Where to camp on Michigan rivers ?
Does anyone know where I could camp along a river with a 27ft TT. In the past I've always camped in a van with a tent and could go anywhere I wanted. This trailer seems to big to drive down two tracks...

Your best bet might be the state forest campgrounds. Scout out Canoe Harbor, Parmalee Bridge and Rainbow Bend CGs to see if you're comfortable driving your rig in there and if the water looks promising.
Farther upstream near where you were, in a pinch you might be able to stay at Shupac Lake (1/2 mile from the river) and still fish familiar holes.
I'm quite certain you could fit in at Alcona Park located on the Alcona Dam Pond, and drive a short distance to access more suitable river sections. Alcona Park is quite large and has developed sites on the east side of the pond as well as rustic sites on the west side. If nothing else, this might be a great place from which to do your scouting run.
There are a couple of SF CGs on the upper Manistee, too. Not that far from where you'll be looking.
