Camping

Just can‘t get enough of the great outdoors?

The Sleeping Bear Dunes boast some of the most spectacular camping spots in the National Park Service. Some spots have electrical hook-ups and modern plumbing. Others, such as those at the D.H. Day Campground, are more rustic. All are highly desirable and it‘s wise to reserve well in advanced. If all of the campgrounds are booked, be sure to check our partner hotels– there are often surprisingly affordable options.
