Campsite: Muskegon County Pioneer County Park

What a pain. Must do online. 34 a night plus an 8 dollar charge for running your credit card! I was told no further fees but of course at check in, we had to pay 5 a day for each vehicle to have a parking pass....another 20.

We had electric hook up and sewer. Only used the electric. The park itself is nice. The views are great of the lake and they even have an overlook deck to view the lake or the stars at night 🌙 There is a large play area for the kiddos as well as lots of space for other activities like volleyball, basketball etc..

Google seems to think this is a hotel lol. It's a campground :)

Campsite: Holiday Park Campground

Loved this park!! The quietness was SO nice! Lots of deer live here :)) Very large to explore and walk! Right outside Benbrook so very convenient to almost anything u need or would like! Added plus that it is an Army Corp Park and therefore gives a discount for the America the Beautiful Pass :) Employees were very kind and (for the most part) curtious and willing to help :) (one woman was just a grump ....when someone says "Hello. How are you?" You DON'T resond with "What do you want?" Especially representing a Park. There's just no need. She could have easily smiled and said "Fine. How can I help you?" ...glad I only had ONE interaction with her.)

Everyone else ALWAYS had a smile on their face!!

Park was built in the 50's. Most restrooms need serious updating but they are working on it! The bath house to the far right of the gatehouse has been redone and photo included:) which, was a great shower, btw, nice and hot!

Made it into Benbrook for some Christmas lights too!!

Had a weird thing while there though....

When I came into our spot the first thing I saw was a wadded up air mattress under the picnic table provided. I shrugged and pulled it to the end of the drive. Then went to hook up the electric and found a poo bucket that had to be moved for me to even plug into the box! Upon moving it, I realize VERY quickly there was "stuff" in it!!!

🤢

I walked it away from the electric post and continued on setting up. I told the gatehouse about it as we left for town. Told them I could and would move the mattress for him (older man...shouldn't have to pick up after others, understand it's his "job" but yall should JUST BE better!) to the dumpster that was right down the way but the poo bucket...well, that was ABOVE MY pay grade. I told him I wished they could go back on an old tenet that left things like that! Just shameful!! He said he wished they could too but that guy didn't "normally" do that...come to find out, people stay for the 2 week max then leave for a 16day minimum and come back for another 2weeks year round...so. we go to town. Come back. Mattress got moved to the trash. Poo bucket got moved..... to a different site where there appears to be a tent mishap.

OK then.

Continued on....gave my boy a shower in the camper and got him in bed... a bit later, I go to shower and there's NO water. None of the camper was working even tho it just did for my son not even an hour previous. I Google possible problems then went out to investigate. No leaks anywhere. Not under the camper or from the hose.

What I did find tho...SOMEHOW my spigot was COMPLETELY shut off. About 8 plus full turns.....

I'm no rocket scientist here but pretty sure the person that left his sh*t bucket and air mattress for others to clean up thought I pissed in his Cherios.

Great park, people should be held accountable and told to NEVER come back.

Crazy is as crazy does lol

Good news was: that's all that happened. Kinda funny now. Was a Lotta nerve wrecking then...like, will my tires be sliced when I wake?

Naw, just turned off the water on me 😅🫣🤭
