Campers longing for the rustic feel of the outdoors with some comforts of home can choose to vacation in one of Michigan state park or recreation area’s rustic cabins. To preview the rustic cabin experience, visit Bald Mountain Recreation Area during its Rustic Cabin Cookout and Open House from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, May 7.
Park personnel will be cooking hot dogs, serving chili and roasting marshmallows while offering tours of the parks’ two rustic cabins, the trails and grounds around them. The tour will showcase the cabins’ recent updates, including new log cabin furniture, mattresses, screens and fresh paint.
“With the cabins open and hot food cooking over the campfire, visitors will be able to visualize what their own camping experience would be like,” said Department of Natural Resources Unit Supervisor Tom Bissett.
Each cabin rents for $80 per night and sleeps up to 20 people. The cabins do not provide electricity or water; however, a wood stove provides heat for each cabin.
If a rustic cabin stay already sounds like a plan, cabin reservations can be made on-line at www.midnrreservations.com, or by calling the central reservation system at 800-447-2757.
Bald Mountain Recreation Area in Oakland County is located at 1330 E. Greenshield Rd. in Lake Orion, one and one-half miles east of M-24. Entrance to the cabins is off Harmon Road, north of Stony Creek Road.

I love your site, thanks for posting this article! The blurred background image sort of hurts my eyes (well, pretty badly bothers them actually) so for better user experience I would suggest changing it! :)
