lake Campground during the off season. There are sandhill cranes that walk around eerily crowing, the campers are pretty spread out, and the bathroom is clean (and open year-round!). The lake isn't for swimming - fishing and kayaking only - but is beautiful to look at. The sites only offer electric with a shared central water pump. There is a dump site on the way out of the camp, however. The campground requires a recreation pass. In the off season, the office is run very sporadically, so it's likely you'll be checking in by envelope in the dark (bring a pen) and the small yellow phone box in front of the office. I've heard that the office is manned all the time during the season. All the sites in the lower loop appear to be nice with grassy sites, a large metal fire ring, and a picnic table. There are fewer trees/more open sun in the lower loop, with more trees around the outside loop. There are no pull-through sites, but you can see the attached map to find which might be easiest for you to get into/out of. In the off season, you can often drive through adjacent spots to get to your own. As a note, the Brighton Recreation Area is large and somewhat confusing. Make sure to use the address for Brighton Bishop Lake (Modern) Campground, and NOT Brighton Rec, or you're likely to end up at the wrong location. There are paved roads all the way to the campground, but there are many surrounding ROUGH dirt roads that can be less fun for rigs and cars alike.

We choose the electric only site, was big on grass. Well marked , easy to access park. At the entrance has 2 dump stations with safe and unsafe water. Very close to Brighton, which is a cute town. There is a train track near by, but is not a problem at all. You'll need a DNR pass, which can be bought right there.

After picking up our RV rental in Ypsilanti (drove up from Ohio), we stopped here for a night to get settled in before heading up to Sleeping Bear dunes. We were able to book site 85 ahead of time. What a campsite! It’s one of the few pull-throughs in the park. Once set up, our door and windows faced the lake and woods around us. We had quite a bit of privacy for a fairly open campsite given how it’s situated. We also had a wide open view as if we had the whole park to ourselves. Hardware and groceries stores were close, making this a great launching point for our trip. We also had three bars of 5G (T-Mobile). We’ll definitely return on future RV future trips through Michigan.
