Sturgeon Valley CG

Post by Travelers »

What a nice little campground.
Located at exit 301 of I75 in the City of Wolverine, MI. Somewhat center of the state in the top of the mitten.
Its location puts the tourist areas close to you: 39 miles South of Mackinaw City, 20 miles West of Petosky, plus Charlevoix and Cheboygan.

First its not full hook up. It has 30 amp electrical and water. Lots are 50 x 50 back in.
The Sturgeon River (with rainbow and brown trout) flows throught the property. Very wadeable. :thumbrt:

This cg has a history of good owner sold to someone who ran it down and ended up back with the original owner. (check RV park reviews)
The owners, Jean and Bob, are just good people. They stop by a couple of times a day to see if you need anything.
They supplied fire wood - $5 for a wheelbarrow full. Drained our tanks with the honey wagon for $5.
No pool so the kids that are there are for kayaking and tubing the river.

So if you're looking for a place to stop for the night or spend some time visiting the area, check this place out. Its is quiet.
And if your there during the week, Bob will turn turn the cg lights OFF for you.

Diann and I along with her sister Nancy and Lee spent 8 nights there. We just returned today. We had back to back lots.

Thanks John, We will definatley check it out.

My Dad used to take me fishing there when I was probably 8 years old. We used to stay at the State Park in Indian River and he always drug me out at 0 dark thirty in the morning to try a new stretch of the Sturgeon that he knew would have Mr. Jaws the Brown Trout just waiting to eat a night crawler.... Never did real well except when we'd head down to Trowbridge road. Great area! Nice stretch of river.
