Beautiful Barnes Park, right on the shores of East Grand Traverse Bay, is not only a great campground and place to hike and enjoy the beach and forested trails, but also is the home of the Antrim County Petoskey Stone Festival, www.petoskeystonefestival.com, held on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend every year. The festival is filled with fun events, food,... More

The view is gorgeous, and the sand is nice and clean. Can't say anything about the camping as we just spent a few hours at the beach. The only downside I saw as far as the beach was that from the edge of the water in to the bay quite a bit were rocks. Slippery rocks the size of your... More

I am originally from the area and have many options of places to stay, but this is my #1 choice. The campground is one of the best I have ever been to. The sites are wooded and mostly private, the bathrooms are always clean and well stocked. But the best thing of all is the other campers you meet, most... More

Nice campground. Bathrooms are clean. That's so important! Family friendly. Dog friendly. Staff seems a bit odd, and a bit unorganized, but were nice. Enjoyed our 4 night stay. The easy access to Traverse City and points north makes it convenient.

This is a favorite place of ours for camping. It is always very clean - the beach, the grounds, the well-kept playground and field, and bathrooms/showers. Yes, there are insects outdoors, but this year's weather seems to have doomed the mosquito population. There are several convenient places to get ice and firewood. The campground is quiet, and the staff patrols... More

We spent the weekend in Eastport, Michigan. As far as I can tell, there are two reasons to go to Eastport - camping on Grand Traverse Bay or Torch Lake. The beauty of Grand Traverse Bay is undisputable and the locals say that National Geographic magazine once ranked Torch Lake as the third most beautiful lake in the world. Eastport... More
