Staff was attentive and helpful. Grounds were clean and the hobbit cabin was a very neat stay. I’ll be back for sure

We love everything about this campground. We do not have young kids, but we are able to stay a little away from the action and take the dogs for walks to say hi to people. I just discovered the joy of having a pizza delivered to our camp site!

Bryan was the best camp host we could ever ask for! We truly enjoyed our stay and WILL be back! We had everything we needed and were comfortable.

I LOVED the KOA and what was offered. HOWEVER, I would NEVER stay in the travel trailer we did this past weekend. The floor was outrageously soft in multiple areas and I was afraid of falling through several times. There were no known active leaks, but the evidence of floor rot as soon as you walk in the door, sit on the toilet were quite apparent. The furnace did not work when I woke up freezing.

The park and facilities were fine for there age. The main issue was no Internet even though we were getting text messages constantly. Did not think the cost per night was represented other KOA parks.

Nicole and Brian are so helpful! Keeps out kids busy the whole time!

Seemed like it was going to be a lot nicer than it was. We paid $350 for 3 nights and had weeds and tree stumps all over our site. Brian came and tried removing them and he was great but we shouldn’t have to pay top dollar for such a mess. Make sure lots are in good condition before renting.

Great group weekend getaway. Brian & Nicole went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, provide us with anything we needed, and have lots of entertainment to entertain all ages. Thank you.

Would have been a perfect stay in the new 200 section. We felt crowded in the 100 section. Staff was amazing! Very clean and well maintained. Lots of activities!

Our cabin was great - I think we had the best one on the premises. The rest of the park was pretty tightly packed. They had fun things for the kids, though - bounce pillow, crafts, pool, playground, etc. It was a nice, restful getaway out in nature.

We had a great time especially the kids. They enjoyed all the activities and said they really really liked the Mega Slide! Nicole and Ryan were wonderful hosts. Thank you again!

Great communication throughout our entire stay. The deluxe cabin had way more to offer than we expected.

I’m a single mom with 3 kids. This is a fantastic getaway for us! We come annually and it’s always a blast with plenty of things to do for the kids. We will continue to come back!

Our stay started off a little rocky, regarding the site I had booked, but after I talked to Brian, we got it all straightened out and we had an excellent stay! Very good people there, very clean and safe campground. It’s what I would call a “real” campground that is away from civilization and the everyday rat race. Very secluded and quiet. Now one our favorites, will definitely be back.

To begin, the cabin we stayed in was absolutely gorgeous! But, for $190 a night I was completely shocked by the fact that they do not give little complementary coffee for the room, and no towels anywhere on the cabin. The TV was staticky on every single channel, if you want sheets or any bedding it was an extra $60 charge, they charge $50 for your animal EVEN if they’re service dogs.

It was Awesome the cabin was fantastic and the staff was extremely attentive and there were so many activities for kids. I can't say enough good things about this campground we loved that they allowed pets in the deluxe cabins we wish more KOAs would allow them in deluxe cabins. We will definitely be returning to the Ludington East KOA several times in the future

Paid $15 for a wkd slide bracelet that could only be used for a couple 1 hr time frames. When my 4 year old went to the office to trade in his bracelet for a new one he was told if he came back again he would have to pay $15 (it was his first time) Lots of sand, old playground, activities that all evolve around spending more money yet I didn’t know about any of these activities prior to arrival

Had a great time. Kids had a ball too with a the activities. Also gave us a free upgrade to a better site for us.

Have been coming to this KOA since Joel and Lydia (hope I got the names correct) purchased it. It gets better each year! Love staying here. Can’t say enough good things! Fun for whole family, very clean, staff is VERY helpful and friendly ALL the time!

I liked much about Ludington East KOA. The campground has a fun vibe and the employees were working hard on a busy night. My only complaint is the poor access to WiFi/mobile connections. I realize that camping is an experience best remembered for quiet and getting away from busy life. There are times, however, where staying connected is essential and I could not do this well while at this KOA.

The KOA was clean & nice. We stayed 5 nights & the kids enjoyed the bounce pad & play ground. The large slide was closed, never got to try it. This KOA rates low due to the management being very unprofessional. They made multiple rude comments. Implying that if we can’t follow the rules, there would be consequences. Referring to a 2 year old climbing the slide. We will NOT return. Not friendly!

If your staying during the week NOTHING exciting goes on at all, they save it for the weekends apparently. WIFI is a joke too, you have to go sit by the office if you need it, not convenient.1 of the reasons i choose this KOA is because of the slide, not open at all while we were there! The website description is very deceiving! We �ϋ� KOA's but will not be returning to this one, not worth the

While it rained quite a bit one of our days, the staff still made sure to keep activities going as they could. They went above and beyond with replacing our wet wood with dry amongst other things. The team was super friendly and everything was very clean! Definitely would recommend and plan to visit again in the future!

This has been one of our best stays at a koa!

We enjoyed our time at this campground and all the people were very friendly and helpful to our questions and needs. The only problem was with the internet as they had a lightening strike and were using their backup system. The good news is that a total upgrade is scheduled by the end of the year. I’m sure that we’ll be back again.

Loved the different activities they had for kids and adults. Brian and his wife were wonderful and helped make the stay enjoyable. Also loved the feel of a small campground, even though there are plenty of sites. Nice and quiet.

Fantastic fun for the whole family because the owners go all out to make your stay warm and friendly. Kids have a ton of stuff to keep them busy.

We had a great first time experience at KOA Ludington East/Pere Marquette River. The owners and staff were friendly and incredibly accommodating. We were updated by text message of campground events, office hours, we were able to have wood and ice delivered right to our camp. Our kids (7 & 9) loved the playground, pool, slide and jumping pad, and all the other activities. Would come back for sure!
Aug 14, 2023
What a wonderful stay! I received texts the night before and day off about my upcoming stay and specific directions how to get there! They kept us updated by text, we were able to order and check out through text. Had wonderful events for the kids, were super friendly and accommodating! We will definitely come back here again! Thank you!!

The campsite was fine, definitely can see the appeal for families. Wish there were more trees and grass and the campsites are super close together. The bathrooms were well maintained.

This location truly deserves a 5 star rating. Why? Because from the moment of arrival, we felt cared about! Friendly service, accomodating amenities and the overall feel that they do what they do to provide a great experience for everyone!!!

Stayed last summer with family. Lots of activities for the kids. Pool area is nice. The male owner was fun, nice, and helpful. We didn't care for the site we had and he showed us around and moved us. Wish the roads would have been paved so kids could ride bikes/ scooters everything is large gravel and rocks. Staff was helpful and delivers fire wood. Kinda a haul to Ludington.
