Right in the beautiful Northwestern Lower Peninsula of Michigan, only 15 minutes from Traverse City, the Cherry Capital of the World. Traverse City KOA is the home of 119 sites, both sunny and shaded, ranging from rustic tent sites to FHU Deluxe, as well as Kamping Kabins and Kamping Lodges to meet all your camping needs. Whether you are just passing through seeing Michigan's splendor or taking an extended family getaway, Traverse City KOA has amenities for the whole family to make your stay one to remember.

Cool off on those summer days in our sparkling heated outdoor swimming pool or challenge the family to a game of miniature golf, basketball, volleyball or horseshoes. To make your camping experience as convenient as possible we offer a well-stocked General Kamp Store, complete with camping/RV accessories, groceries, souvenirs, and movie rentals. Stay connected with business or family with KOA Net-Connect in the store or at your site with wireless-internet service.

The Traverse City area has many rewarding attractions to visit, including, but not limited to the Sleeping Bear Sand dunes, local orchards, wineries and vineyards. Come have fun in the sun at the delightfully charming Grand Traverse Bays, where you can rent boats or jet skis, go parasailing or just lounge on one of the many beaches. Or hit the links and play some of the 40+ golf courses within one hour of our campground. The Traverse City area also boasts an abundance of lakes and rivers where you can fish or canoe.

Our friendly staff looks forward to serving you and making your visit to our Traverse City camping resort as memorable as possible.

It was an opportunity for David and Cathleen Kuebler that came at the "right time - right place" when they purchased their KOA campground in 1994. David was an executive director, and Cathleen worked in daycare. The campground was not originally a KOA campground, but they were able to turn their vision into reality and bring KOA to Traverse City. They had not planned on owning the KOA, but when the opportunity presented itself, they snatched it up.

"Customers make our business," said Cathleen. "This is the kind of campground worth making it back to again and again." David and Cathleen take pride in the campground cleanliness, the family-oriented nature of their KOA, and in keeping people happy. "We are happy to have them," Cathleen commented about her guests. Returning campers attest to their excellent customer service.

In their spare time, David likes to go fishing, while Cathleen dabbles into everything, including painting and stained glass work.
