My boyfriend and I live on opposite edges of the state during the summer and we want to go camping. I love camping but I don't want to be crowded by RV's and people using toasters. I would like to just go somewhere and put up a tent, build a fire and try to spook each other with scary stories. Is there a place like this somewhere in the middle of the state? I live outside of Detroit and would like to meet him about half way.
Answer
I recommend either 1] Forest Service Campgrounds; 2] Forest Service Dispersed Camping.
Huron-Manistee National Forest.

Where is your favorite place to go camping in Michigan?

I am looking to go camping for 2 to 4 days. Prefferibly somewhere on or near a lake that has a wide range of activities. Idealy not any further than 5 hours drive from the Detroit area. Any places that fit some or most of that criteria that you have been to?
Answer
There are many good camping locations in Michigan. The State of Michigan has a camping search engine that may help.

Click campground map on the left menu for a by County map search. Reservations can be made online or by phone from each campground website.
"Wide range of activities" Some places have less that are close. If you are looking for a sandy beach without rocks in the water try looking at Sterling State Park DownRiver, Brighton Recreation Area, P.J. Hoffmaster around Muskegan, Grand Haven State Park, or Ludington State Park.
My personal favorite is Ludington, that would be at the 5 hour mark depending upon you driving speed.
