The path is fully paved, and a nice walk for a quick stop along I75 between Ann Arbor and up north. I'd love to go back there.

This is large as state forest campgrounds go, consisting of four loops with about half a dozen…read moresites each. Most of the sites are fairly open, so shade during the heat of the day can be hard to come by. Generally sites are level. Many sites overlook the river, and since the campground is on the river, it's a good option for canoe campers. Water from the hand pump is a bit rustier in appearance than what you see in most state forest campgrounds, though it tastes fine. One advantage of this campground is its central location. If you'll be visiting different places around the Grayling area (say, fishing the Au Sable as well as the Manistee river), this is a better jumping off point than the campgrounds located further up or downstream on the Manistee. It's only seven miles back to Grayling, so a grocery or ice run doesn't have to take a sizeable chunk out of your morning or afternoon. That said, this convenience comes at a price. If you're looking for a quiet getaway, this is not the place. M72 stays busy much of the day and night, so traffic noise will be a constant. There's a large, busy canoe livery directly across the river, which can get very loud when the canoeists arrive back (often a bit intoxicated) from their floats. Even so, I still make it here once or twice a year. The location plus good fishing nearby make the inconveniences tolerable.

HOWEVER, none of that was enough to offset the conditions of the bath house. Firstly, the shower area (separated from the toilet area by a partial door) has no private space for drying off and changing. There are 3 shower stalls and just one big open area with a bench. The only way to have privacy would be to dry off and get dressed inside the shower stall. No thanks! There are also huge areas of peeling paint with mildew growing beneath. The last straw was the multitude of dead insects clearly visible inside the soap dispenser in the sink area. That is simply unacceptable. Much better accommodations can be found for the price of these sites ($26.50/night). If you have your own bathroom facilities in your camper, this would not be an issue for you, so if you are looking to be close to the trails, this place would be fine.

We ended up getting a deluxe cabin which says it can sleep 6 but the includes a double bed, 2 twin bunk beds in a very tiny room and the couch which is a futon. We only had 2 people so we had plenty of room. There is a toilet and a nice shower in the bathroom. The living room area has a tv, a table with bar chairs for 4, a microwave, refrigerator, kitchen sink and lots of cabinets to put your stuff in. You need to remember to bring your own sheets, towels, pillows and bedding. Also remember paper towel and toilet paper. Even though the Park was filled - it was surprisingly quiet. It's about 5 miles from Higgins Lake State Park which requires a recreation pass, but is very nice and has a paved bike trail and a public beach.
