One of our favorite parks is South Higgins State Park. Big campground with a huge lake that is shallow for a long ways. It's easy to sit on the shore and watch the kids in the water. They have a decent camp store that the kids would like to go get ice cream, etc...
Van Buren State Park is fun also. Big sand dunes that the kids can climb.
I was able to get 2 nights booked at South Higgins SP about 1 month ago. But based on the comments I received regarding swimmer's itch, I decide against it as my children are all under the age of 6. I cancelled those days and instead was able to squeeze a 4 day holiday at Mackinaw's Mill Creek CG on the Fourth of July. We have a lakefront fireworks view so it should be a nice mid summer trip.
We have a combined week planned at Grand Haven SP, Silver Lake YB Jellystone, and Ludington SP. The kids will be "sand-duned" out when we return home. I'll keep the Van Buren park in mind for next year. Thanks
