Jayco-noslide,
There are 2 CG in SBNL. Platte River CG which has electric on 3 of the 4 loops and DH Day CG which is rustic and for a reason. DH Day was Michigan's very first State Park with a CG dating back over 90 years ago. DH Day CG became part of the SBNL NP when the area became a National Park back around 1970 and it was agreed upon that DH Day (David Henry Day who was a US senator and owned much of the land in SBNL and donated it to the State of Michigan as a public park) would remain as it had been all those years before. DH Day's farm, huge barn, and home are kept in restored preservation still today. Simply gorgeous and ornate! Just over the hill is the old restored buildings in the port of Glen Haven where the fruit and fish canning industry thrived and ships stopped to get firewood for their boilers each trip thru L. Michigan and L. Huron. All in SBNL. Forests everywhere!
My nephew (Sister's son) was a Michigan State Park ranger at Platte River CG when it was also a state park before being a National Park. He transferred to the National Park service for many years when/after the area became a national park. He's retired now.
