Starting Sunday, June 1, Clear Lake State Park in Montmorency County will open to camping on a first-come, first-served basis and accept campground reservations, the Department of Natural Resources announced today. The campground recently received a complete electrical system upgrade and other campsite improvements.
With the electrical upgrade, all campsites have their own pedestal for power and every pedestal will have 20- and 30-amp service. In addition, some sites will also have 50-amp service.
“Campers won’t have to share pedestals with their neighbors or worry if there will be a 30-amp available anymore,” said Jerome Bischer, Clear Lake State Park lead ranger. “This should also solve the problems of brownouts and electrical shutdowns that happened frequently in the past.”
Other improvements include the addition of several large pull-through sites that eliminate the need to back up onto a campsite. These sites feature a hard, packed surface that accommodates large camping units. A number of traditional sites also were upgraded to a hard, packed surface, providing a better camping experience for campers with limited mobility.
“We listened to our customers and worked hard on creating the best accommodations to meet and anticipate their needs,” Bischer added. “Spending time with family and friends at Michigan’s beautiful state parks is a treasured tradition for many people. We want to make sure we are providing the best possible amenities to make their visits relaxing and memorable.”
To make a reservation, visit www.midnrreservations.com or call 1-800-44-PARKS (1-800-447-2757). Some sites may not be immediately available for reservations due to newly planted grass seed.
