Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Camp-Resort

Amber

This is my families favorite Jellystone. If we didnt live so far from it we'd definitely have a seasonal lot here! The staff are amazing and it shows that they truly love what they do! The park has tons of amenities amd they offer a full schedule of activities for the kids as well as some for adults too! Its rustic with the amenities you need to not feel off grid. So you still get a more Northern Michigan feel. They have a fantastic halloween line up. But we plan on going there for more next year! The only down fall here is the wood for fires isnt cheap and were those campers that love to sit by a fire, so we definitely spend a lot in wood here. The other camp grounds we visit allow you to bring in the certified wood from a local area, this one doesnt. But that is the only downfall. Aside from that it's still our favorite place to camp!

We rented a camper here for the Nightmare Before Closing, such a great time! To start, the camper was AMAZING! It was spacious, clean, with a nice fireplace that was more than enough to keep the camper warm. The staff was absolutely wonderful as well. They answered any and all questions with smiles. We will definitely be back to do this again, and would recommend this to anyone. Thank you for such a great time! Can't wait til next year.

Enjoy taking our kids to Jellystone. Last trip was for one of their Halloween weekends the 3rd weekend of September. At age 9 & 13 there is still something for them to do all day long. It’s nice to have a safe location where the kids are able to enjoy the activities so mom and dad can enjoy a walk or sitting by the fire while they play. Also a welcoming atmosphere. Can’t wait for our next camping trip there.

We had an amazing time camping at Jellystone in Grayling! They had nonstop fun activities for kids of all ages. The amenities were top notch and kept my daughter happy the entire time we were there, no matter what the weather was. The staff is very friendly and helpful and they go the extra mile to make sure you have what you need. We will absolutely go back!! We can’t wait until we can go back next summer.

This campground is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful, guiding us to our spacious and well-maintained site. The facilities were spotless, with clean restrooms and showers that made our stay comfortable. Evenings were peaceful, with quiet hours enforced. What truly sets this campground apart is the sense of community. We met friendly camp help who created a warm and inviting atmosphere while promoting activities to keep the kids entertained. The campground also offers a range of activities for all ages, from swimming to organized games and events every hour. Our kids always have a blast, and we appreciated the safe and family orientated environment. Overall, our experience at this campground was exceptional. It's a perfect blend of natural beauty, excellent facilities, and a welcoming community. We can't wait to return and create more unforgettable memories. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun filled family camping experience!

This park is amazing! We (my wife, my daughter and myself) bought our first camper, a travel trailer 7 years ago. Our first year we booked a trip to this park with a group of friends and absolutely fell in love as our daughter was 1.5 yrs old at the time. The next year we went up 3 or 4 times with friends. The following year we did the 6 weeks early season camping special by ourselves and booked several more trips with and without friends, one of which was a 10 day stay during the 4th of July week and always ended our year there with a Halloween weekend. We sold our travel trailer and bought a 5th wheel and 3 years ago we were blessed with the opportunity to become seasonal campers! This will be our third summer as seasonals and we literally try to make it to the campground every weekend that they're open. We have made so many amazing friends there over the last 7 years. We call the other seasonal campers our camping family. We even hang out with a handful of them in the "non camping season" and keep each other calm while we go through camping withdrawals! Lol Over the years we've got to know the old owners and the current owners very well. Both did and have done an amazing job ALWAYS making us and everyone they encounter feel like family and friends. The staff is amazing as well, a lot of them are younger girls and boys that are still in Highschool, they do an extraordinary job running and participating in the daily activities while engaging with the kids. Many of them have grown up camping there themselves and know exactly what the camping kids and adults love when it comes to the one on one interactions a lot of the activities involve. This park is out in the middle of forest in Grayling and gives you that I'm in the outdoors camping feeling while still having an amazing list of activities, themed weekends and amenities to provide you with constant stimulation ALL day long of that's what you're looking for. Or you can lay back and watch the ground squirrels scurrying about, birds singing, maybe see a deer while taking a morning stroll. You can go lay by the pool and catch some rays, play putt putt, volleyball, basketball, frisbee in the park, take a bike ride, wagon ride, watching movies/cartoons at night on the outdoor screen, dancing the night away at the glow dance in front of the ranger station, etc..... All in all this park has become our home away from home for almost 7 months a year literally almost every single weekend and several full weeks from late April through The middle of October. I recommend this park to everyone that wants to go camping whether you're in a tent, camper, renting a cabin or a rental camper. There's something for everyone here at Jellystone Park Grayling Michigan!!!

My family and I have been staying here for years; we have always had great experiences! Each year new equipment is added for guest use, each year new activities are introduced, my kids always look forward to our weekends at Yogi (they are 8 and 11). They are always wondering “what new things will they have this year” and have never been disappointed! We are anxiously awaiting spring so we can get back there for more camping fun!

I have been coming here with my family every fall for 5 years! It's now a tradition for our family - and wouldn't want to miss it for the world. The new owners seem to be making upgrades every year, which is nice. They have rental campers and cabins now- which is good for those without campers. Trick or Treating is done well. They added story time with the bears and glow hayrides (my son loves) and donuts with cindy (my daughter loves)....and the food options seem to keep expanding every year. I recommend purchasing a souvenir slushie and popcorn bucket from the snack area (first fill is free) and to refill its less then $2. We easily fill up at least 2 or 3 times during the weekend. Yogi cartoons are a classic and great to see before my favorite part- the GLOW DANCE! So much fun. Looking forward to another 5+ years here making memories with my kiddos.

We stayed last year and rented one of their RVs. No where in the listing does it say they don’t supply hand soap for the RV, we found out while going to use the bathroom and had to buy some. It was fine, we bought soap and went about our stay. This year, I booked for the same weekend. Within 5 days we had to cancel our reservations. The website states there is a $50 cancellation fee (price gouging, in my opinion, especially considering we cancelled almost 5 months away from our reservation). I paid $623 for our 3 night stay in their RV and with my refund only had $533 returned. Not sure where the hidden fees are that I was charged $90 for cancellation. I also did not realize that it cost $35 to be able to select a site near your family. This charge should have been refunded with the cancellation. No where on their site does it say we will not get the site selection back with cancellation. This campground got $90 out of me for a reservation I held for 5 days. Our family has been coming here for years, what a shame that it’s turned into a money pit filled with hidden fees and price gouging.

We stayed here for the first time in June of 2023, and what an awesome park! The staff was amazing, the campground helpers were right next to us, and they were an amazing family and so helpful! The sites are nice and big! The place is pet friendly, and there were a lot of little trails we could walk the dogs down. There is SO much for kids to do here! There is so much outdoor stuff to do around the area! We took our dogs on a lot of hikes and did some Jeep rides on some awesome trails! It's a great location, and a really fun atmosphere!
