Fort Custer State Recreation area doesn't get near the acclamation deserved mainly because it is inland from Lake Michigan and not nearly as well known as some of the more popular lake-oriented state parks on the west coast or in northern Michigan. Probably the main draw of the park besides the many private campsites is the outsta... more

I only live an hour away from this park and had no idea how nice it is. There are two loops in this park. Both have vegetation between sites, but the West Loop where my site was seems to have more than the East Loop. The trees and bushes gives a lot of privacy.

On arriving to this park I knew nothing. Coming here was an experiment even though I did have some pretty good intel from Campendium. My campsite was #46. Right next to the drinking water faucet, which in no way matters. A full fresh water tank is more than sufficient for a four night stay. The only problem I had with my hidden and ex... more
