This campground was nice, but crowded on a weekend. Recommend staying during the week. Our site was large and very wide, but rude campers parked too many cars too close to road making things very tight for big rigs. Twice I had to ask people to move cars/trucks and bikes. Rangers need to enforce vehicle limits on site and have people move vehicles within 3 feet of road through campground so people can back into sites. The area is beautiful and light house area is very nice. There is a tiny crowded beach at the campground. East Tawas City downtown had some nice shopping and dining. A convenient stop over going from N to S or S to N while visiting MI.

Expensive CG for what you get. Just electricity. Water and dump available. Does have a small beach and the lighthouse is walking distance. Sites are wide but grass. Crowded and no privacy. Did get a few TV channels.

We camped here over Labor Day weekend, so the campground was packed. Sites offer no privacy. I think ours was the most private site in the campground with one side being up against some bushes.
The walk to the lighthouse and the trail to the point is nice, in spite of all the mosquitoes.
We were disappointed by the "camper beach" and didn't realize that there was a bigger beach in the park until later in our stay. There is also a dog beach, that isn't big enough to play ball on but is nice if your dog wants to go swimming.
This is probably a great campground in the shoulder season, but next time I would try to get a spot at East Tawas City Park which has a wonderful beach and full hookups.
