You drop your money in the box pick a spot of as much space as you want (there is hardly ever a lot of people).\n\nThe last 2 times we went there was maybe one or two people with their horses or just passing thru.\n\nThere are bathrooms and a well for water. No showers No electric.\n\nThe river runs by and is awesome to go tubing down.\n\nThere are trails that go through so if you are an equestrian this spot is perfect.",

      "reviewBody": "I like the location; very secluded in the State Forest but only a half hour from downtown Traverse City. This facility meets the recreation need of a diverse cross section of Michigan residents. It’s a great home base or overnight camp for canoeists and kayakers (my particular interest). The camp is also used by mountain bikers &amp; gravel riders, ATV riders, anglers, and equestrians (separate camp area).  Large wooded sites. Primitive means vault toilets, no power and hand pump water. No reservations — FCFS. \n\nNegatives: can be noisy at times with the ATVs and also large camping groups. But for the most part I’ve found ppl to be respectful. A couple of the sites flooded after an unusually heavy rain today, so I would avoid any site that looks low if rain is expected. \n\nSite 16 is good. High and dry after the rain. \n",
