Michigan State Parks (Traverse City State Park)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 июл 2021
- Michigan State Parks are an affordable option when camping in Michigan. Wanting to explore Traverse City and the surrounding area, Traverse City State just made sense.
Michigan State parks are normally affordable and nice. This state park seemed to be pretty crowded with a lot of inconveniences nearby. We didn't let that stop us though. Traverse City State Campground is also centrally located to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lake Shore, Traverse City State Hospital, Leland Michigan, The Grand Traverse Lighthouse, and Michigans National Cherry Festival. Thanks for watching, hope you find this video helpful.

We always say that it is not a campground unless it has road noise, an airport, and trains running during the night...lol. Glad that you found all the fun things to do!
Haha yes that's kind of true! It was great for the location though.
PRO TIP: If you're intending to camp at TC State Park for it's "central" location, go a half-hour southwest on M-137 to Interlochen State Park instead. Cheaper, quieter, and less crowded (usually).
Thanks for the tip!
Keep heading north! Once you cross the bridge, then things get good!
Yeah! That's where we are now! It's beautiful UP here..😂🤔
Traverse City State Park was built when campers were smaller and tents were more common.
When kids love a campground there are no downsides, and kids love this campground.
Be like the kids and love it for what it is...
Yeah that is very true, we did like the campground. It's in a great location. Thanks for watching.
Lol welcome to the north east. Everything is tight busy and close together
Thanks! Yeah we are just use to the west. This park had a great location though.
Sometimes convenience trumps beauty. Nice review!
Thanks guys! We definitely agree. It's a trade off and we accept that reality lol.
I need to check it out one time. Maybe next yr.
It's a great area but the park could have been better.
I live near Sleepy Hollow State park here in Michigan. I love that one. Give it a try if you like biking and hiking. There is over 20 miles of trails. I stayed in Traverse City for my brother's birthday but didn't enjoy the park. It was not horrible but I like the area.
Thanks for the tips! We stayed at a few in Michigan that we really liked. Traverse was good to see the city and surrounding areas. Thanks so much for watching. 👍
Sleepy Hollow is a great State Park!
Hey, it’s good to mix it up now and then. It helps you appreciate the Boondocking out west! Have fun and keep filming.
Yes exactly and the location was perfect!
I have 20 acres in traverse City / kalkaska absolutely love it up there just do to it being so quiet and everybody is so friendly
Yes we did notice that as well, except for the actual city, that was VERY busy.
We were just at Goose Island State Park, Wisconsin....nice quiet place....not a heck of a lot to do but a good reset for a couple of days.
It's always great to get out and reset! Thanks for watching.
Enjoy catching up on your content.. if not too late, as you mosey thru the UP must see Copper Harbor. Beautiful area into Lake Superior! Has an awesome bike trail too. Tons of history in the area. BTY a very common hwy starts there - US 41 starting as a fur trade trail now travels south ending in Miami FLA!
Yeah we really wanted to go, but ultimately decided to save it for the next trip. There's too much to do up here!
I like her sunglasses way way better than the 1991 Nintendo sunglasses her husband has. 😂
Hey... It's called style lol hahaha
Certainly the roads and sites are small. These Big campers are from the last 10 years and the park was established in 1921. The state has better funding for the state parks but they cannot update every park at the same time. There is construction going on in many State parks but this was not on the list for this year. And the cons they talk about, When I was young this park was way outside of town. Now the Town has grown up around it. Not much you can do about that. They are right this is a more park inside of an urban location. Simply choose something else if that is not your cup of tea. Interlochen State Park only a few miles away is very good and a lot let noisy.
Thanks for the tips and the insight. Maybe they should not allow large rigs there?
We had a similar reaction to Sebago Lake State Park in Maine!
Oh bummer! We went to that lake a few years ago it's great. Thanks for watching.
@@AdventureEndeavor really enjoy your channel!
Thank you! We really try to keep the videos fun!
@@AdventureEndeavor love the lake, but the State Park was packed! I have a very telling photo I wish I could attach.
You guys should come to Frankfort and Point Betsie Light House
There's do much to see and so little time!
Should have stayed at interlochen state park. Or one of the further out rustic campgrounds. Down side is they are smaller sites so no class a's.
Yeah, we booked late and we had to take what we could get. Next time we will Plana little more ahead. Thanks for watching.
Wow the cost of that site is affordable. We are paying double and where you guys are looks super cooler.
Yeah it was pretty affordable, just wish it was a little more spread out. Thanks for watching.
You should try some of the County and Private parks in Michigan, usually much better than the state parks.
We have done both, this was just continent for the location.
We weren't happy with this campsite either!! Following along!! We are also sharing our travels in Michigan on our channel!! Melissa from RV Rolling with MJ
Yeah unfortunately it was not great! Very cool we will check out your channel later today!
@@AdventureEndeavor thanks!! Appreciate the support!!😃
👍
Yeah even when I was a kid that park has been that packed. Would never camp there again because of the road noise and in the city . That really isn't camping. Unless you're a fudgie. And want the tart trail . Much better camping else where within reach of the fun stuff to do.
Yeah very true, it did work for us to see the area. Next time we will find something better.
They locked me in at the beach! I was not happy. The younger guy that did it said he didn't see us. Not sure how you miss a full size van in the beach parking lot.
Oh man that's a bummer! How did you get out?
Stop complaining and enjoy camping. 😁
Haha, this video wasn't really a complaint, it was a review so viewers would know what to expect.
Too crowded and noisy. The location is good for visiting all the tourist sights. Hotels and condos run $300 dollars or more a night.
Yeah that was our thought, super busy.
Did you forget about the trains ? Haha
We saw them there, but didn't feel like we heard them! Thanks for watching.
Platt River campground is way better!
Isn't that a bit more south? The main thing we liked here was the location.
Hi Do you need some great lighting upgrade for your car to help you better driving, off-road and adventure.We're the pro auto lighting manufacturer for nearly 20 year and we're looking for sponsorship!
Oh hey guys! Can you please send us and email? We would like to talk about it. Thanks.
@@AdventureEndeavor Yes Sure l did send the email!
I live just the next town over and I cant stand Traverse City in general. Too busy for my liking plus other stuff. The state park is not placed in a convenient area. Its a city. It should not have a campground. There is an RV camp in Lake Leelanau(closer to wear my house is), and I have heard it is much better than the TC park.
Yeah, we liked Traverse City but it was our first time. Definitely busy though, thanks for watching.
I don't think that they can discriminate and keep their funding. Lots and lots of money and political horse power in Traverse City for Michigan. Remember this is a government run park.
Yeah idk we were just visiting, but if it's unsafe to have huge rigs in there idk.🤷♂️
its TRAV-erse not travers like you traverse a road . TRAVerse
We will probably never get it right! 😂🤣🤷♂️
Terrible designed park. Good review on it
Thanks, yeah the park was ok because of the location. Thanks for watching.
Nagging
This park was terrible hahab
