A lovely campground for a quiet getaway.

We love to camp at Whitewater Township Park! We always meet wonderful people and have a blast!

Exceptional customer service. Absolutely hands down the friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered. You can tell they like their jobs and want campers to have the best experience. The park is super cute. I love the layout. Each site is spacious and private. The lake views are breathtaking. I can’t wait to go back.

It was a nice weekend. Staff are friendly and helpful. It was a nice surprise having the free firewood too along with the sticks we pick up from our site. Bathrooms are nice and clean.

Great sites and great fun things going on. Need better website that is up to date with events and dates of operation. Closing “Early October” is not something you can plan with. How about an actual date?

We had a great time camping over the Halloween weekend! Zach and the rest of the staff did such a great job decorating and hosting such a fun event. Our site was as pictured and the bath house was super clean.

Absolutely love it here we try and go every year now! It’s quiet and peaceful and everyone is the nicest! We come here for fishing and we stay here it’s right next to the launch! I would recommend going here:)

Great campground to stay at. We’ve been staying here for over 30 years.

The part is so well-maintained, and at such a beautiful setting on Elk Lake. Park attendants are courteous and very willing to help. We have chosen that park for our annual camp event for family and friends because of its close proximity to all of the towns that ring Grand Traverse Bay.

We go here for the boat ramp access. It's a great location on Elk lake. Plenty of parking and their ramps are very nice and deep. The cost to launch as of August 2025 is $10, which is a fair price for the quality of the launch. If there was one con, it is that there are not real restrooms (porta potties) near the launch and there is about a 3/4 mile dirt road you will drive down to access the park. Sometimes the road is smooth sometimes it has not been. There is also a nice picnic area to hang out at as well.

The campground was absolutely beautiful and incredibly peaceful. There was plenty of easy access to the lake and stunning views all around. The facilities were clean and well-maintained. Vicki was especially helpful—she gave us great advice on everything to do in and around the campground. Highly recommend!

Very nice quiet park with very nice, clean and up to date bathroom facilities. Showers are .25 cents for a 7 minute shower. Shower and bathroom stalls are limited but very nice. Our campsite is huge and beautiful and so peaceful. The waters of Elk Lake are clean, clear , refreshing, and so enjoyable. The young man who checked us in was very helpful and polite.
