Payments – Payment must be made in full at the time of making reservations.

Processing Fee – There is a $5.00 non-refundable processing fee per individual campsite, cabin or pavilion reserved.

Minimum Stay Restrictions – A two/three-night minimum stay restriction is in place for reservations made at Coldwater and Herrick parks via the website. To make a reservation for a campsite or cabin that is only available for one night at either of these parks, call the Parks Main Office at (989) 317-4083.

Cancellations – Cancellations can now be completed online by the customer or by calling the Parks Main Office. The only option for refund is to be refunded the way in which you paid.

Group Reservations – You will need the name, address, phone number and email (email optional) of at least one person (18 years or older) staying overnight on each site. The main contact person must be different for each site reserved. Payment must be made in full at time of making reservations.

Multiple Reservations – If interested in booking multiple reservations for separate time frames, you can do so in one checkout. Add separate stays to your cart and check out from there. Example: you reserve June 16-18 as well as July 14-16; both stays can be added to your cart and you can check out at one time.

30+ Consecutive Night Reservations – 30+ consecutive night reservations can be made online for Herrick Park. Discounted rates for these reservations will automatically be applied if reserving on the same campsite. If you wish to move to more than one campsite within your 30+ night reservation, please contact the Parks Main Office. 30+ consecutive night reservations at Coldwater, where available, can be reserved online at the standard $25 nightly rate. To receive discounted rates for these reservations at Coldwater, you must add your name to a lottery list for the next camping season by calling the Parks Main Office at (989) 317-4083.

You must cancel the original reservation and reserve again or call the Parks Main Office at (989) 317-4083.

Online Cart – There is a 20-minute cart time limit from the time you add a site to your cart. If you are adding multiple sites to your cart, the 20-minute time frame will restart every time you add a new site. You will receive a warning notice when you have 5 minutes remaining. If you click “Confirm” on the timer running out warning, your timer will reset to 20 minutes. After 20 minutes of inactivity, sites are removed from cart and made available for others to reserve.
