About this campground

Orchard Beach State Park in Manistee Michigan is situated on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan. A stairway leads from the partial and primitive (no water, electric, or sewer) hookup RV and tent campground to the beach and self-guided hiking trails are adjacent to the park.

What campers say

Orchard Beach State Park offers striking Lake Michigan bluff views and convenient access to nearby town and trails. Camp facilities consistently receive praise for exceptionally clean restrooms and showers, and staff are described as friendly and helpful. Expect small, closely spaced sites with limited privacy; some sites are uneven and roads are narrow, which can make backing or unhitching awkward. Beach stair access is currently restricted in places due to erosion, so plan to drive to nearby beaches if shoreline access is important. Overall it’s a scenic, family-friendly park that balances excellent facilities with modest site size and access trade-offs.
