Amazing Campgrounds in the United States

Not all campgrounds are created equal. Some are just, well, campgrounds. Some are so horrible you will want to leave right away and never come back. But then there are the ones that leave you speechless. They’re in a beautiful area, offer great amenities, feature perfect sites, and you won’t ever want to leave. These are the amazing campgrounds we’ve found that have a “Wow!” factor to them.

While you camp you can head through the Bankhead National Forest which is great for bird watching, horseback riding, or visiting Bee Branch which is a 500-year-old poplar tree that is 150-feet tall!

Haines Hitch-up RV Park | Haines, Alaska

Located in the Northern Region of Alaska’s inside passage is the city of Haines which is one of the few communities in the region that is connected to Canada by road. This is where you will find Haines Hitch-up RV Park. With 92 roomy sites, 20 of which are pull-thru, they have plenty of room for RVers.

Ludington State Park | Ludington, MI

Ludington, Michigan

We couldn’t leave off our home state of Michigan and one of the best campgrounds “the mitten” has to offer. Located along gorgeous Lake Michigan, Ludington State Park offers beautiful accommodations and a lot to do. Since this city isn’t a huge tourist area, it offers a serene area to relax and enjoy yourself. You can rent a boat and venture out onto “the Big Lake” for a day filled with swimming, fishing, and relaxing. Or stay on land and partake in hiking, hunting, metal detecting, the nature programs, wildlife viewing, and touring Big Sable Point Lighthouse. The park offers four different camping areas, each with their own charm. The Beechwood, Pines, and Cedar Campgrounds offer electrical services and modern restrooms, while the Jack Pine Hike-In sites are rustic with no amenities. You can’t even drive to them, as the name implies.

These are just some of the campsites we’ve found that had us saying “wow!” There are many more out there that may be hidden gems waiting to be discovered. What are some of the amazing campgrounds you’ve visited? Let us know in the Comments section below! We’d love to hear from you!
