It’s a beautiful park that’s well maintained. The beach is clean, they use a beach comber rake machine. During the week it’s pretty empty and the restrooms are very clean and have charging ports. On weekends there are more people and restrooms may need more attention which is understandable. Animals are not allowed on the beach portion. The bike trail has an air compressor to fill your tires. Plenty of grills and picnic tables nicely spread out. Excellent fishing piers. It’s a very laid back hidden gem and I highly recommend it for a relaxing time in a clean environment. I wish Belle Island was as clean as Pontiac Lake.

We love going to Pontiac Lake camp ground. It's very local but when camping it feels like you're in the woods, but if you need anything (or to run home) it's very close. Been to the place many times. If you're camping you have access to the lake as well which is awesome. Many sites are tucked into spaces covered with trees on both sides and other spaces are much bigger for groups. But you miss out on most of the shade so pop up canopies...

This is the Worst state park in michigan.. Mosquito infested , standing water on sites. Site listed as accepting my 5thwheel site was to small. Will NEVER go back untill they update drains to eliminate standing water are done. This campground is Not large unit friendly.. Do Not go there you will regret it. And if you do you better have lots of bug spray and Boots!...
