End of a Busy Summer

Posted on October 24, 2018 by Mike Sonnenberg

It’s been a busy summer since I visited 46 different state parks. I took pics of all the bathrooms, beaches, playground, stores or anything I thought would be of interest. The trailer is winterized and ready to go into hibernation. This winter I plan on going through all my notes an pics and writing up reviews. I hope to compile them into a book at some point.

It’s was interesting visiting so many parks. they all have some wonderful reasons to camp at them and they all have some negatives, but I would camp at any of them any chance I could get.  I have a goal of camping at all of them and. I am up to about 30 parks that I have stayed overnight in. We camped at 8 different state parks this season and 4 of them were new to us. I made it to Ludington for a visit. I tried all summer long to get a campsite but no luck. hopefully next summer we will get to camp there.

Posted on October 16, 2018 by Mike Sonnenberg

Many state parks in Michigan offer camping all year long. Most of them are limited in the amenities during the winter season. Most of them close the modern bathroom facilities and only have pit toilets in the winter. There is also limited water and electricity.  Each park is different so if you plan on camping in the offseason be sure to check with the park to see what is available.

  • Algonac
