    Beer and Wifi - sweet nectar of the Gods!
    Mike N.

    I give the Trailhead 5 stars because Pat and Missy, the owners, are awesome. We rolled in on our fleet of 5 side-by-sides, running out of daylight, and they couldn't have been nicer. The cook had already gone home, but when Missy saw us ride up, tired, dirty and hungry, she replied with an enthusiastic "Hell Yes" when we asked her if the kitchen was still open. She fired it up herself and cooked really good cheeseburgers for all of 10 of us. Pat, a Drummond Island resident his entire life, was also super cool. He spent a lot of time with us, showing us where we should go (such as a 110 year old ship wreck, that if your rig can make it to the site, was a wonderful experience). He fixed our flat tires and wouldn't take any money. We ended up staying over at their camp site which had showers. To us, that was a decadent treat. Drummond Island is filled with beautiful sites, challenging trails, and as Missy and Pat had personified, some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. If you see this review and decide to stop in at the Trailhead, please tell them that the Modern Explorers sent you! We will be back!

    It is not worth arguing, it was not a good experience and would not recommend this place, especially if there are women in your group.

    We stayed at an H & H Cabin. We mostly used it to sleep, but often got back to our cabin around 6…read moreor 7pm. The "rustic log cabin" they convey is just a pretty dirty place. We didn't expect much, but the views were nice. The furniture is dusty and we avoided sitting in it. The "full" size beds were comfortable enough and didn't smell, but were very small. My wife and I had to sleep in separate beds. There were also no power outlets anywhere but in the kitchen/dining area so I had trouble with my CPAP machine and needed to do some maneuvering to make it work. Not a deal breaker but it made it difficult. We didn't bother using the kitchen as we weren't sure anything would be clean enough from previous renters. We had brought our own propane camp stove and cooked on that. This also helped us with cleanup though as no dishes needed to be cleaned. The public shower (only one), at least for the men, was very rudimentary and the hot and cold water knobs are reversed. If you camp here, bring shower shoes. The men's side does not lock and when you open the main door, the breeze opens the men's side door which could be awkward with small children or women. My wife mentioned that the women's side had a lock. This place boasts Free WiFi, but you cannot get WiFi in or around the cabins. We had to drive and sit outside the main office in our vehicle to get any access at the beginning and end of each day and the speed was very slow. But we understood that as it's a remote island. The Cafe, which we hoped to use a great deal, was closed the entire time we visited, but we assume this is due to staffing shortages so we didn't fault Yacht Haven for this. It's unfortunate that it's happening everywhere. There are plenty of spots on the island to get a nice cup of coffee and some quick breakfast. The staff were kind as well. The cleaning lady was pleasant and the office staff answered all of my island based questions. All of the negative things can be fixed with some small attention, so I'm still giving this place a solid 3 stars, since we just used it to lay our heads after several long days of off-roading. A bit better cleaning, some quick plumbing work, and electrical updates, a men's shower room lock and some WiFi boosters would make it 4 stars if not more.

    Excellent staff, service, and prices for pontoon pontoon rentals. Best way to enjoy Drummond…read moreincludes a day on the water. We will definitely be getting a boat here on our next trip.

    This campground is located outside of town, and is privately owned and sits on the Cheboygan River…read morewith a renovated dock and boat access, lots of wildlife and hiking and walking trails. Husband and wife caregivers, they live in a beautiful 5th wheel and we had the pleasure of getting to camp next to them. Very sweet and friendly couple who soon will be headed down to Florida for the winter. Park is so well maintained by them, and her hub is always on his tractor cutting the lawn or at work doing something. Bathroom's and showers spotless. Nice sites and each has a nice picnic table and fire pit, firewood sold at the office. We had a pull through site, very accommodating, good water pressure. Tent camping, swing set for the young ones. There is a restaurant across the highway which was very good. Quiet place with lots of mature trees for shade. Very close to town, so convenient. About a 25 min drive to Mackinaw City and the bridge, make a day of taking a boat ride to Mackinaw Island. We enjoyed our stay at this great campground and recommend coming here. We will return!!

We've been in here a few times, and they can handle longer trailers (with reservation) and offer full hook-up sites that are well maintained. The owner lives on site and is very helpful and knowledgeable of the area and local businesses, and it's just a short distance from town. We always look forward to our trips there, and are planning our next chance to go back.
