Thunder Bay Campground

We like it here. It’s nice and quiet. The sites are large. Not much to do though.

Made reservations several months ago. Owner does not take CC info to reserve spot. Arrived and were told walk ins had taken all the spots and park was full. All other parks were full, due to a softball tournament in the area. Ended up sharing a lot with a homeless tenter, which was awkward. Lots of seasonals, several homeless sites, unkempt, unorganized owner. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!

This place is a dang JOKE! We made reservations months in advance. When we arrived a man on a golf cart approached our vehicle and asked if we had reservations and we told him Yes we made them a month ago. He said well people pulling in off the streets have already filled all the camping spots so we nothing else available. Don't recommend. We actually found a very nice place about 12 minutes away called Paul Bunyan Family Campground. They were very welcoming and able to fit us in with full hookup. They are also aware that the man at this campground does this quite a bit! ...We do not recommend going to THUNDERBAY!

This campground is awesome. It’s extremely clean and quiet. The bathrooms and showers are nice and clean. The guy that runs the place is super friendly. They have amazing rates and seasonal pricing. I’ll be coming back here many times a year for many seasons to come.

We like quiet, shady trees, level sites that are not crammed together and plenty of room to walk our dogs. This fits the bill, although in peak season with all sites full and families with kids it might be louder. Still, sites are large enough for some to park their trailer, large boat and tow vehicle with room to spare. 50 Amp service, good water, interesting trails to roam and just far enough off the highway that traffic noise isn't a bother. Some playground equipment for kids and room for them to ride bikes or have a ballgame. Basketball court, too. Cannot describe the bathhouse as I do not care for public bathing or public restrooms when I have my own.

This is a very clean park with nice size level lots. Lots to do in Northeast Michigan with several clean inland lakes within 20 minutes of the park and Lake Huron just a few minutes away.

Very nice, quiet, well maintained campground on the south edge of Alpena MI. We made reservations well in advance for a stay over Labor Day weekend. We arrived after check-in 11:00 and called the number on the check-in shack. The owner, Debbie, answered and was away from the campground but she directed us to our site and said we could catch up with the paperwork when she got back. They have limited 50 amp sites which we requested and it is quite wooded so our roof mounted satellite dish searched, but stowed after failing to see satellites. AT&T reception is good so we will stream here. There is electric and water, but no sewer at the sites. They have a dual dump station and I believe I saw a honey wagon driving around. Many of the sites are occupied with seasonal campers and the campground is expected to fill up over the holiday weekend. When Debbie arrived she asked if we were active or retired military, law enforcement, fire fighter, etc and I qualified so we received a healthy discount, which we really appreciated. Four out of five due to lack of full hook-up, but the discount made up for that. I would definitely camp here again. Nice place!

Very quiet and relaxing campground. Staff and management are extremely friendly and willing to accommodate. All sites have water and electricity, including tent sites. Bathroom and showers are very clean. Campground even offers some hiking trails for quick nature walks. Will be back again!
