Orchard Beach State Park

Orchard Beach State Park is a campground in Manistee, MI 49660. Review excerpts describe it as a large campground with tent camping and many trailer sites, and some sites have electric hookups. The campground has also been described as a simple place to stay with bathrooms and showers.

Verified review comments note that the bathhouses and showers were very clean, with strong water pressure, and that there are doggy stations for convenience. Staff were described as helpful when guests extended their stay. Site conditions vary, though, and one review mentioned that Site 126 was not level and could get messy after rain. Another comment noted that many sites are close together and that people often park parallel to their site.

Reviews also mention views of Lake Michigan, while noting that beach access was closed because of erosion and that steps to the beach were blocked off. Trails are close by, and one review said a hike on the trail was available, though another noted that trails leading to the water had been closed or removed and did not offer water views. This campground suits campers who want a straightforward stay with electric hookups, clean facilities, and access to nearby trails.
