Location was great. Close to the Pictured Rocks tour and multiple waterfall hikes. Lots of trees and friendly campers. Note to the manager however; please invest in updating the bathroom and shower facilities. Gross shower curtains, and shower stalls so tiny you can hardly move. The toilets were okay clean wise. We traveled over four thousand miles out west and back to Mi and this was by far the least kept up KOA. Also, I realize it's early September, but walking by the disgusting green pool was just an indicator of the lack of care and upkeep of the property.

We really enjoyed our stay at KOA Munising/Pictured Rocks! The campground was very clean and we loved that the campsites had some good separation with trees, or at least our tent site did. I saw other reviews complaining about the proximity of the highway and was fine with it at first, but it can be pretty loud, especially in the mornings. We could see the highway from our tent so it would be nice to be able to request a specific site rather than being assigned. The bathrooms were clean and nice for a campground restroom. The proximity to Munising and Pictured Rocks was excellent and made it very easy to get to all of our activities!

I chose to stay at this KOA after some friends recommended it! We tent camp, normally with our family but this was just an anniversary camping trip to see Pictured Rocks! Very clean bathrooms and showers. Friendly staff. One of the most quiet camp grounds I’ve ever stayed in! We actually slept in, instead of being woken by nature and playful children. There wasn’t any fancy bells and whistles to keep the kids busy all day but the area has so much to offer that they don’t need an arcade and camp ground activities all day for the kids. The pool looked clean and everyone said the water temps were warm. Will stay again.

Very clean and well managed campground. The campsites are around a central hub which includes a nice swimming pool and open yard for kids to play. The bathrooms, store, fire wood, potable water, ice, and other supplies are also there. The campsites are quite generously spread out and wooded, one of the better private campgrounds. We had a pull through, #52, and it was quite private, flat, we only got 20amp service, but there are sites with 30amp and 50 amp and very big pull through sites with the super big rigs and busses. It was fun to walk around and look at the assortment of RVs, people were friendly. There's a dog walking trail. Kids are riding bikes around. The people at the front desk were friendly and helpful. I would absolutely return.

We just camped here last week and loved it! Most sites are in a wooded area and it’s very clean. We were traveling from another campground and called ahead to see if we could check in early and they were very accommodating. The staff was great and very helpful throughout our stay. My only warning, DO NOT book sites 1-7 as they are right off the entrance and about 200 yards from the highway. It’s extremely loud with trucks and log haulers traveling 65-70mph. My whole family barely slept. Thankfully they were able to move us to another site for the rest of our stay due to a cancellation. Aside from that we enjoyed our stay and the convenience of being so close to everything.

I stayed in a tent and had an overall good experience in a somewhat wooded area on the edge of the property. The facilities were clean and convenient

We had a booking discrepancy coming back from the UP. Where we were in the UP put us too far from Pictured Rocks for a day trip. So it seemed like a miracle to get to stop here for a couple nights on our way south. The campground was beautiful. The sites were set up to allow maximum privacy. We weren't here very long, but we enjoyed it. Night time was dark and quiet and it was just where you want to be to experience everything the area has to offer.

A campground off of a main road outside of town. We stayed on a tent site on the edge of the property, right next to new development being built. The camp site had just enough space for a car, picnic bench, tent and campfire. Anything more than 4 people would be quite cramped. Because of the development there was construction noise in the morning, one day as early as 6am. The website stated that the tent sites included a sand pad however we didn’t encounter one at our site. We could also hear cars on the main road at night. The washroom facilities were adequate and were cleaned daily from noon to 2pm. There was hot water for both the showers and sink. There was also a laundry room that worked fine; they were $2 each for washer and dryer. The staff who checked us in was extremely friendly and helpful, but the service and hospitality was not consistent across all staff. It’s not a terrible option if you don’t have many choices but just be aware that it will be noisy.

Great KOA for fall colors. We just missed having access to the pool but nice little hikes and super close to the falls, pictured rocks and everything else we needed. Will visit again. Staff were awesome and welcoming!

This place is awesome! We didn't camp here but stayed at the hotel next door owned by the same individual. Because the pool was down in the hotel the owner said we could use the outdoor pool at the campgrounds. I think it was better this way. Beautiful weather and lots of kids for my little ones to play with.
