We invite you to visit or stay in beautiful Old Orchard Campground, which is one of the largest campgrounds in Northeast Michigan. Located within the Huron-Manistee National Forest, along the River Road Scenic Byway, the park which is nearly four miles long, overlooks Foote Pond, which formed after the construction of Foote Dam in 1916, on the AuSable River. The park is open from March 15 thru November 30 each year, with plenty of outdoor recreation opportunities for all three seasons therein. This public recreation facility is part of a Consumers Energy Hydroelectric Dam Project licensed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and is operated under the authority of the Township of Oscoda.
From jct US-23 & River Rd (at stop light in Oscoda): Go 8 mi W on River Rd.
Ok so im not one to complain but absolutely hands down favorite place ever to go BUT the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting even after being clean I don't feel they do a good job and definitely scope out your campsite cause I found on the picnic table a live 410 shot gun shell and fish hooks all over the ground so I think they need to actually look over the site after people leave as my 5 yr old found several fish hooks
Family has been going for generations best place in the state to stay! Family friendly, fishing and swimming
Old orchard is awesome park in an awesome spot along the Au Sable river, so much to do in the surrounding area, such a beautiful area. Been coming up my whole life since 1 month old
This campground has beautiful views of the lake. There’s tons on trees though out the campground and in most the of campsites. Which could make it tricky for people to pull campers in and out. The bathrooms were not the best. People trash them so badly throughout the day. You have to pay .50 (you purchase coins at the camp store) for 5 minutes of shower time. The water for the showers in bath house one is so hot that it’s uncomfortable to even use, it would have burned my kids skin. I had to drive to the back bath house just to let my kids take a shower, which is a bit of a hike to get back there from the front. The water hookup at weird, have to have splitter for everyone to use the water. Definitely a huge campground tho. Over all we had fun.
Went here growing up since I was very young. Now that I have my own family I'm grateful to share a great experience with them. We rented a yurt and left the camper behind and towed the boat instead. Lots of good fishing and fun traveling around the river. All around great experience. Even my teenager didn't want to leave.
