Campsite: Lake Chemung Outdoor Resort

I have been a full-time camper since late 2014. I usually go south for the winter but needed to stick around this corner of the Michigan for certain obligations I had. I spent the winter of 2022/23 (5.5 months) at Lake Chemung. My street was mostly deserted as the majority of lots in the campground are park models (a notch above mobile homes) and most owners use them just for warm-weather homes. A minority of lots are paved campsites, which is what I had for my 40-Class A motorhome. I still had plenty of room between the street and my motorhome for my Wrangler.

The staff did a very good job of cleaning up the leaves in the fall (numerous times) plus maintaining the streets after a snowfall. They also did fine with their daily trash pickup, which was late in the day. Big Mike along with Bob (and his small dog) were wonderful in their role for security and trash pickup. They both bent over backwards to be nice to me, especially when my medical problems were acting up and keeping me inside for days at a time (other than to let my dog out to do her business).

I was able to receive my Amazon packages with no problem. They have a brand new hut by the entry gates for UPS, FedEx, USPS, etc. to safely deliver their packages and have them out of the weather. You can also rent a mailbox if you want to receive regular mail. I was told that without a mailbox rental, you should not receive regular mail.

When I felt up to it, I walked my dog around the campground. Their paved roads made the walk much more pleasant than most campgrounds with dirt or gravel roads. And, with 2 of the 4 restroom/shower buildings open and heated all winter, that was convenient for we older walkers when a putstop was needed.

Getting a 100+ gallon propane tank from Corrigan in Brighton was simple. They auto filled it, which made things very convenient.

The campground is conveniently located only a 10 minute drive from Walmart, Meijer, CVS, Walgreens, and all the fast food and regular restaurants, along with banks, gas stations, car washes, etc. And, it is only a 10 minute drive to I96 plus another 5 minutes east to US23 (to Flint or Ann Arbor).

Electricity was billed by Lake Chemung separately from the monthly lot rent with propane paid directly to Corrigan... all via credit card. Water and sewer was included in the lot rent, BTW.

All in all, my stay at Lake Chemung was very pleasant and if the need arose, I would be happy to stay there again.
