Very nice campground with many sites on the river. Full hookup and nice showers and bathrooms. Pool was closed for the season but looked very nice. Enjoyed a ride on a he riverboat.

What a nice relaxing (but chatty sold out group!) boat ride on the river. Didn't see the Eagles but did catch some Egrets & Cranes, plus a little convention of turtles. It was a beautiful day, good price, and I'm glad we went.

We had a beautiful place on the river, which was gorgeous! The sites were a just ok, for the price we thought the grounds were not exactly kept nice. They have a very late check in time, and although they let us in an hour early… it wasn’t without trying to explain we were coming from 30 mins away from the last campground and we had no where to go for hours. Shouldn’t take over 4 hours to accommodate the few campers coming in earlier.

Our 184th stop found us at Steamboat Park Campground, where we enjoyed a five-night stay. This park served as an excellent base for exploring Grand Rapids, which is just a short 15-minute drive away. Its proximity to gas stations and shopping centers was also a significant convenience. The staff at the front desk were exceptionally friendly and helpful. While no physical pamphlets or booklets were provided upon check-in, all necessary rules and policies were communicated clearly and concisely via email, which we found efficient. The campground is situated along the Grand River, and we were fortunate to snag a site backing directly onto the water. Leveling our rig was a breeze – one of the fastest experiences we've had! Most other sites appeared similarly level. The main park road is paved, leading to crushed gravel sites. Each site boasts a concrete pad, picnic table, and fire ring, and they are generally well-shaded in the back half of the park, tucked away from the main thoroughfare, and pleasantly quiet. Important Tip: Pay close attention to the arrival instructions provided in their email; they are crucial for a smooth entry. Overall, Steamboat Park Campground is a solid choice for those looking for a peaceful and convenient spot near Grand Rapids. We'd rate it a strong 4.3 out of 5 stars. Connectivity (4 pm): T-Mobile 1.54 down/0.33 up; Verizon 39.3 down/1.91 up; Park Wifi (5 ghz)2.46 down/1.1 up (2.4 ghz)1.19 down/0.0 up; over 40 over the air channels. On the weekends, tower congestion and overload of the park WiFi made basic internet difficult during peak times.

My stay at Steamboat Campground was fantastic, the people over it was very friendly. The park itself was clean, well-maintained. I had to leave earlier than plan they refunded me for the days I wasn’t goin to be there no questions asked unlike most other campgrounds. I’d highly recommend Steamboat Campground to anyone who is in the Grand Rapids area!

First time staying at this campground and it was very nice. Large lots with full hookups and concrete patio pads. They have a very nice and clean bathhouse. The river boat was not running yet as we were there early in the season but will be going back later this summer for a river cruise.

Nice, newer park located along the Grand River. We had a site which backed-up to the river and had a concrete pad for the picnic table, gravel parking area. Park is clean and tidy. Staff was helpful. Great location for camping near Grand Rapids.

Wonderful campground !! Beautiful view on the river. We stayed 3 nights in space #34 with our 43 ft Class A. Easy in/out & spacious yard. Nice cement patio with gravel ground for RV’s. Clean. Lots of good activity at the pool. You do need to drive through a residential street towards the Airport to get to the Campground. Airport noise was NOT a problem!! There is also a paddle boat with tours available. Very cool. Yes…. we would definitely stay here again.

Love this campground. Immaculate bathrooms stocked with good TP and absorbent paper towels. Scenic and peaceful location. Not a whole lot for kids (standard playground and pool) but we don't want too many kids around anyway. Annoying little buggers. Did I mention clean and refreshing bathrooms? That's really important. A little afraid of the luxuriously abundant, possibly carnivorous, poison ivy. I fear it is developing sentience and may creep over my camper some night and devour us both. Especially now that I've provoked it. Would probably cost a fortune to totally eradicate though and I don't want to pay more to camp here so there's that. Highly recommend.

Great location and is right along side the river. Full service sites. Easiest way to reserve, pay and communicate. Very clean and nice showers and restrooms

We pulled in here for a night on our trip. Nice playground, quiet, and great views. Be careful if you have little ones there are some steeper slopes near the river. Most campsites have a gentle slope to go down to the river and fish.

Beautiful setting along the river. Nice and quiet. Good facilities

Nice campground! Did a pull through, full hook up site. Quiet and peaceful right along the river. Definitely doing the steamboat ride next time we stay!
