Campground Reviews

It's kinda pricey compared to a state park but there's lots of amenities. Kinda bummed that they charged us extra for a second tent.

An outstanding campground!! We spent 4 nights in the campground in a full hook-up-pull-thru site with our Big Rig and were very satisfied with the entire experience; the owner and staff were very friendly and helpful. We will stay at this campground again when we are back in Michigan and traveling through the area next year. mw

Very Clean campground with great showers, best we've seen in Michigan. Friendly staff, very helpful. Please note that full hook up does not always include sewer availability. That was the only problem in a whole weeks stay. See you next July!

You were on a water electric site which is not considered a full hook up site.

We had six visitors on 7/16/21 and they were charged $5.00 each to visit our camp site #78, which is a ridiculous amount of money. To make matters worse, four revisited our site the next morning and were charged $5.00 each again. Our group was on site numbers 77, 78 & 79, which were more than ample to accommodate an additional car at each site. But our guests had to park in the visitors lot.

The Gaylord KOA is a well-run operation. The park is clean and the sites are well spaced. One recommendation I would offer is that they improve the entrance road and the road after going through the gate. The road is either quite muddy when wet (and get all over your tow vehicle or the camper) or very dusty when dry.

Loved the park and the staff was friendly! However did not like our site.. It said big rig friendly, but the site they put us on had three tree stumps on it, making it really cramped. There was a stamp right out from our door, but we couldn’t have moved over any because we were inches away from the electricity box. All of the other sites loved nice and spacious!

Loved the location and our deluxe cabin. Everything we needed. The park was full and yet very peaceful.

Fix the entry road so that it's not so muddy or dusty.

It was amazing!

The workers were nice and helpful but our site was awful. We were stuck facing an electrical transformer/meters which cut our space by over half. It was dirt/sand, barely any grass. Cigarette butts everywhere. The site across from us had dogs that barked constantly and were left outside unattended. Campers parked in the back row that looked abandoned.

This was the absolute last campground available 4 our Mackinac Trip. For that, I’m thankful. The staff was super friendly. However, the bathrooms are awful! They are dirty and do not get cleaned! I know this because a perfect dirt footprint was in the shower and it was there the entire stay! The shower stalls are tiny, the shower curtain dirty and tiny! The toilet stalls are tiny! So 3 stars.

The showers & bathrooms are clean & water hot for shower. The grounds are clean & there is a nice hiking trail head right inside the campgrounds. The sites have plenty of room. The store is great & has most items people tend to forget including souvenirs . The only downside was the heated pool was actually somewhat cold even on an 84 degree day.

We are glad you enjoyed your visit! We actually heat the pool to 80 degrees.

never put someone next to the grouchy old man that works there so the first thing he says to you is if i here anything i will tell you to be quiet. let people unload their car before you tell them to move. put a curtain on the front door. make sure all the lights work. fix the top step so people dont fall. I'm pretty sure i was suppose to have a patio, I'' stop there

Nice clean campground with pleasant and attentive staff. The recreation hall (bath house) is a bit tired looking and needs to be updated.

We stayed 4 days and even though it rained a lot we still had a good time. The people who work here are very kind and helpful.

It was very relaxing and quiet. Big camping spots. Clean restrooms . The pool was great!!!!

Great facilities. Stay was disrupted by very loud neighbors that played music, tv and video games late until well after midnight. The tv was outside and everyone around us knows Disappointed one of the employees that passed by didn’t say anything to them later in the evening to turn things down.

Great campsites. As big as the campground is there aren't enough washers and dryers to accommodate. The office staff was very friendly but the outside staff were not friendly. Never waved as they passed by. Didn't see any smiles either. Camping is a feel good experience but staff wasn't into it.

Wonderful as always!

Relatively quite and well kept site. Muddy when it rains, but drains and drys quickly enough. Water, power, cable all worked well as did the dump station. I’d return.

I stay here all the time with my kids, I have never had a issue with staff they have always been friendly and helpful. everything has always been clean, plenty of nature and piece and quiet. as for the bad reviews it seems if you treat staff with respect they will treat you the same. My kids may get a little obnoxious time to time and get a little word from one of the staff but thats their job to keep the rules enforced, the staff always comes to me respectfully if theres a issue and i handle it, same goes with my dogs. The owners there bust their humps to make sure everone is happy and things are in order, they have gone out of their way with requst when i have asked them for something. Always a awesome, quite, fun and clean place to relax and enjoy the wilderness.
