Eden Springs Park Campground

This campground could use some renovating. The price of $47 a night plus $5 pet fee seemed high for the location and condition of the park. We did have full hookups but the gravel site was overgrown and amenities were lacking. For a pet fee I hoped for a fenced dog area at least. Some stationary folks and local workers we met stay here for extended periods of time. Benton Harbor is not the nicest part of Michigan, but nearby St Joseph waterfront was somewhat better. The staff was friendly and check in was easy. Shaded and grassy sites. I would choose a different park next time.

This part of Michigan may be a bit tired but there is still lots to do and see, and this campground is a good place to set up your base. Steve is the camp manager who saw us in and out with great warmth. We did not stay for very long but we did get to use the showers. They are tired as well but they are better than squeezing into the one I have in my trailer. Lots of hot water and private. I am sorry for not taking a picture or two.
The sites are grass and gravel. There is a tremendous amount of shade from trees.

Tucked away in a pocket of Benton Harbor is Eden Springs. Older campground. New owners making improvements on property. Interesting history. Very pleasant staff. Received Amazon package with no problems.Near touristy St. Joseph. Stayed two weeks. Weekly rate was $240. Some road noise, but not bothersome. I mean, you’re in the middle of town. Yes would definitely stay again.

Great campground in the middle of a small town. I like that it is close to beaches, South Haven, and many more places. Cindy (the camp manager) it's awesome, she drives around waves, and talks to campers. A wave can go a long way in these times! The only downfall is the location, the neighborhood looks like the bad side of town, but while you are inside the campground you don't feel it. On the weekends they have an old school baseball game, it is pretty cool to go watch a couple of innings. Great place altogether!

My first site located on Campendium. Owner called several hours prior to arrival with instructions on registration on a Saturday evening. Picked up envelope, signed forms, put them in mail drop and parked our unit is the assigned spot within 20 yards of office. Easy to do. Our spot had gravel pad (entire campground looked flat and level), small picnic table and no fire ring. Some noise from adjoining M139 road. Rained most of night leaving some shallow puddles outside our RV that weren't a big deal. The campground was very quiet on Sunday maybe because of rain earlier in day.

Eden Springs Campground & RV Park in Benton Harbor, Michigan, run by camp manager Cindy, may well be one of our favorite small town parks! We are spending the month of August 2018 here and have found the venue quiet, well maintained, friendly and inexpensive ($375 for a month). I do not expect the prices to stay this low now that it has been “discovered”. They are working on adding an updated restroom, dog park and other facilities. The sites are large, level and spaced far apart from each other. We pulled in with a 42’ rig, pulling a 28’ hybrid trailer (total 70’) and easily pulled into our site without having to unhook. We had enough space to park a jeep in front of and and in back of the attached rig. The sites are designed so that no camper or RV faces a sewer connection. All of the hook ups are centrally located between two sites, with each rig having their driver side towards the hookups and their awning/entry sides facing the opposing side. Each site has a gravel space between them that could be traveled through, though campers all set up picnic tables, chairs and campfires there so practically there is no egress, thus privacy. This camp has the best WiFi of any camp we have ever stayed at. Some spots offer OTA TV and satellite reception. Ours did not as we chose to have a full tree canopy. Most of the sites offer Full Hookups with 30/50 amp service. The camp manager, Cindy, provides fire rings and picnic tables as requested, so, if you need either, just let her know when you call. The tables were clean and in good shape. The fire rings can be placed anywhere you want. As an aside, when a camper leaves, Cindy and her crew comes and removes the rings, cleaning up the residue so there is no mess left! The campground grass is cut routinely and “weed-whacked” as needed. Cindy has been one of the nicest hosts we have met on our travels. She is always pleasant, available as needed for emergencies and even delivered our mail one afternoon. She is a font of knowledge about the area and willing to share. Probably in keeping with her personality, the majority of the visitors here have been friendly, chatty and willing to help each other. The RV resort is about 10 minutes from St. Joseph, MI and multiple rural wineries in the area (a favorite pastime for my wife Audrey). St. Joseph’s is a small town located on Lake Michigan with excellent food, event venues and a lovely white sand beach. Be sure to stop at the Chocolate store in town & Silver Lake Pizza for a desert/dinner well worth the time. The town of Benton Harbor itself once was booming city/community, which has come into hard times, but we did not have any problems traveling around that area. This area also has a non-defunct amusement park attached to the campground which is being slowly renovated by a group of volunteers. They have restored several of the buildings, a fountain and a miniature train which takes visitors on a 1/4 mile ride on Saturday/Sunday. Additionally, the camp is home to it’s own 1800’s era baseball team which plays home and away games in the old bare handed style! Behind the camp is a now mostly abandoned religious enclave called the House of David which was started in the late 1800’s/ early 1900’s (Google it!). Some interesting architecture and several restored mansions for the 5 remaining members of the group. I recommend this park for someone wanting a quiet, clean stay.

After a long day of driving, we were going to stay at a Walmart or rest area, but we decided we would like to put out the slides in our trailer and enjoy the night a bit more than we could at a Walmart.

Picked this campground using Campendium even though it had no reviews.

The gate attendant introduced herself and shook my hand welcome. What a nice touch! After we signed in, she even thanked me for staying at their campsite.

Our site was a 30amp with water, the site was a huge 25' by 100'. The 50 amp sites with full hookups looked a lot smaller. Decent playground for the kids, dog friendly.

The $27 was after a Good Sam discount ($3.00) . There is a dump station and showers that are clean.

15 minutes from I94.

The only reason I rated it 4/5 overall was because it was not in the wilderness.

Would gladly stay here again.
