I think this was my favorite park this year. Such beautiful beach areas and the water was amazing. The campsite itself was spacious, 50 amp, but a good amount of the sites are not level. Bathrooms and showers were cleaned daily and free. Definitely bring shower shoes because they can get dirty quickly between cleanings.

We took the short loop on a blustery March afternoon. There was a warning that water levels on the trail were high but we went for it anyway. We saw a few birds, squirrels and deer duing the hike through waterlogged trails. There were lots of downed trees, most cut out of the way but we still had to climb over a few. Overall a good adventure!

It was a chilly fall weekend but it was a nice campground. Hoping to come back next summer. The beach looked nice and sandy and most of the sites looked shady.

Clean, level, well placed campground right on lake charlevoix with swimming at a gorgeous beach. The lights from the bathrooms were a little annoying at night but our spot was right by the woods and water spout. Will go again.

Can’t go wrong with Michigan State Parks. Haven’t been to Young in years but I am happy to be back. Shower facilities are very nice, and even have a camp store with ping pong + ice cream. Great state park :-)
