What campers say

Keith J. Charters Traverse City State Park offers a well-maintained, large campground with level gravel sites, picnic tables and clean restrooms and showers. It’s very convenient to Traverse City, beaches (walkover bridge), bike/rail trails and nearby attractions like Sleeping Bear Dunes, lighthouses and wineries. Many visitors praise helpful park staff and family-friendly facilities; some loops include access for off‑road riding. Expect it to be busy—sites often sell out months ahead—and be aware of practical tradeoffs: road and airport noise can be noticeable, and many campsites provide electric hookups with centralized water and dump stations rather than individual water hookups.
