Up north Michigan trip on 8-09-09 to Tawas Point State Park site 197 electric only. Backs up to the dunes on Lake Huron.
Made reservation back in February. Tough to get the sites closest to the lake. One can walk from campsite to the beach.
The weather was perfect with water temperature around 65 degree's. Very refreshing since the air temps were in the upper 80's.

View from light house to Tawas Bay

One of the most photographed light houses in Michigan is at Tawas Point State Park.

Next stop Rifle River recreation area in Lupton Michigan. We stayed at the ranch rustic campground and used the solar panel.
What a great time on the river. Site backed up to the Rifle river.

Lot 152

The river was our view with many canoe trips passing by.

View from the road

My son and I enjoyed the river to cool off.
